Paul Henning’s The Ballad of Jed Clampett, recorded by Jerry Scoggins and the great Flatt and Scruggs was memorable; theme songs from
Bewitched and Captain Kangaroo were too.
Also, one can’t talk about television theme songs and music without mentioning the late David Rose, aka Ray Llewellyn, who wrote the themes of Highway To Heaven, Little House, Bonanza, Leave It To Beaver, Highway Patrol and others. Rose’s orchestra also anchored popular TV shows, most notably Red Skelton’s.
