"Touchdown" is a 1978 jazz album by Bob James. It was a commercial breakout album for him that contained the song "Angela", the popular theme song to the 1970s television sitcom, "Taxi". The song was named after the guest character in the third episode of the first season ("Blind Date"), but after hearing the song, the producers made this the show's main theme, replacing their previous choice, which became this album's title track. [imdb title|0077089|Taxi (Trivia section)] The title is a reference to this being his sixth solo album, a touchdown being worth six points in American football. It was preceded by "Heads" (with a five cent coin on the cover) and followed by "Lucky Seven".
