NP : MOONRAKER - John Barry
Just the tracks Bond Arrives In Rio and the utterly magnificent Flight Into Space, for such a lacklustre Bond score that one 6+minute track alone makes this an essential purchase.
These are the only two I have ever liked and had on my Bond mix tape since 1981...
(Just putting things in a historic perspective here )
NP: Naakt Over De Schutting ("Naked Over The Fence") - Ruud Bos
Jazz-influenced little score for a little-shown Dutch thriller involving illegal blue movie shoots in the middle of Amsterdam. Neither the book, nor the film, nor the score are very extraordinary, but the music is a nice look into Dutch film scoring of the early seventies: i.e. keep things light and easy, don't get too poppy (jazz is SO much more sophisticated), nor too dramatic (that's too much work and SO old fashioned).'no passion nor excitement here, despite all the notes and musicians' ~ Falkirkbairn -

I think the title song to Moonraker is very underrated.
Though this won't make you lament that loss Martijn, Kate Bush was apparently approached to sing it, listening to it's structure she would have been perfect and considering the time ( 1979 ) very current.On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -

VANGELIS - el greco
Relaxing, atmospheric and loooongggg. At places the melodies are boldly prominent and that makes the difference, such as the gorgeous main theme that gets a full orchestral / choral rendition and a piano version.Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders. -

Lord of the Rings - The Fellowship Of The Ring/The Two Towers/The Return Of The King Howard Shore (conducting the London Philharmonic Orchestra having also orchestrated the music himself)*
Got work to be doing, so I'm playing all three Lord Of The Rings scores back-to-back. You know, Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Ring, The Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers and of course The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King.**
I'd forgotten how awesomely amazingly awesome these scores really are.
*Note the distinct lack of acronyms.
**No really
Anyone ever made it through one sitting of one of the complete releases? Or even all 10 hours? I'd love to do it, but I'd need to be in a very particular mood to listen to 10 hours of non-stop music! -

NP : AT PLAY IN THE FIELDS OF THE LORD - Zbigniew Preisner
By the gods!!!! Why? WHY? have I taken so long to play this again!?? It must be 10 years or more? Preisner's music is gorgeous and tinged with some beautiful indigeonous elements.
The only downside is some source cues that, although they have their own charm break the lovely flow of Preisner's cues.
Cool! The main theme is beautiful and deeply moving! The native Indian music is not the easiest of listens. -

True but it wasn't without it's charm. The Preisner tracks are lovely.
