Timeline
Although a number of references believe Robert Mellin to have been born in Surrey, England in 1902, his obituary notices finally clarified that he was born in Kiev, Ukraine, and brought to England as a baby, albeit for a short stay. His father, 39-year-old tailor Joseph Melnikoff together with wife Anna (28) and one-year-old Robert were en route to America, eventually settling in Chicago. Robert began his career in the music business as a songplugger for Remick Music in Chicago, eventually being promoted to manager.
After becoming an American citizen in 1938 (changing his name from Melnikoff to Mellin), he moved to New York and became an executive at Broadcast Music Inc.
(BMI) shortly after it was formed in 1940.
In 1947 he launched his own company Robert Mellin Inc. which operated in both America and Europe.
His first major hit was "My One and Only Love" in 1952, co-written with Guy Wood.
From 1952 he worked extensively in Europe, founding Robert Mellin Ltd in England.
In 1962 he supplied the lyrics to Acker Bilk's "Stranger on the Shore" which sold over a million copies. The prolific scale of Mellin's composing is reflected by his BMI account which runs to 608 titles, some written under the pseudonyms Robert Milton and Joe Hart.
Mellin himself scored a number of Italian westerns, but his own best-loved scoring work was for cult tv-series The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe (1964) which he co-composed with Gian Piero Reverberi.
The success of the Mellin companies can be judged by the fact that when the group was sold in 1968, the asking price was $1. 6 million. Robert Mellin's other successful career was as songwriter in which he proved equally adept at composing the melody or lyrics or both.
In 1968 Mellin's publishing group acquired exclusive rights to all film scores coming out of Czechoslovakia and Rumania, as well as many from Italy.
Mellin made London his permanent home from the mid-1970s and married his songwriting colleague Patricia Rossiter in 1980 at Westminster.
He also joined several performing right societies in Europe, becoming a member of SDRM (France) in March 1973, SABAM (Belgium) in April 1973 and SACEM (also France) from February 1979.
The theme music became a hit single and the score was released on CD in 1990 and expanded in 1997 with Mellin credited as a guest advisor. In order to present the full score Mellin succeeded in locating the original tapes that he had stored in Rome.
He also joined SGAE (Spain) before renewing his membership of BMI in 1993.
