Mike Moran -- No Mean City instrumental (Taggart theme)
There's two versions - the incidental instrumental version, and the title music with lyric sung by Maggie Bell, formerly of rock band Stone the Crows. The theme is called No Mean City and was composed by Mike Moran.'Mrud-ah' is how the Glaswegian Taggart pronounces "murder". My Scots roots are also in the fair city o' Glasgow, and he reminds me of my grandmother.
UPDATE
Leave a note if you find this; there's so many people coming here for the Taggart theme music tracks it's becoming legendary, and it'd be cool to know who y'all are.

thx mate, love this music, cheers for uploading it.
Thank you so much! This song has a real tingle factor and I can't believe it isn't available, even on a compilation of TV themes!
Thank You,
Was searching for Ages to Find the theme with Maggie bell
Many thanks,
Mike from London
Would love to get my hands on the full length instrumental version that gets played at the end of the most recent series. Any ideas? It's for a backing track to sing aong to. Might need to take up smoking 60 a day to get anywhere close to Maggie's gravelly vocals though. xS
