| Thanks to the dedication and fine
detective work of the EE Forum members, we've come up
with a fairly comprehensive list of songs that have been
used in the episodes of Early Edition. It's not a *complete*
list, and there are some for which we still have
questions (noted by ** next to the episode name), but
you'll find plenty of great EE tunes to keep yourself
humming for a good long time. These are arranged in order
of episode title... Any additions, corrections, or confirmations should be sent to me. |
