I always liked Fielding's BIG SLEEP score, especially the jazzy main and end titles. When I realised years later that he'd used the same theme at least twice before (didn't he also use it on a Matt Helm score or something?), I felt a bit cheated, not to say disappointed 
It was great when Intrada put the score out - a bit of a shame they only had mono tapes, but they were very good nonetheless.

Yes, on the Matt Helm pilot movie (the series was scored by Morton Stevens) - and probably on other things that we haven't discovered yet! It used to slightly disappoint me too, this recycling, but now I've grown to accept it, even "love" it, as a kind of signature. Just like Leonard Rosenman ending his scores with a tone pyramid - it's like he's autographing his work.

Yes, Fielding scores are chock-full of stuff you've heard before, but he does it with a lot of style
