Score Productions is an
American musical production company specializing in background
music and themes for
television shows. Started in 1963 in a brownstone townhouse on the
Upper East Side of
Manhattan by music producer
Bob Israel,[1] Score has created some of the most recognizable tunes in America — most identifiable by just a few notes.[2]
One of the Score-produced compositions, "
Come on Down", also known as the theme song from The Price Is Right, would eventually become a number one hit on Billboard's
Dance Club Songs Chart for
Crystal Waters in 2001. The single also marked the first time that a television theme song (and one that came from a game show) reached number one on a Dance chart, and the first to feature lyrics.[3]
