Confused dates?

It was composed expressly for the BBC's television series Superstars. In 1971, ABC acquired the rights to use "Heavy Action" as the opening theme music to Monday Night Football

If Superstars didn't start broadcasting until 1973, are we supposed to believe that this music was specifically written for the programme at least two years before it aired? Perhaps the date of 1971 for Monday Night Football acquiring the music is incorrect? Either way, something here seems inaccurate.Cyberinsekt (talk) 23:16, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Quite simply, it wasn't composed expressly for Superstars. It was a library piece, available to whoever wanted to use it (hence its title, which is a kind of "serving suggestion" typical of library music). The article is plain wrong. - 88.111.45.143 (talk) 22:20, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
