Jun 27, 2011 - Almost workable. Way too many high strings, the horns work, and the main theme with the minor chord transition works somewhat.

Jul 14, 2011 - Remember this was the 60's. Check out other 60's prog theme tunes, this fits in. NEVER on the Prisoner though!

Sep 26, 2011 - I think they were right to reject this music. Though it may have fitted with 'Living in Harmony' :-).

Oct 18, 2011 - Patriotic French Prissy who holds his head high with nose upturnt. Nausiatingly uptight and entitled.That's how this music sounds.

Nov 2, 2011 - I've been a fan of the Prisoner since Ch4 showed it in '84 and never knew there was this theme. Thank you for the video - this is fascinating stuff. Flippin awful and completely unsuitable but fascinating all the same!
