We're always looking back at the history of popular music to find inspiring sounds and melodies. In many cases, the most well-known and recognizable tunes come from a different medium altogether: TV. From nostalgia-rich classics played by the likes of Howard Roberts, to the contemporary favorites you skip over as you binge watch on Netflix, there's no lack of infectious hooks to find in the annals of television. Take a look at the video above as local riff-master Joe takes a play from our pals at the Chicago Music Exchange and leads us on a journey through 100 TV theme songs.
For this marathon, Joe is playing a lovely Nash JM63 through an Earthquaker Dunes and Levitation, an Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail, a Fulltone Catalyst and a DD-5 Delay, all running into a Tone King Falcon combo.
Of course, there are a lot more than 100 classic TV themes, and we couldn't include them all. One of your favorites not make this edition of #RiffMarathons? Let us know in the comments.

LOONEY TUNES (reprise)
Good guitar player, what impresses me the most is his memory. Holy shit, I can't remember how to play "that one riff" I made up the night before, this guy remember a hundred at a time, lol props bro, props.
hes most likely got a list off screen telling him whats next
@@finncullen7548 but he still has to remember how to play it...
LOL, I swear, the whole video I was just waiting for Seinfeld, and I can't really decide if I am disappointed or not.
Same I know!
i was waiting for twin peaks
Beverly Hillbillies
The seinfeld theme is more of a slap bass thing
Seinfeld? Come on! As far as themes go, it was nothing. ... The comedy was A+.
As cool as this was, how are you gonna have that guitar/amp combo and not do Hawaii Five-0?
for more than happy to do the needful and I am going on in your life in a couple weeks and we are looking to get the chance of getting it done by tomorrow afternoon to your account at all possible for us know when the weather has a good idea for you are interested please just send the message to us by replying please let you
+Phil Fox I know i was thinking that as well
@@karissagrigsby8360 Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, I was taking a shit. Now... what is it that you want?
The jump to color in the middle of Bewitched was a nice touch.
5:34 - 5:37 was an absolute masterpiece.
I love it, you guys.
Kurie Gongub haha thanks!
@@Reverb Tabs?
This guy is a force of nature. Isn't there an award for this sort of thing?
Playing is insane, but I can't get over how cumbersome a lot of the reverb is. Some of them are unrecognizable because of how wet the reverb is.
I agree, game of thrones is a good example
well, to be fair, look to the channel's name..
Joe, you are the consummate professional. After hearing this, I now know you can play anything! Joe, you rock!
Nice to see someone repping Twin Peaks!
Taylor Fitzpatrick Your picture is gonna give me nightmares
Taylor Fitzpatrick nice pic
The Power of the middle position of Jazzmaster is in your hand, young Padawan!
Just stopping in to watch again. One of the greatest videos of all time.
I love that Les Paul style played wb tune reaching the end. Fits so well!
Incredible what a cool tones you can get with a Jazzmaster and a little tube amp,... And reverb!
Taking a walk down memory lane and its on a Jazzmaster, that rocks!!
I love the infusion of raw talent and silly humor! All you needed was the NBC jingle! ;)
Very impressive. How many takes?
I had a Friend that Could play Theme's As well as you ! He died of a Heart attack.
Does my heart good to Hear and see Talent Lives forever, Keep Rockin"
Harry Martin Sorry to hear that. Glad we could give you a little happiness and a little reminder of your friend! Thanks for sharing :)
A true ode to the Tone King Falcon Grande! A great amp gloriously put through all the paces here.
this is the most incredible thing i've seen/heard ever on this site!
YES! #59 Ren & Stimpy theme rocks!
I'd love 2hear the full version!
Oddly enough this is one of the most enjoyable music videos I've seen
Guess I stopped watching TV shows with themes after 1987. After that I watched Classic TV reruns and documentaries. Newhart, The Waltons, Barney Miller, Laverne and Shirley, CHIPS. There are so many. More please.
The guitar by itself is fantastic. However the subtle references (black and white to color, MTM hat toss, etc), and the transition decisions on which song and how much of it to play added a whole ‘nother layer of creativity. A true tribute to Americana!
Awww, You killed it! You put a Jacked Wax on that Fine Green Machine. Thank you Dude.
That was fun hearing stuff i grew up with like the Munsters, Magnum, Rockford Files (reminds me of my dad), Doug (just watched the movie on vhs the other day), Animaniacs (high school days after school). Thanks for the trip down memory lane because so many of the early songs remind me of my child hood and of when my dad was still alive, God bless you guy's.
5:53 thank you so much for including twin peaks in this!
All in one take! IMPRESSIVE.
Jurassic Park, Star Wars, Doctor Who Themes.
Time to make round two!
Epic video.
Jurassic park wasnt a tv show
2 of those are movies
Well there are Star Wars shows out there. Clone wars
Jurassic Park and Star Wars aren’t TV shows
Wow Joe, your not only a great guitar player, but also a superb entertainer haha! You really seem like you'd be great fun to hang out and jam with.
awesome coated awesomeness with awesome filling. you guys just brightened my morning.
5:03 a lightbulb of the Reverb lamp dies
That light was out at the start, came back on, and went out again.
Watch all videos made after this and see how long it took for them to change it.
Has anyone done this yet? Please report back with the answer lol
Futurama's theme is epic.
:)
This deserves more than 3,000 likes
I love watching Joe perform! Does he have any original music I can listen to? Crazy talented dude
Yes, Sam Johnston! You can check Joe's band out at bigparaid.com . Thanks for watching!
I am not sure of what I am impressed with more. Is it that the medly is performed so well? Or, is it that the player is so young that these songs he performed existed in their hey day decades before he was born? Either way, Kudos to a great job!!!!! Cheers!
When he gets to taxi theme.... yo, keep playing.. that was fire!!!
X-Men's theme rocks pretty hard. Glad it was included. Well done my friend.
Love it!!! You are so talented Joe! Miss seeing your smiling face. Hope all is well with you. Take care.
Surprised myself on how many I remembered. Very good.
6:17 I'm a huge Rugrats fan!
Okay I think I definitely cried, especially with Seinfeld, Frasier, F.R.I.E.N.D.S, 3rd rock and the Rugrats
Great medley!
WKRP, Night Court, Northern Exposure?
How about both the opening _and_ closing themes from WKRP? The closing theme is awesome!
Hearing the Mad Men theme brings back so many memories.
Damn this guy can play! Awesome job Reverb.
Becker!!! Cmon!!! Great show and a badass bluesy intro song... great job regardless!
Well done!!! Loved it!!!
the mary tyler moore theme sounded so rad with the reverb
Dat seinfeld bit mang. You guys are awesome. All the Love.
How come Corey in tho use wasn't on here
It was too good of an anime
The DDG Archive 461 I preferred the manga
Wow!That's really cool.You've made my day better.
Impressive. Must have took a long time to work it all out like that. Cool.
That's a sweet guitar and a great player. Well done.
Wow you blew me away. awesome. some achievement. made me laugh to.. You ought to have your own show. Real talent. Well done. Brought back some great memories. Thank you. Greetings from Nottingham Uk. Amazing.
Thanks for the kind words! And thanks for watching
This was sheer brilliance so cool well done mate.
Part 2: King Of The Hill, Big Bang Theory, Muppet Show, Fraggle Rock, Magic School Bus, Duck Tales, Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, Ed Edd N Eddy. Maybe you could do a separate kids show medley?
And American Horror Story
Jokuman YES DOCTOR WHO
and Barney Miller
Seasame Street
@@brandonquod4910 NO
You played Office US without playing the UK theme? Other than that, great vid. Loved that you included Arrested Development. Wish more people knew it.
LOVED IT! Incredible virtuosity. What a player! Not to mention I could never play all of those in one take without making a mistake!
this was so awesome. Twin Peaks was beautiful. I was waiting for Walking Dead thoughhhhhh!!!
Loved every second of this
why didnt they just give him a bass guitar for seinfield
Comic relief
Having the theme to Community would have been a fun inclusion. Perhaps on another video??
I wish I could hit the like button 100 times ! lol
joe is sick. I'm gonna check him out on his album. And i love you guys on royale as well.
Very good job. I probably didn't know half the songs. It was good enough for me to subscribe! Actually the three Stooges is " Three Blind mice ".
I feel I owe this man a drink.
this guy kills it everytime
This video made me wanna get into Guitar again. Thank you
From the 30-40 shows I know about, I think he absolutely nailed the True blood and Arrested Development themes.
I must learn all these immediately!
a job well done in moving so quickly from one theme song to another without hesitations or errors.
What an incredible artist !!
No way did you get that in fewer than 10 takes. Masterful. Was waiting on Twiglight Zone, Ren & Stimpy and Twin Peaks, great intros, also Casualty, The Bill, Still Game and 999, but you lot don't get those.
Thats a beautiful guitar
Bravo, Sir. Bravo!
That feeling of nostalgia though
part 2 with knight rider, red dwarf, doctor who, sherlock, adventure time, mork and mindy
Naturally.
YES!!!
and Firefly
Mitchell Smith oh definitley
Happy Tree Friends & LazyTown should be on here too!
That’s fantastic guys
Dude your amazing a guitarist after my young days.....
Incredible ! Fantastic!
incredible! Respect man!
Absolutely love this!
Great guitar/amp choice
This is SPECTACULAR ! TY
Totally awesome guys!
Hawaii 5 0
Hawaii fiveo
That was awesome!!
1:35 #16 - the Munsters. I knew I heard it before :)
Fall Out Boy used it in Uma Thurman ^^
FALL OUT BOY
Kyosika yeah but for some fucking reason they dont get sued for stealing a riff unlike led zeppelin or taking a chord progression.... fall out boi fr took note for note
ZosoJuan They might have bought the rights
- BasketballPlayingGuitarist - They did indeed get permission to use it, which is why they aren’t being sued. Also the profits are split between them and the original artist who created the Munsters theme.
Fucking fall out boy of course...
this is incredible
Man, he killed it!! Woow!
Fantastic! Wickedly entertaining!
The Effort! Thumbs up!!!
that beetle juice sample gave me goosebumps
Still one of the best videos on YT of killer guitar playing. Killer work.
What kind of reverb is he using to get that drippy surfy reverb? Sounds really good
Fabian Salomonsson Tone King Falcon Grande and it has built in reverb with separate mix and dwell controls
Absolutely glorious.
AWESOME. Congratuwelldone on your talent.
do you how to sweet pic??? your very talented in playing classic television themes will you do a video on classic cartoons theme songs next ???
I had no idea Dweezil was so versatile. Takes after his dad!
Great job!
That was awesome!
I was waiting for Step By Step, it has one of the best guitar intro themes ever!
But cool vid anyway, congrats! =)
