<P> The theme music, "East Bound and Down", was sung and co-written by Reed (credited under his birth name, Jerry Hubbard) and Dick Feller . It became Reed's signature song and is found on multiple albums, including Country Legends and his live album Jerry Reed: Live Still . In 1991 it was arranged for orchestra by Crafton Beck and recorded by Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra for their album Down on the Farm . Several other groups, such as US rock band Tonic, have also covered it . Reed also penned and performed the song for the opening credits, entitled "The Legend", which tells of some of The Bandit's escapades prior to the events of the film, and the ballad "The Bandit", which features in several versions in the movie and on the soundtrack . Reed's hit not withstanding, Bill Justis is the first name on the credits for the soundtrack as he composed and arranged original music throughout the film . Musicians such as Beegie Adair and George Tidwell played on the soundtrack as part of long careers in music . Legendary five - string banjo player Bobby Thompson is also heard prominently towards the end of "East Bound and Down ." The soundtrack album was released in 1977 on vinyl, cassette and 8 - track through MCA Records . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> No . </Th> <Th> Title </Th> <Th> Writer (s) </Th> <Th> Length </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1 . </Td> <Td> "The Legend" </Td> <Td> Jerry R.
