While FTANG! is an unapologetic and unabashed Doctor Who fan, this needs to be addressed for those Trek nerds out there. I've heard there are a few of you still walking around.
Alexander "Sandy" Courage, an Emmy-winning and Academy Award-nominated arranger, orchestrator and the composer who created the otherworldly theme for the classic "Star Trek" TV show, has died at an assisted-living facility. He was 88 and had been in poor health for a number of years.
Among many other projects he also provided the orchestration for such movies as "The Poseidon Adventure," "Jurassic Park," "Basic Instinct" and "The Mummy".
Beginning in the 1960s he composed music for TV shows, including "The Waltons," "Lost in Space" and "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea," although the only themes he created were for "Star Trek" and "Judd For the Defense."
