Sam Moore music list


acadiel

Recommended Posts

Do we have a master list if all the Basic music coded by Sam Moore Jr?

 

If not, lets start here.....  dump songs below.  I’ll compile them into a master disc and put a menu on them.

 

They are all scattered ... some I found on BBSes, some on TigerCub, and some on the DTIHCG disks.

I'm very much interested in this. I enjoyed a lot of the "music videos" when I was a kid. 

 

He also wrote a game called "Swords" which I adapted for online play on TI-Net BBS. It was a simple RPG where you were prompted to make choices.

A modern equivalent is "Realm" on the iPhone.

 

 

Yup!  I was thinking it was called like 'Swords and Sorcery' or something like that- I'm pretty sure it's on the TI GameBase.

Just from memory. Some of these may be by others. I look forward to revisiting these.

 

Moonlight Sonata
Killing Me Softly
Yesterday
Yes We Have No Bananas
A 5th of Beethoven
Bumble Boogie
You're So Vain

 

Come to think of it, another programmer Stephen Foster was prolific.. I wonder if I have some of his in there.

Here's what I recollect the full names are for these:

 

Amazing Grace
A 5th of Beethoven
Berceuse
Boogie Oogie
Bugle Boogie
Bumblebee Boogie
Doggone Boogie
Forest Rose
In the Mill
Ode to Puppytown
Venetian Boat Song
Venus Rhapsody (I believe this was an original composition)
Western Boogie
Yesterday

 

Still at the office for another couple of hours- just been one of those days.  I know I have at least two and up to four or five disks at the house. 

 

If you are interested, I also had a thread last year about an incomplete game I'd found called 'Caveman'.  Thanks to this super community there's a .ZIP of the file in the thread.

 

Dad was with TI for about 24 years, but my memory says that he didn't leave on good terms in the late 90s because of the defense economy/state of the site he was working at.  His full time job was Electrical Engineer- he did Smart Missile stuff (Paveway, among others) and worked in their transformer shops in Sherman and Denison.  I know he also worked in Richardson but I think that was in the mid 70s before I was born.

 

This is what I remember, anyway- I was pretty young and he doesn't talk about it much.

The Sam Moore music programs were some of my favorites back in the day.  Bill Knecht and a few others come to mind as contributing to the enjoyable music/video "scene".  

 

I just found a disk of Bill Knecht music in the MATIUG library (because grep MOORE matched his comments).

I was not aware of any of his stuff.

sorry i keep moving the goal marker on you guys, home and work life is always crazy crazy crazy.  i did have a few minutes to sit down this morning and jot down the list of what I have.

 

for the most part, i do remember a lot of these and the time dad spent doing it.  I know he came up with some 'tricks' to make coding a little quicker but i think that they were still pretty time-consuming between coding and polishing.  a funny trivia note is on some of the graphics/sprite work he used my coloring books as a guide along with graph paper. :D 

 

He did some other educational-type stuff and a good bit of Ham Radio stuff, but I don't really have any of that around and my memory isn't so great on that piece.

 

i think all of these were submitted by him to TI for their User Submission program and TI accepted a good number of them.  Mom (they're divorced) says that she remembers him being paid pretty good by TI for them.

 

below is the filename list of what i have at the house for dad's songs, for some of the random ones i'd have to load the file and see what the heck it was called.  I don't know that I have anything other than ti-format disks, though, i have to keep looking.

bigcatboog

looking at my stuff, it appears i only have the TI-formatted disks.   That being said, @sparkdrummer a couple years ago sent me a disk image that i've uploaded here- i used to have a program listing but I haven't fired up TI99DIR since i swapped computers recently so not sure what all is here.  :)

I never realized that Sam worked for Texas Instruments at one point. He contributed a number of very good programs to the TIIUG library (one of the authors you kept a watch for) and enhanced a number of others. Thank you for all the music. Many of my diskettes no longer work:(  MikeV.
