original music from the TV series Danger, with guitar composed by Tony Mottola and vocals by The Ray Charles Singers

kindly note I do not have access to a working record player so the records have been visually checked only - one record seems to have spots like foxing, one has a series of small scratches

 

Tony Mottola was a guitarist and composer who became a regular accompanist for Frank Sinatra.

In 1951 Mottola became the musical director for the CBS drama series Danger, which was directed initially by Yul Brynner and then Sidney Lumet, and showcased such young, unknown actors as James Dean, Sal Mineo and Rod Steiger. The theme music featured a single, repeated note interrupted by a dramatic chord. To the public, it was "the Danger chord": within the industry, it was "the Tony Mottola chord". Mottola only had three days to write the music for each episode, which would be played live.
