The Tonight Show in 1962 had a closing theme song that was quite repetitive. Some announcements were made and then any time left over was given to a band member to play a solo. Here are two clips from that year. The first has Doc Severinsen and the second has Clark Terry. I captured these on an old Webcor tape recorder. I held the included microphone up to the TV speaker. The sound quality was not very good, but the playing is enough fun to make up for it!
