    Top Dog' is the long-anticipated fourth album in the de Wolfe commercial series, celebrating 100 years of outstanding production music from the prolific vaults of de Wolfe Top Dogpublishing.

    The 26 tracks on the album are a mixture of some of the nation's favourite television and radio themes including Vision On, Roobarb, Monty Python's Flying Circus, George & Mildred and the classic number one single Eye Level, a.k.a. the theme from Van der Valk. There's also many more iconic and instantly recognisable cues on the album, including some previously unreleased specially composed cues that have never before seen the light of day, even as ‘library' releases. All the tracks have been lovingly re-mastered from the original tapes.
