    Default Solved: 50s-60s instrumental

    The other day at work I heard this tune and the fact that I don't know its name has been bothering me ever since. I don't know much about it since it's an instrumental and text would fail to describe the tune. However, I do know that the station played on the PA where I work usually plays stuff from the 50s and 60s. I also recorded myself humming the tune and uploaded it to a website:

    Even if it turns out that you don't know the tune, the comedy value might be worth a listen. :-P

    I believe you are humming the theme from an early sixties TV Western show.
    Something like "High Chaparral" or "Big Valley".
    Them that can, do; them that can't... memorize Artist and Title

    Thanks Dapps. You put an end of me pathetically trying to remember what theme music (tv or movie) I'd heard in the last year that was a pretty close fit as well (though the music I had in mind was more subdued / mellow) but more probably "inspired" by Telstar as well.
