Ernest Gold wrote the scores for Exodus and It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World.

Andrew Gold also wrote the theme song for The Golden Girls.

Andrew Gold taken from us too early at age 59.

It’s a shame he passed away at a fairly young age. He worked with JD Souther and Linda Ronstadt, too.

He has a good voice; I'm surprised he wasn't bigger as a solo artist.
