NFL Music Question

[SeahawkFever]

Awhile back I came across this one great, dramatic piano driven music track that was used in the “America’s Game” series as well as 100 Greatest Players called “Pony Pride”.

I did a search and came across the track clean with no narration on this one NFL Music Library website but the site would only let me listen to the first 30 seconds of the track without an account so I tried to create an account there.

They never approved of it, and I asked by email but was never told why. If it’s a site that is only for more specific people such as people who license their work and not for the general public then I’d completely understand. Is it only intended for those types of users?

Either way, thought I’d mention that Pony Pride is one of my favorite NFL Films music tracks that I cannot listen to on its own.

One other that I will mention is the dark, swirling synthesizer in “the Man in the Funny Hat” piece on Tom Landry in the part about eight or nine minutes in where John Facenda said “No one has penetrated the gunfighter stare, the grim face that makes him look like a regional director of the FBI, or a bruting hamlet.”

That's correct, production houses such as NFL Films tend to only make their material available to media outlets, not individual consumers. I have quite a bit of their music (although not the track you're looking for), and I've gotten most of it from other collectors who owned LPs or CDs of that material -- which is how clients would receive it back when those formats were the standard.

That makes sense.

I presume that means that after physical albums and CD’s of production music become less standard a method of distribution that newer production tracks from the last 15-20 years or thereabouts are pretty much unretrievable in full unless you are a media outlet. (I’d imagine Pony Pride would have been recorded in the early to mid 2000’s if it was America’s Game where I was mostly hearing it)

One more thing for reference. That Man in the Funny Hat synth can be heard at 9:15 in this video: https://youtu.be/heMA0D9aGMs?is=JjT-piqRs9mD3OPn
