I agree with all that Autumn Thunder is a superb collection. As I recall, I had read about it for months and pre-ordered it on Amazon when it came out (2004, I believe). I wish it had even more of Sam Spence's older music (with all due respects to Messrs. Hedden and Robidoux, I enjoy their music also).
I have the original 5 fan LPs from the '70's, and I'm kinda old-school about it.
As others have said, there are many of Sam's cues I'd prefer over some that were included, particularly some that were used in the TV series This Week In Pro Football, and Championship Games Of The NFL. I think some of the best are several cues used in the Super Bowl V Highlights show that didn't make the AT collection.
I've attached a link for anyone interested: http://www.hulu.com/watch/123660/super-bowl-highlights-1971-super-bowl-v-baltimore-colts-vs-dallas-cowboys
Don't get me wrong, I treasure my AT and I appreciate NFL Films for making it! If anyone knows where some of the older Spence cues that weren't included can be found, please post! Thanks! - jack

Jack,
Thanks for posting this. I've been a Colt fan since that very season when I was eight years old, so I'll be checking this out from time to time. I just recently purchased Autumn Thunder, and it's a great set which includes many of my favorites from the old weekly highlight shows. Before I purchased, I read the reviews on Amazon, etc., several of which mentioned that there are still many classic pieces left out. I now understand some of these reviews a little better after stumbling upon this site the other day: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cbbyjsg2e0
I was able to quickly recognize about a half dozen or so on this clip that are not on AT or Power and the Glory. I don't mean to steal any of Sam Spence's thunder here, but perhaps many or even most of the missing familiar classics were actually composed by others as it appears that Beverly Hermann and Martha Jane Weber were solidly in the NFL Films mix.
Hope you all enjoy this clip.
RD
