Wanted MP3 of UFO Theme

May I gratefully request a mp3 or web link of UFO's opening theme music? I already own The Wedding Present's UFO song, but wanted the original theme music. Also, are there any web pages that have UFO Windows Themes or backgrounds?

Thanks in advance for your help. Tracy

other original music from UFO) at the following web page:

A band called "The Wedding Present" recorded their own version
of the UFO theme around 1992. This is just one of the many cover
versions of the UFO theme made over the years.

I would suggest that it might be a nice idea for us to compile a
CD-R containing all of the various cover versions of the UFO
theme (I own about a dozen!) and offer it for the cost of
materials & postage (or free to those who provide their own
blank CD-R and return envelope/postage), although I wouldn't
even *think* of doing that, since we all know that a nasty
argument about copyright infringement would immediately
occur... :-)

Hi Sheila

*TonyC emerges from a dark corner of his home - ceases lurking for a few
moments.......*

A while ago I MP3'd the B side of a Wedding Present (Leeds based UK band)
single - and put it on the web a while. I think its archived with Marc now?

This B side is a frantic raucous version of the UFO theme!:)

*TonyC slowly creeps back into the dark lurking recesses of his home - to
the sound of creaking floorboards followed by a large - heavy wooden....THUD.
