About two weeks after my father passed away, having dealt with all the immediate consequences of that event, I was sitting at home, feeling depressed, when I suddenly recovered the urge to watch a movie. I was looking for something I hadn't watched …

Thank you. That's a lot of music. I'd love to hear the twangy guitar version of TB and alternate Street Chase.

I don't know what the future holds for the James Bond films, but no matter what, I count on and look forward to whatever non-007 projects people like Barbara Broccoli and Daniel Craig take on, separately or together (Othello?). I know the creative a…

I think the essential score cues not present in the original album are Gun Barrel / The Island Macau Following Andrea Scaramanga Strikes Chula The Death of Hai Fat Moments and possibly Retrieving the Solex Agitator

(check 12:21 or click here)

Indeed. If you haven't read it, brace yourself (but take a picture in case people doubt you ever did).
-
The melody in the intro of the Magnificent Seven track (first four bars) is rhythmically identical to the riff of the Bond theme.

When Bond enters Montelongo's office, he's got his hand on his secretary's waist.

Male of the Species on YouTube. I believe it was originally broadcast as three separate plays (MacNeil, Cornelius and Emlyn) and edited together for the US as Male of the Species. I rather enjoyed this. There is plenty of food for tho…

In Scaramanga Strikes, the unused part in the 0:42 to 0:57 section really makes the whole piece come together. One of my favorite moments in one of my favorite tracks. Beautiful lushness leading into an uncomfortable, illicit feeling leading into th…

Here's some of the things that caught my ear of the new Moonraker album: The sly Bond theme of Look After Mr. Bond. The violas playing so high at 0:30 in Venini Glass. The unused part of Venice Boat Chase, which sounds comedic but not too c…

-
In the film, I can't hear the mandolins at the beginning of the gondola chase, non any audio channel of the mix and not on the full mix. I was thinking I'd missed them in my reconstruction of the piece but now I'm thinking perhaps they were removed.
-
Such a restless score too. Always uneasy, never quite settles down, except for the romantic pieces. Other scores from Kamen I enjoy: Die Hard Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves Die Hard with a Vengeance (the radically-altered film edit though) Wha…
-
Absolutely. Kamen plays the s**t out of the Bond Theme. He goes completely nuts with it. Which always reminds me of him humming the Bond Theme in the Music of Bond documentary. That insane energy totally comes across.
-
Truck Chase is the track I want the most, but I look forward to exploring the entire score again in higher sound quality. I've always found it curious how the guitar solos lack high end. I like it though.
-
Nice! And they fixed the abrupt edits of the old album. Check out the sample of Licence Revoked at 0:45.

I was looking at the same thread. This is an area of Bond music ("Bond music" to be fair) I knew about but never really looked into, despite having posted in that very thread. I probably only listened to part of that album just once in the past. …

So good of you to come see me, Mr. Bond. Particularly on such short notice. --- James Bond. If only you'd kept away... we might've met again in a few years and become lovers once more.
