Odd comment for sure. I thought that CTS Bayswater closed in 1972 and CTS moved to Wembley. If Richards' comment is correct where were Barry's UK scores post 72 recorded?.
However we're talking a long time ago. Memory sometimes plays tricks.

I always assumed Alice's Adventures was recorded there, and what about The Tamarind Seed, The Dove & The Man with the Golden Gun?

Though I was very familiar with what I heard on the film (much of it drowned by sound effects), this is of course the first time we've been able to hear this clearly and away from from the film.
Hearing it that way is a revelation. It surprised me how close it is to Enigma, composed so many years later.
Of the stereo tracks, I think someone else mentioned this, but I was disappointed to hear that "Direct Hit" seems damaged. But given the age of the recording, I think we've come off well overall.
It's great to hear some 1979 Barry music for the first time ever - i.e. the unused cues.
I'm curious about the comment there's no paperwork for the re-scored cues.
Cheers

OK, late to the party. Is this any good? The movie seemed tailor made for me from cast to subject to setting. And I hated it.
But I don't remember the score.

As with many Barry scores the main theme is gorgeous but listening to the entire score can be tiring. Because once you heard the main theme you basically heard everything. And after hearing it over and over again you kind of get bored by it. At least that was my experience with this score.
Sorry, but I must disagree.
There's very little repetition in this score at all. The main title theme actually doesn't show up that much in the body of the score and when it does it's generally just a short quotation in a different orchestration.

Exactly. This would have made for an ideal 30-minute Varese CD back in the day, but at an hour+, it's numbingly repetitive.
I don't know what you're listening to.
There's hadly any repetition in the score at all.
Bizarre.
