Puck Slapping Maple Sucker Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Alexander Courage, who wrote the original Star Trek title theme as well as the scores for numerous television shows and movies, died May 15 in Pacific Palisades, California at the age of 88. The Emmy winning and Oscar-nominated composer had over 90 film and television credits and at least one other TV theme (Judd for the Defense), but he was best known for the exotic, bongo-driven siren song he wrote for the original Star Trek TV series. Full Story R.I.P. Alex "Roddenberry" Courage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmie ray Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 My idiot friends got the band at our wedding to play the Star Trek theme, complete with the female singer wailing Aaaaaaaaaa-aaa-a-a-a. The replication of it by them was amazing, the reaction of the other guests was not. My nickname was "Spock" for many years, before the more affable "jimmie ray" was coined. Admiral Pike rules!!!

*eviljane* Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 I grew up with Star Trek all around me. I remember us getting pizza every night the original series was on. The whole family was together for Star Trek night. Ahhh memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmie ray Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Well, we might as well beam up our favorite episodes? The one where Kirk and Spock fought on the planet Vulcan, when Spock needed to spank off his 7 year boner - that was good!?!?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
