The Sunday Tune "Cricket Music"

I thought I would stick with the Cricketing theme for what I will now refer to as "The Sunday Tune"

In the good old days of British Television Sport (before Rupert Murdoch bought everything in sight, modernized everything and removed any hint of soul from the preceedings) the BBC's crowning glory was it's coverage of International Cricket. Generations of British schoolboys will recall with great glee, returning home on late summer evenings, having played cricket all day...just in time to listen/watch Test Match Special, The BBC´s long running Cricket Programme.

This golden age of BBC Sport was enhanced no end by the genius use of a then little known instrumental track as the programme's theme music. It is called "Soul Limbo" and is by Booker T and the MGs (of Green Onions fame). A most unlikely choice for the dusty old codgers of the Cricketing fraternity, this ever so friendly, happy, infectious piece of music has passed in to legend and is known the world over as "The Cricket Music"

Warm beer, the Sunday papers, deck chairs around the village Cricket ground, the smell of freshly cut grass, and the Cricket Music....aah...happy days!
