Loved, loved, loved the theme from SWAT. And the theme from "Barney Miller,"
had a downright funky bass line.
Two more instrumentals that rush to mind: "pH Factor" by the dB's, and
"Orpheus in Hades Lounge," by Let's Active.
And don't forget "Mr. Moto," and "Wild Turkey." Two great instrumental surf
tunes.
