Hill Street Blues. I first saw some episodes in 1981 on my first trip to the USA (LA). It was a new style of TV drama at the time mixing so many elements and had a great theme tune by Mike Post with Larry Carlton on guitar 👍👍👍
I was told I'd be allowed to stay up for Hill Street Blues once I learned to play the theme tune. They even bought me the sheet music. Unfortunately for them, that was a great motivator and I'd learned it within a couple of weeks, so they had to backtrack apologetically and say I could watch it the following year. Even since that time, Eb has been my strongest key on piano, because of that theme.
Absolute delight to meet you this year. Here’s to an inspired 2025.
You too John, thank you for everything.
