WSM intro tune? - mid-60's Ralph Emery talk show
Does anyone remember the name of the intro tune (and artists) for the mid-60's Ralph Emery late night talk show on WSM?
It featured a guitar and steel and was overdubbed by a NASA voice announcing a launch, "T minus 10, T minus 9, . . . " etc)
Thanks, Mike

Paul...<SMALL>The Pete Drake thing is still bugging me....maybe I'll dream about it later tonight and remember what the title was.....</SMALL>
Could you be thinking of "For Pete's Sake" by Pete? I believe that was the theme song used on the Opry for a number of years.

Rose City Chimes is on an Ernest Tubb LP called "Live at the Midnite Jamboree"
In talking with Buddy a few years back, we talked about that LP in detail...
It was NOT in fact a LIVE album..it was all studio and had dubbed in applause and Introductions..
I guess it ws like an early "concept album"...

Ralph Emery always opened his show with Bobby Garrett's "Rose City Chimes." Ralph was a fan of Bobby Garrett and loved the song. I don't ever recall hearing RhodesBud's Boogie played as an intro to Ralph Emery's show on WSM but I guess it could have. "For Pete's Sake" opened the Opry for years until someone deemed it either too country or a steel guitar instrumental and took it off.
