LaLaLand ... thank you so much for this release! Fantastic sound ... every cue I seemed to have been missing from the Canadian CD I picked up of Quest music some years ago ... One thing I was looking for in the well-designed and otherwise-informative booklet was how this CD came to pass ... I kind of assumed, based on use of the music in the documentary and several groupings on YouTube, that the recordings existed somewhere but always wondered why they were not released, given the program's popularity. What, may I ask, was the process involved in producing this CD, to the extent that can be told. Thanks!

Has anyone been able to locate the cue that begins at 4:29 in this vid? Or am I just deaf?

Yes. I think I'm deaf as well. I went speedily through my cd set and I could not find it either. It may be buried within a longer piece but I have failed to find it.

For anyone who grew up with this show, this release is a dream come true. For those of you who are too young to have experienced the unique combination of animation and action that JONNY QUEST offered back then, please give this music a try. Yes, it has some cartoon-y music, but most of it is dramatic or jazz-based cues that are just DYNAMITE! This was truly breakout scoring for an animated series.

This just arrived and I was doing some needle drops in the car while running errands. Very cool stuff, I look forward to delving into this more deeply.

Nope. It's definitely not there.

Finally! I've been wanting an official release of JQ for decades...this one is much better than the previous unofficial releases. Thank you, LALA Land.

In addition to that cue, I've identified some others that are missing. All but one can be found on the unofficial promo releases that were floating around. The names below are ones I've given them. I don't know how to attach them as files, unfortunately but I have added the locations for them in the YouTube clip that appears about five or six pages into this thread.

Ski Foil (the one you asked about, used in the first episode when Race is taking Jonny back from the beach on the hydrofoil) (:55) - located at 4:29 in the YouTube clip

Bandit Goofing Off - Flute, Horn (jazzy, playful) (:57) - located at 57:05 in the YouTube clip

Brief Jungle Drums (slow, plodding snare with the snare off) (:33) - located at 1:43:54 in the YouTube clip

Christmas Snow - Light Bells, Hi-Hat, High Woodwinds (this uses the melody of one of the Christmas songs that Fred Flintstone sang in that show's Christmas episode) (1:10) - located at 44:49 in the YouTube clip

Danger Beat - Dueling Jungle Tom Toms (:50) - located at 35:36 in the YouTube clip

Eerie Spying (synthesized quaver with clarinet) (1:10) - located at 4:29 in the YouTube clip

Light Movement (strings - starts wistful, becomes melancholy) (:40) - located at 1:23:09 in the YouTube clip

Jazzy Wrapup Sting (another version of the episode wrapup cue) (:25 although it's really only :20) - located at 1:47:00 in the YouTube clip

Karate Chop - Davey Jones Locker, Sting (this is first used in the first episode as Race and Jonny are skulking about the ship - if memory serves at the end of it, the diving helmet falls onto Jonny and he makes a joke) (:37) - located at 33:14 in the YouTube clip

Native Drums (light jungle drums) (:54) - located at 34:04 in the YouTube clip

Playful - Wood Blocks, Vibes, Organ, Trumpet (ends with a light, fun sting) (1:09) - located at 1:00:10 in the YouTube clip

Restless Natives - Tom Toms with Ratchet (rapid) (:32) - located at 38:30 in the YouTube clip

Travelling Briskly - Horns, Flutes, Xylophone (often heard when they're rushing in a vehicle but not in a chase) (:35) - located at 1:44:24 in the YouTube clip

Under the Bigtop (sounds like circus music) (:35) - located at 40:58 in the YouTube clip

Warpath (more tom toms - another agitate jungle drums cue) (:19) - located at 38:10 in the YouTube clip

The final cue is not on any previous release. It starts similarly in feel to "Bad Guys" from House of the Seven Gargoyles but instead of introducing organ, it stays with heavy brass and winds, has a few seconds of reprieve with lighter winds, then hits hard again at the end - used very often on the show)

You don't happen to know where these cues appear on the linked YouTube video? I digitized the file that began this thread ... from the video ... and simply added it to my Jonny Quest CD2 ... would add the others for a more-complete selection ... if I knew where they appeared on the YT link. If not, no big deal, but I thought you might know. Thanks!

In my edited post above, I added the approximate time codes to locate each in the YouTube clip you referenced. The covers everything except one music cue that nobody has released in any form. If I had the time, I'd search for it among the episodes but that's a lot of viewing for a cue that could be anywhere except definitely not in the first episode.

Indeed Mr. LeaGolfer. I've been grooving to this since last week, humming and tapping out the rhythms all around the office to the general bemusement and (and mild annoyance) of the collegues. smile

Advise & Consent its a great release probably one of my best this year this will go nicely with Battle of the Planets. LA LA certainly do some excellent releases. They will get use to it at work or they probably like it, Advise its one of them scores that just rub off on you that you can not dislike in anyway great score. smile

If you are a fan of 1960s spy music and you haven't hopped on this by now, do so before it disappears.
