Name That Tune
"Name That Tune" had its conceptual origins in an earlier radio and television series, "Stop the Music". "Stop the Music" was created by Mark Goodson, orchestra conductor Harry Salter, and advertising executive Howard Connell. "Stop the Music" relied on studio audience members and random telephone calls to potential viewers/listeners to identify melodies played by an orchestra. "Name That Tune" changed this idea to a head-to-head competition between two onstage contestants.
