I agree. This is one that could use a good expansion, as so much of the the album was rerecorded. In particular, "Bond '77" lacks the punch and dramatic arc of the version written for the ski chase. I'd also love to have that "Chorus Line" arrangement of "Nobody Does it Better" heard over the final scene. The film version of the opening title song (with its shortened conclusion) would also be great to have.    Posted:   Mar 17, 2024 - 12:55 PM     By:   roy phillippe   (Member) As much as I love the Barry one (AVTAK, MTTGG, MR needs expansions) I will give a shout out for THE SPY WHO LOVED ME.

Never understood the inclusion of "California Girls" while Bond is skiing.    Posted:   Mar 17, 2024 - 1:09 PM     By:   bladerunner76   (Member) You're thinking of a view to a kill    Posted:   Mar 18, 2024 - 6:38 AM     By:   CindyLover   (Member) Never cared for this score. Never understood the inclusion of "California Girls" while Bond is skiing. Using "Pop Goes Bach" isn't a reference that non-British viewers would get.    Posted:   Mar 18, 2024 - 9:02 AM     By:   Luc Van der Eeken   (Member) This sentence worries me a bit: "We hope to have more Octopussy's in by late April early May...AND THOSE TOO, WILL SELL OUT. So, if you like your Bond's buy them when you can, especially through us because you will get them the fastest. Other retail stores are NOT guaranteed units." I've ordered mine through MBR...    Posted:   Mar 18, 2024 - 9:16 AM     By:   MikeyKW   (Member) I agree. This is one that could use a good expansion, as so much of the the album was rerecorded.

While I almost always prefer a C&C presentation, I think Marvin Hamlisch was probably right in wanting to present the score as suites built around the main musical ideas. The score just isn't as cohesive as many of the others, and doesn't really build on any musical ideas.    Posted:   Mar 18, 2024 - 10:58 AM     By:   panavision   (Member) I agree.

Marvin chose the best way of presenting the music - as re-recorded suites.    Posted:   Mar 26, 2024 - 9:39 AM     By:   panavision   (Member) Listening to TLD in film order. I like how Barry brings in the A-Ha main theme when Bond goes to Tangiers and Afghanistan.     General Discussion: If La La Land THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS is happening    << < 3 4 5  >   Go to page:  1 2 3 4 5   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2 3 4 5
