Does anyone know who owns the rights to all the Bond albums? Is there a single company like EMI or anyone?

actually.... MGM owns the rights to all the music (and they are very stingy about them to). Ryko disc had bought the rights to some of the later bond scores, ie Living Daylights, For Your Eyes Only, and Octopussy. However, these scores have gone out of print, so if you havent picked them up.. i suggest you do. Also, there are rumored ( i emphasize RUMORED) expanded releases coming out from EMI to celebrate Bond's anniversary. Keep your fingers crossed. I know I know, a little overkill on the question, but i couldn't resist.
