Bill Conti was an orchestra director by age fifteen. In 1974, he began as a film music director.

John Williams was born on February 8, 1932 in Long Island, New York, USA. In 1948, he moved with his family to Los Angeles… John Dote' (born June 7, 1955 in Bronx, New York City) is a producer, engineer, song writer and record promoter.

Hawaii Five-0 returns to television nation wide this September. Hawaii Five-O aired from September 1968 to April 1980. (Up until recently, it was the longest continuous-running police series in U.S. television history.) With few exceptions, it was filmed entirely on location in Hawaii. Its fans list the authenticity and beauty of the scenery as its number one draw; second come the actors and the characters they portrayed.

Another attraction is the intelligent writing and intriguing plots of the series, and its wonderful title theme (regarded by one critic as "the greatest TV theme of all time") and incidental music. Its authenticity was further enhanced by the use of many local Island residents in guest roles, which for some led to further roles in other series.

Jack Lord played Steve McGarrett, head of an elite state police unit investigating "organized crime, murder, assassination attempts, foreign agents, felonies of every type." James MacArthur played his second-in-command Danny ("Danno") Williams, with local actors Kam Fong, Zulu, Al Harrington, and Herman Wedemeyer, among others, playing members of the Five-O team.

The series was famous for the stellar guest actors who appeared in episodes, including Helen Hayes, Ricardo Montalban, Leslie Nielsen, Herbert Lom, Hume Cronyn, and many more. McGarrett's nemesis, the evil Wo Fat — "a Red Chinese agent in charge of the entire Pacific Asiatic theatre" — was played by Khigh Diegh.

John Dote' arranged, produced and played the drums on Hawaii Five-0 on the classic album Hooked On Themes. The album also contained Dote's productions of Charlie's Angel's, Barnaby Jones, Rockford Files, The Untouchables and Perry Masom. The album was released on Penthouse Records in 1982 and received world-wide recognition. Penthouse Records was a subsidarary of Warner Bros. Read the full story http://www.freewebs.com/jodo777d46/ .
