The association with Campbell, who was at the peak of his popularity in the late 1960s as a crossover singer hitting it high on both the country and pop charts, led to McCarthy's first television work, acting as the musical director on the long running s score to &Wise Blood,& before McCarthy embarked on his own composing career in the early 1980s. One of the first people McCarthy met during his stint as a road musician was Marty Paich, a television music director who first recognized McCarthy's musical abilities. Nelson Riddle became another source of inspiration; it was Nelson who suggested McCarthy spend more time composing and arranging rather than playing the piano on the TV show. McCarthy spent four years on s choral director, and also Earl Brown who also worked on the show. An opportunity to compose a film score in England opened doors for McCarthy when he returned to Hollywood, giving him experience in orchestral writing while also giving him a feature film credit that created new opportunities in Hollywood.
