Mick Jagger has written his first TV theme, for the Apple TV Plus spy series “Slow Horses,” debuting April 1. And it might never have happened if he hadn’t already read and liked the Mick Herron book on which it’s based. Variety reports.

“It’s a quite popular series of books, so I knew what it was about,” the iconic Rolling Stones singer tells Variety. “I knew the vibe really well, so as soon as [composer Daniel Pemberton] sent the track to me, I just dashed off a few pages of notes of what I thought it was about. It came very, very quickly, which is always a good sign.”

Daniel Pemberton, the series’ Oscar-nominated composer (“The Trial of the Chicago 7”), had been working for months on the series, creating what he calls “a very unique sound world, all based on low-fi recording techniques and slightly wonky sounds.”

Recently A&E Network has  also revealed a new four-part documentary series about James Brown, Say It Loud, executive produced by Mick Jagger, The Roots’ Questlove and Black Thought, David Blackman, Victoria Pearman, and Peter Afterman.

The Rolling Stones frontman described Brown as “a brilliant performer who inspired me from the beginning.”

Questlove, leader of the Roots, is riding high from “Summer of Soul (Or, When the Revolution Could Not be Televised),” his Oscar-nominated documentary on a series of Harlem concerts described as the Black Woodstock.

“The life of James Brown is significant not only to understand his immense musical impact, which inspires us and other artists to this day, but also for the deep and lasting impression he has had on American culture,” he said.

A&E announced Friday that they have green-lit James Brown: Say It Loud, a massive four-hour docuseries that celebrates the Godfather of Funk’s legacy. The series will feature both never-before-seen archival footage and interviews with friends, family, collaborators and more, and track Brown’s life from the Jim Crow-era South to becoming “the hardest working man in show business.”

“I am thrilled to be producing the four part documentary series with A&E delving into the fascinating life of James Brown,” Mick Jagger said in a statement. “He was a brilliant performer who inspired me from the beginning and was deeply committed to the Civil Rights movement. I have always admired James and learned so much from him. I look forward to bringing the series to life.”

“The life of James Brown is significant not only to understand his immense musical impact, which inspires us and other artists to this day, but also for the deep and lasting impression he has had on American culture. Brown’s life is a crucial and timely story of struggle, redemption, and self-identity and we are honored to have the chance to share it.”
