June 15, 201510 yr Member I was watching some episodes of a short lived 1970-1971 series called "The Interns" with Christopher Stone, Mike Farrell etc....on youtube and heard some background music that was later used on Y&R in the 70's/80's. The series was produced by Columbia Pictures. In one scene they were playing background music that I remember seeing in the 1975 Y&R Jennifer Brooks mastectomy episode.

In one scene they were playing background music that I remember seeing in the 1975 Y&R Jennifer Brooks mastectomy ep I guess most of the original background music was borrowed from other series....not necessarily a bad thing cause I thought I heard other soaps did that too.... I still associate the music more with Y&R then where it was originally heard from...haha
June 15, 201510 yr Member Wow ! Thanks for sharing that. So did early Y&R have background music completely borrowed from other Columbia soundtracks or was there original stuff also? That second theme I think was primarily used for Snapper with that languid, brooding music meant to reflect Snapper's personality.
June 15, 201510 yr Member I thought that Y&R hired the composers from Bless the Beast Children to do their music ? They brought music from the film, but figured they also composed original pieces for the show over the years. Sandy DeVore who was a major graphic title maker for movies and TV (the Partridge family opening) created the Y&R logo and did the pencil sketches. When he retired in 1988 they switched to live action shots,
June 15, 201510 yr Member This was pretty common back in the 1980s too, I think. AMC and GH both used background music from Terms of Endearment. AMC also used heavily from St. Elmo's Fire and the Untouchables film.
June 18, 201510 yr Member 70s Fans...a question...In 1976 there was a Photographer that was intent on hurting Chris Brooks. He was played by actor Joel Stedman (Walter Vested, ATWT). Does anyone know anything, like the character's name, about this character?
June 18, 201510 yr Member Does anyone still have the links for the May 1, 16 and October 18, 1990 shows that were originally uploaded by Btm85bubs? I got more episodes from May and October 1990 to share with u guys but wanted to know if anyone still had those episodes?
June 19, 201510 yr Author Member I'm not sure about the last two but I have May 1. Do you want me to upload it?
