We would fall asleep watching TV, and then we would wake up to this, turn the TV off, roll over and go back to sleep... Reminds me of being newly married, 20-something, living in our first house off E Stassney in South Austin in the mid-80’s.. Yep ... fell asleep and woke up to this rarely-heard verse of the N.A. many a time. Thanks for posting.
That's my favorite PBS logo ever & I've always loved that technology & the music that went along with it. It'll never be replaced. I wish that this logo would still be on TV today & if it was, it would get the viewers attention today like it did when we were kids. It definitely needs to be brought back.
