DESCRIPTION:
Music by Ernest Tomlinson to accompany the BBC Test Card!
No wonder it seemed special somehow....... this is probably one of the best loved test-card classics called 'Capability Brown' it is played by the 'Stuttgart Studio Orchestra' and was specially commissioned as 'music for the test card', thus overcoming various copyright issues. On this video I have put together a few other reminders of those now bygone days of analogue colour televsion. Remeber good old 'Ceefax'?
This particular piece of light music was used right up until 1984, only yesterday actually...... Remeber those great sponsored Trade Test Films? The BP films were the best especially James Hill's 'Home Made Car'.... that for me was the most memorable.
The music is from the 'Test Card Classics' album including previously unreleased and original recordings.....
Enjoy, and if you can share the memories of only yesterday!
