Jerome Gambit: Theme Song

 



Sometimes I think that every heroic chess opening should have a theme song - or at least some background music. 

I have already looked at "What Does the Jerome Gambit Sound Like?" and presented chessfriend Yury V. Bukayev's contribution - see " 'Jerome Gambit Song' Update" - but it's fun to add some contributions to be found on YouTube

Among them you will hear my favorite Jerome Gambit refrain - The first to panic loses the game...

About Me

My photo
Rick Kennedy
I've been researching Alonzo Wheeler Jerome's gambit since 2001. I am always interested in receiving games and analysis: as old as 1874, when the opening first was published, or as recent as today -- casual or serious, blitz or classical time settings, human or computer (or both). Readers can reach me at richardfkennedy@hotmail.com. perrypawnpusher is the name I play under at different chess sites. My book reviews and fiction were at Chessville.com - while it lived. I have written for Chess Life, School Mates, and Chess Life for Kids. Dedicated researchers may connect my name to that of Riley Sheffield - we co-wrote The Marshall Gambit in the French and Sicilian Defenses , published by Dale Brandreth's Caissa in 1988.
