Impressive TIA (Atari 2600) Music
Most games used shorter, single channel jingles, if they had any music at all. Click the image for a link to a page with more info. Wikipedia info here.
Note that Pitfall 2 used a custom sound chip (a much later homebrew game called Stay Frosty 2 also uses it).
Music on this chip is infamous for often sounding a bit (sometimes very) out of tune/off key. The reason why is that it wasn't really designed for music, and thus only about 13 of the 32 possible notes are (more or less) in tune.
