I need some happy music! (Eldermike, you were absolutely right about that).
Here’s one from way back when–A Swingin’ Safari, by Bert Kaempfert and his orchestra.
Was this used as theme music by “The Match Game”? Anyone remember?

I think your right, sounds like match game to me.
Oh yeah, I remember this one and “The Match Game.” It’s happy music.
If you let ‘Swingin’ Safari’ play out, the whole album will play. There are songs I never heard before. And yes, there are a few more, I would describe as “happy.”
Kaempfert had a gift for creating joyful music. It’s always uplifting. Modern, without being edgy. I love the way he incorporates an electric bass with an orchestra. It’s a completely different feel that could be gotten from double basses. The electric bass all but defines modern music.
