Theme to the Gaurdian is the debut album by American jazz guitarist Bill Connors, recorded in November 1974 and released on ECM the following year.

The AllMusic review by John W. Patterson awarded the album four stars stating:This release of Connors is truly excellent acoustic guitar work with some of the most unique compositions and playing style you will find anywhere.

Connors dubs one track as a sort of complex and exotic chordal progression base structure of strummed rhythms and/or a tapestry of finger roll picking.

Over this landscape of dreamy, moody, surreal or frenetic design Connors solos and augments the original track of his playing.

The effect is a ghostly dance of melancholy angst and passionate wailings.
