I don't think there was any guitar? Kamen is the one who brought Vic Flick back.
Yeah. No doubt Kamen brought back the traditional Bond guitar. But the guitar I meant in TLD's score doesn't exactly scream the traditional Bond theme. But you can hear guitar in that electronic, synthpop Bond theme Barry created for Dalton's Bond, just to give Dalton a harder edge.
Yeah. Ice Chase and Exercise at Gibraltar. There's more of bass guitar in them. Not the full traditional lead/electric guitar, although it's present in a subtle way.
No, that's just the synthesizer playing. As far as I can tell, the Bond theme in TLD consists of the traditional horn/percussion/strings sections accompanied by a synthesizer, and a drum machine on loop.
The only time Barry brought back the guitar after Connery's departure was for AVTAK, but of course that was for "He's Dangerous" rather than the Bond theme.
I know that they're not playing the same arrangement as the film uses, but they think it's got guitar in it! :D
Check it out here, pretty decent:

Yeah. You're right about those musical instruments. I thought I heard the guitar though. Maybe it's my love for rock music that's doing a number on me.
Yeah, He's Dangerous comes with that rock-like 80s guitar sound that rock bands use then.
Great variation of the track @mtm I really enjoyed it :D
Yeah, I think I heard guitar in the score. I don't know again Lol.
No I think you may well be right; the Q Music people obviously thought so!
Yeah. They did.
Recently, I came across with this one. I don't know when it was recorded, but the two working together suggests something for a certain film we're all waiting for...
Unless it's some sort of improvisation
I don't know if this have been posted before. I don't know if it's from the actual score though or fan-made. But it's so good. Especially towards the end. From 01:41 there are subtle hints of the Bond theme from Barry's TLD.
Its good fan made or real.
I was listening to one of Zimmer's concerts the other day, as much as anything I look forward to seeing/listening to Hans doing his Bond music live. Hans live events have such great energy.
Yeah. A bit of everything Bondian really, with the podcast bits.
Aaaah! Yes! Zimmer's live events are always a joy to watch. It simply takes you to PLANET ZIMMER.
Pretty good stuff for fan-made! I really like how it feels almost like the Bond theme done for a high fantasy setting, as if it’s scoring Bond in Middle-earth or something (now there would be an odd mashup). I think it’s the whimsy in the woodwinds and the mystery and promise of adventure in the horns and strings. The part from 1:10-1:35 actually sounds rather similar to Danny Elfman’s Alice in Wonderland. Things get a bit more traditionally Bondian when the percussion kicks in.
Yeah. The track's so good. Fans are turning into composers these days.
