Hey Frank, that's a 'very' good link describing EVERYTHING about that show, I'm
going to copy and paste a little part of it here and tell me if you or someone
else in here knows what the 'tune' is they're talking about or if they have a
sound byte of it because I don't think Ed plays it.

I've also forwarded that link and this same question to him, so hopefully I'll
get to hear this 'perfect song.'

The only new addition to the format would be a theme song: after much
discussion, WMAQ musical director Joseph Gallicchio selected a plaintive,
yearning melody from Joseph C. Briell's score for the film "Birth Of A Nation."
Gallicchio's small string orchestra would play this song at the open and close
of every episode -- and would make "The Perfect Song" one of America's most
familiar melodies.
