The iconic theme tune goes disco.

Have a listen to the theme tune, as it goes disco. There are video grabs of various DALLAS content at the start. Then there is the opening credits of the actors roll, as in every actor who appeared in the opening credits 1978 - '91 (from Barbara Bel Geddes to Sheree J. Wilson) and the three reunion shows, including the 2004 retrospective reunion 'Return To Southfork'. Enjoy!

Obviously fan made but the their choice of music is off. When I think of Dallas I think big, bold and brassy. I prefer a full orchestra with rich sweeping string arrangements with the occasional horn.

Interesting. That sure was a lot of work. Thanks for sharing.

I prefer the full orchestra with lots of brass though.

It's amazing how some characters/actors made it to the opening credits who contributed so little compared to others who didn't despite their contribution.

Morgan Brittany should have made it to the credits at least once.

Morgan should have been in there. She played such a bitch, Pam knew it, so did Bobby in a sore way, Cliff did too and of course J.R. knew she was the queen of bitchs, on his show

That remix is from the Dallas the Music Story album that came out in the mid 80s. I have it both on LP and CD. I got the LP in the 90s and CD about a decade later.

I have it on CD too.

My favourite song is Howards Keel's JR, Who Do You Think You Are!

What a terrific singer & actor he was. :)

I'd like to hear Howard take on the original theme, a cappella 'vocalese' style, with his booming baritone:

Dall-us / Dall-uss / Dall-hall-hal-hal-hal-hall-ussss

...maybe Miss Ellie and/or Donna could plunk out the theme behind him on the Southfork piano to accompany
