Perry Botkin Jr. (April 16, 1933 – January 18, 2021)[1] was an American composer, producer, arranger, and musician.[2] The tune "Nadia's Theme", composed by Botkin and Barry De Vorzon, peaked at No. 6 in Canada[3] and No. 8 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1976 and became the theme song for the long-running television soap opera The Young and the Restless. He was also a major contributor to Incredible Bongo Band, one of the most influential groups of all-time for its Bongo Rock album which is one of the most sampled from records, making it a major influence in the origins of Hip hop.[4]
