For the Prevue Channel: "Opening Act" during 1993 until late December.

For Sneak Prevue: The Track that was used for Cable Companies and Sneak Prevue where the announcer said "Follow these instructions and discover the convenience way to exercise your entertainment opinions!" As well as the one from 1996-1997 with the announcer said, "Be the first to see the World Television Premiere direct from Hollywood, right into your own home!".

That 1997 cue was, I believe, "Playing Down Deep" from the FirstCom library.
I also like the rock-sounding cue from 1997 played during sports events.
It starts at 5:26

I never could find that one on Killer Tracks or FirstCom.
I found some of the 1997 cues from unippm.co.uk years ago, but unfortunately,
I cannot find them now.

Um, I don't have just ONE favorite, I have many! :D

1. Rich stud(go to this link and seek at 5:05):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5x8ofTDGQ0
Nice easy listening track.

2. Playing Down Deep(same link as #1, go to 0:23)
Great upbeat track.

3. Light and Easy(Alternate)
The first instance of this piece I heard, was the version WITHOUT the acoustic guitar solo back in 1993 when Sneak Prevue first burst into my living room. To be honest, I like that one better, and after a while they switched it out with the one most of you are hearing now. I hate this one! I want the original solo-less track back. :( The original version was just so.... tranquil. You ever hear music that just makes you fall in love with it? This one was mine.

4. Mystery Track 1(usually plays during coming soon segments)
Here's the link if you wanna hear it(go to 4:12):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuUmFVUcG8g
Very good one, haven't found it in download form.

5. Mystery Track 2
Link is here(first 15 seconds): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKRH8zAkqX8
Very good song I heard in 1995/96, I like this one.

6. Mystery Track 3
You can find this in the audio's right channel of the January 16th 1996 Sneak Prevue LD data that was recently posted here on the forums. The track in question, is specifically at 14:36. They only played this in January 1996 as far as I know. After that, I haven't heard it since.

If you guys can help me find any of these tracks(especially the alternate Light and Easy, or Mystery Track 3), I'd be really grateful! I'll program whatever you want! LOL ^__^

A few years back, I made four instrumental "Sneak Prevue Montages" with music I found from
Killer Tracks, FirstCom, and Atmosphere. Some of them contain music not heard on any of
the laserdiscs (at least not the ones that were uploaded). I'm trying to figure out how to upload these.

Another thing, I always liked the original Reeltalk song (not the 1997 version which uses the
KT song "Hip Hop"). I was always a fan of production music. It just sounds different than
whatever was played on the radio.

My faves are definitely the package of 4 used in the interstitials (when there's no video showing and the Amiga generates text or graphics) plus the music in the intro/outro for prevue tonight, both as seen here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KMxvNdqz9g (prevue tonight right at the start, and the interstitial stuff around 4:20)

So much so I put them in my demo videos when I was developing pgweb :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSwIHoFaAfQ and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMc3mqa8OAM (long version of the prevue tonight music in the 2nd video there!)

Okay, I've uploaded all four Sneak Prevue Montages. These are all instrumental and contain
Sneak Prevue music as well as a little Prevue Channel music.
