    I especially like the theme music to MAGNUM, P.I. and HUNTER. I did not know about MIKE POST being a member of THE FIRST EDITION! CLASSIC TV FAN

    I didn’t watch either of those shows, but I remember HSB and ROCKFORD, and I definitely remember Post as a hitmaker. It’s too bad that TV themes aren’t pop songs like they used to be.
