Default Favourite Opening Titles

Yeah I know a lot of shows don't even bother these days (thank you, Madam friggin' Secretary and Billions!) but not that long ago it was cool to watch the opening titles of a series you liked, and some were great. I always loved


and of course, the granddaddy of them all...

OK since you reminded me of The Ventures, I guess I'll post my other favorite instrumental bands (& guitar players).

The Ventures - Hawaii Five-O


DUANE EDDY -"The Ballad Of Paladin" (1962)
Theme song to "Have Gun - Will Travel" (57 - 63)


THUNDERBIRDS THEME - THE SHADOWS


Link Wray - Batman Theme

I almost forgot to mention the theme song to Doctor Who, one of the greatest theme songs of all time.
Doctor Who Theme Tune 1963-1969 by Ron Grainer and Delia Derbyshire
