Cagney & Lacey Theme Music - Full Version (Christine & Mary Beth Mix)

Hope you enjoy this full version of the Cagney & Lacey theme music by Bill Conti. Here is the Christine & Mary Beth Mix - by Cut & Thrust.
Cagney & Lacey is an American police drama television series (produced by Orion Television) that ran for seven seasons from 1982 to 1988. The show is about two New York City police detectives who lead very different lives: Christine Cagney (Sharon Gless) is a career-minded single woman, while Mary Beth Lacey (Tyne Daly) is a married working mother. The series is set in a fictionalised version of Manhattan's 14th Precinct (known as "Midtown South").
Composer Bill Conti is best known for scoring and writing the theme music to the Rocky films, so it’s hardly surprising that his theme music to Cagney & Lacey is so good. For this mix, I’ve used the title music from season 7 (1988) and a saxophone sample from a rare version that was used, occasionally, during the opening titles from season 4.
No copyright infringement intended. This is a tribute remix born out of my love for the show and childhood memories. Copyright belongs to Bill Conti/Orion Television.

Brilliant. Like most USA TV series of the time, each few seasons or so got a different arrangement. 1982-84 was dry room everything (bass, drums , brass and strings) . The sax-heavy Theme from 1984 also introduced the famously 80s Simmons toms before the end of the theme as they go back through the door, then back to the original version in 3-strip stereo for 1986 onwards with the drum track reverbed which was the fashion as we near the end of the 80s where recording bands went out of fashion for a few decades. Ray Pizzi and Ernie Watts played the saxes on all versions with the correct staccato in the places where they are supposed to be unlike nearly all cover re-versions including 'Daniel Caine / The Power Pack Orchestra' which was the first unofficial cover back in 1983.

One of the best themes, can’t get enough of it - this great mix doubles the length!

This and other new additions such as Hart to Hart etc are wonderful. I got excited when I found out you'd added these 😊. This remix of Cagney and Lacey is just fabulous.

[@BetheasByteReloaded]

*chef's kiss* Excellent mix. i loved it.

[@bettyswunghole3310]

I played this tune with my school brass band many years ago...and I don't mind admitting that the intro (and outro) are *_bloody_* difficult!

[@jebeja]

@bettyswunghole3310, what makes it so difficult (being serious here)? One of my favorite show tunes of all time.

[@bettyswunghole3310]

@@jebeja I played the trumpet (badly...) and the intro and outro are so fast that they really tangle your fingers! It's probably easier to play on the sax, as Bill Conti originally intended!

[@Sewmarkfrancis]

A teacher a school wrote a great Saxophone quartet arrangement at the time.

[@filumesemino4635]

Best series ever, Bill Conti's theme is like an anthem for me. Christine and MaryBeth forever

[@ThiloAdamitz]

I love this piece! Any chance you are gonna tackle other 80s themes like those from Dallas, Falcon Crest, Dynasty, The Colbys?

[@garethsuddes5087]

Keep 'em coming!

Awesome as always, please keep doing more!

Géniale, la musique du générique de Cagney et Lacey, moi aussi je les adores. Mes 2 minettes sont super sympas et géniales se sont 2 collègues de travail et amies dans la série et les meilleures amies du monde qui s 'entendent trop bien et qui sont trop cool dans la vraie vie. Christine est ma demi-soeur. On se ressemble un peu car toutes les deux on est blondes. Moi blonde foncée et Chris blonde platine, et on a toute les deux les yeux bleus, la seule différence qu ' il y a c 'est que moi je suis Française et elle, elle est Américaine, que je parle le Français et elle L ' Anglais. Ma Chris est extraordinaire. Elle mérite d 'avoir toutes ses récompenses. Un Emmy Auward deux Golden Globe plus une étoile. Car les efforts ca paye quand on est une super actrice comme Sharon Gless.( Christine Cagney ) Bisous à toi ma puce. FloFlo 🌞😎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎🐎💖💖🖤🖤💖💖🖤🖤💖💖🖤🖤💖💖🎅🎅🎅🎅🎅🎅🎅🍒💋❤😎🌞

Toller mix 👍🏻😉

[@charlieboy77]

Fantastic as ever. If I may add some others worthy of your remix considation: Hill Street Blues Howards Way (Barracuda Theme in particular) Murder She Wrote Juliet Bravo

[@JimmySand9]

This is great. Speaking of US themes, you know what would be sweet? A Steve Dorff medley. He did a lot of Warner's TV themes in the late 80s (not Night Court, unfortunately, but most every other).

[@timvamplew5216]

Please consider doing the almighty “Maze music” from 4 Square. It’s fully deserving subject matter. Thanks!

[@sunnyscott4876]

I wanted to be Chris Cagney so bad. ❤

[@mrb3097]

I'd love to hear you do the Perry Mason theme from the 80s/90s... pretty please ☺️

[@bmasters1981]

And I'd love to hear the one from Trapper John, M.D.

[@TheAbba1964]

Do you do any for other tv shows?

[@zanducktv2398]

Check out the Isolation Creations parody of the titles 🤣
