His early work included composing for the soap opera Dark Shadows and the two tie-in films, and composing the score for the 1972 TV movie The Night Stalker, together with The Night Strangler, which became the pilots for the TV series Kolchak: The Night Stalker. Cobert composed many game show themes.
