[original title: "Bob Hope Presents The Chrysler Theatre"; and comedy-var. shows titled: "Chrysler Presents a Bob Hope Special"; dramatic anthology epsides syndicated under the title: "Universal Star Time"] [the series began as a dramatic anthology with Bob Hope introducing the dramatic episodes and occasionally playing dramatic roles in them; sometimes these shows were comedy variety specials and other events more like a traditional Bob Hope Special show with guests.] (NBC Primetime, 1963 - 1967)
[BMI alternate title: "Chrysler Theatre"; Copyright notice title: "The Chrysler Theatre Theme", from "The Chrysler Theatre"; Title on Manuscript: "Bob Hope Presents The Chrysler Theatre Theme" including "Thanks For The Memory".] [Although credit is given on the manuscript to "Thanks For The Memory", this THEME only has the briefest resemblance to the old Bob Hope-associated song. Most of this theme is original material - a "studio marquee" bright tempo intro seques into a broad dramatic theme which might be thought of as a very loose "interpretation" of the motif of "Thanks For The Memory". It is actually vintage Johnny Williams in the best tradition.] Composer: John Towner Williams (ASCAP/BMI) [formerly known as Johnny Williams] 1978 Publisher: Duchess/Hawaii Music (BMI) 2000 Publisher: Duchess/Hawaii S/A div. of Duchess Music (BMI) c/o MCA Music, of New York, NY Copyright Date: Oct. 2, 1963; EU 792 317.
