@ArgoWho Thank you for posting this clip and for the information. I would love to a have a copy of a newscast from those days, but I would image that, even if one exists, it would be virtually impossible to obtain.

And speaking of the news themes played on WSM-TV, there was a closing theme to every newscasts from "The Scene at 6 & 10" was the song "Let the Children Play" by the Miracles, and it was from the album "The Power of Music". It has both, the instrumental and vocal versions. You should check that out.

You should submit the info to the southernmedia site. They also have some audio clips of other themes WSM used.

This theme was also used at KPRC-TV in the early 70's.

Oh, boy, talk about getting your hopes up! Wouldn't that be something? To see pre-VCR clips of early live local color.

@ArgoWho If you could get a DVD dub, I would love to have a copy... or perhaps you could post the entire documentary on KZbin.

Was this the first theme used when "The Scene at Six and Ten" name began in 1970?
