Van der Valk

I don't know how common this name is but until tonight I'd only heard of one person. Paul Van der Valk musician and composer of the legendary Imploder music.

Imagine my surprise when I see on the TV guide "Van der Valk" some sort of crime drama.

Have a nostalgic moment and listen to this excellent remix of Paul's most famous tune

I remember watching the TV series in the 80s. The theme song was called Eye Level:

There was also a vocal version:

Whereas this is the original:

I remember this theme tune well, it was one of so many memorable theme tunes that 80s TV did so well, even if I never watched the shows.

You can tell people didn't have many channels to choose from back then. I mean, an entire minute just for the intro...
