Wiki says that it wasn't either of those 2 shows."Fanfare For The Common Man"... stirred an unrelated memory.
There was a show in the 60s, "The 20th Century" narrated by Walter Cronkite (an actual history show, not like the History Channel). Morphed into "The 21st Century" in the latter part of the decade; described science/tech that was expected to impact the human condition. Even the advertisements were about science/tech. Was this music (not by ELP of course) the intro for that show? OldGuys™ help me out here.
"The fanfare has found much use as a theme for television programs. In the United States, Emerson, Lake and Palmer's arrangement of Fanfare for the Common Man was the opening theme song for the CBS Sports Spectacular. In Mexico, it was the main title theme of TV Azteca TV sport program DeporTV."It was definitely theme for the opening of a TV special. I was thinking 70’s Olympics, now you’ve got me wondering.
