FRWL:
- A cue when Bond and Romanova are on the train. Luckily it's on Click -> Bond Back In Action 1, it's called The Zagreb Express, loving the whole atmospheric feeling.
- The short cue when Klebb says that the Cold War in Istanbul will not remain cold very much longer

GF:
- When Bond is on the plane and that asian observes him through those hidden spyholes

- When arrives at Drax's chateau
- Bond entering that Venini manufactory
- At the very end when Bond destroys the globes with the Laser

OP:
I can't remember the scene exactly, i think someone named it "Flight to India"

AVTAK: There are two cue:
- The cue is on Click -> Bond Back In Action 2. It's heard when Bond is on the fire ladder with Stacey in San Francisco.
- The other one is when Bond is at Zorin's estate. It's just about 30 seconds, magnificent nonetheless.



Yours?

Agreed with those. In terms of cues I always think of the above one from AVTAK, only Barry would have written something like that - perfect score as Moore's Bond draws to a close hanging off the skyship.

I miss everything from MR that's not on the CD.

[Brian Flagg]

From Thunderball:

The scene set on the beach where Bond tells Domino of her brother's death. There's a delicate string version of Mr. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang as Bond asks for her help in tracking the bomb. Of course, the scene ends with "I think he got the point."

I'd also like the brief cue where Fiona is driving Bond in the blue Mustang at rapid speed.

AVTAK: The music that plays during the horse riding scene with Zorin's thugs pounding on 007.

I would add to the list concerning TSWLM the soundtrack cues involving the supertanker -

1. The tanker bow doors open and the UK and USSR subs depart

2. Bond releases the three submarine crews and battle commences

3. Bond and the US captain and crew defuse the Polaris missile

4. The James Bond Theme played as Bond uses the CCTV camera to get up to the Liparus control room

5. The detonator from the Polaris missile explodes and the sub crews rush into the control room, quickly followed by Bond and Cmdr. Carter sending out new orders to the two hijacked submarines to fire at each other.

On a general point, I could never understand why, when the Bond soundtracks were re-released a few years ago, only some of them had bonus tracks added. They were most welcome - especially the ones for TB, YOLT and OHMSS. But why were no extra tracks added for DN, FRWL, TMWTGG, TSWLM, MR, OP and AVTAK? Were these tracks lost to posterity or were there other reasons? Legal reasons? Royalty problems? Or is the record company concerned holding back these tracks for yet another re-release a few years into the future?

I think if you can get your hands on the 007 magazine interview with Lukas Kendall (who was behind the remastering), he explains they ran out of money to do the later soundtracks. The MR master tapes are lost in France, so I doubt we will ever get a MR remastered with all the missing cues.

The Moonraker tapes weren't just "lost in France"; they were recorded at Studios Davout, which still exist. I suppose no-one really bothered to phone them.

For more info on the 2003 remasterd by Lucas Kendall, there's an excellent interview over here: http://www.shatterha...om/Kendall.html

[Mr. Blofeld]

I want that John Altman cue for the tank chase from GoldenEye; that should've been on the soundtrack CD!

[Leo R.]

Some time ago I made an estimate of the amount of missing music for each film:

Dr. No: 13 minutes
From Russia with love: 10 minutes
Goldfinger: 10 minutes
Thunderball: At least four cues
You only live twice: None
OHMSS: 1 cue
Diamonds are forever: 3 seconds + one source cue
Live and let die: none
The man with the golden gun: 25 minutes
The spy who loved me: 30 minutes
Moonraker: 10 minutes
For your eyes only: 5 minutes?
Octopussy: 20 minutes
Never say never again: 10 minutes
A view to a kill: 20 minutes
The living daylights: 30 seconds
Licence to kill: 14 cues
Goldeneye: several cues
Tomorrow never dies: none, if you count the music-only track from the dvd
The world is not enough: several cues
Die another day: none, if you count the demo
Casino Royale: none?
Quantum of solace: ?

Which means that there's over two hours of missing Bond music we are all dying to hear on cd or itunes some day...

[Dekard77]

I really love the chillout track done by David Arnold in TND when Bond, Paris and Carver all meet for the first time. Say what you want to say about the movie but that scene had a cool jealous vibe from the leading men over their woman. I have both soundtracks from the movie but neither with that track. I did have it ripped from dvd to MD but I cant transfer it to my computer now. I miss that.

[MajorB]

I'd also like the brief cue where Fiona is driving Bond in the blue Mustang at rapid speed.

I love that track, and was very sorry it wasn't part of the remastered release. But IIRC, Kendall said that one was lost. Really a shame. On the other hand, there's the compensation of having that unused track that I presume was composed for the motorcycle-flamethrower scene, which is one of the biggest and ballsiest Barry tracks of all time.

I was under the impression that Kendall had to leave some music out of the album because it wouldn't all fit on one disc and was no way they were going to do a 2 disc release.

The Living Daylights is missing a couple of nice cues. One at the end of the pre-title sequence, when Bond lands on the boat. Also, when they are flying to Afghanistan there is nice reprise of the "Where Has Every Body Gone" motif played on strings, but with a horn on top.

Another great cue is the one from Octopussy when Bond arrives at Checkpoint Charlie.

What a shame. I would have welcomed the inclusion of some of those missing cues from the later Bond films. The odd thing is how the original soundtrack albums often included tracks which were never heard during the film itself. For example, "The Golden Horn" from FRWL, "Tanaka's World" from YOLT and a track called "Anya" from TSWLM's official soundtrack album.

And I'm intrigued by one brief snatch of music from the bonus tracks section of the YOLT re-release. Where exactly in the movie was it planned to include "There'll Be A Hot Time In The Old Town Tonight"? It is right at the end of the track "James Bond - Ninja" on the re-issued YOLT album. I assume it was meant to tie in with the volcano exploding, but I'm glad it wasn't used -coming at the end of all that intense action it would have seemed wrong.

Finally, someone identified that darn piece! Everyone told me it was some Gilbert/Sullivan stuff, but nobody could name it. Now finally, one last piece of musical mystery falls into its place.

To answer your question, yes it was meant to be used in the scene where Blofeld explodes the volcano. It was Gilbert's original intention to have this musical jokes (practically all the musical jokes you hear in his pictures were his ideas). This is a typical device of musical humour when you play a few bars from a well-known song, have the audience remember the lyrics and then laugh. "Volcano - Hot Time - see, it's funny! Hahahaha." This joke was not made in the final cut, the music was replaced.

Some time ago I made an estimate of the amount of missing music for each film:

I'm afraid the estimates are way off in almost all the titles. I'll go back to my archives to de-construct the complete recordings and see what's actually released and what's actually missing. But none of the official soundtracks are complete - there's always a at least some seconds missing.

Glad to have identified that piece for you. And your explanation of why it was included in the soundtrack, even if it wasn't used in the end in the film, also explains why, ten years later, occasional "outside" pieces of music cropped up from time to time in TSWLM. "Lawrence Of Arabia" and the like. And in MR two years later - "The Magnificent Seven" and so on.

If it was the director's idea, well, it's not exactly subtle, is it? I'm glad good sense prevailed and "Hot Time" was cut.

[Guy Haines]

I want that John Altman cue for the tank chase from GoldenEye; that should've been on the soundtrack CD!

A version of it is on the CD "Bond Back In Action - Volume 2", released by Silva Screen Records, performed by The City Of Prague Orchestra and conducted and arranged by Nic Raine, one of John Barry's musical collaborators. The CD has various incidental pieces from the 70s, 80s and 90s Bond films, including some which never made the original soundtrack albums.

"Bond Back In Action - Volume 1" does the same for the 1960s films.

Hi The Cat,

always interesting to read your posts. Looking forward to your estimates of missing music.

[sharpshooter]

The hauntingly beautiful Moonraker score really needs to be expanded.

Missing tracks from Bill Contis score "For your eyes only" (1981)

- finding the corpse of Ferrara
- Background music at the Casino game
- Background music at the Casino meal with Kristatos



Does anyone knows the quotation of the music track which is used in "The spy who loved me" (1977) when the Leyland Sherva van leads to the blowing of the cylinder head gasket in the egyptian desert?

I don't know, but you the scene is on youtube. Search for "James Bond Train scene The Spy Who loved Me part 3 Roger Moore" It's at around 0:22

Someone might recognize it;)

Some time ago I made an estimate of the amount of missing music for each film:


Casino Royale: none?

Actually there's a missing cue in Casino Royale , the Death of Dryden, which is not on "Licence: 2 Kills".

[mattjoes]

The strings that lead into the title song (right before the gunbarrel) are not on the soundtrack. Is that what you mean?

[Nicolas Suszczyk]

Yup, right when Dryden says: "Make you feel it, did he?" and up until the main titles.
I'd call the cue "Yes, Considerably/Gunbarrel" or "Death of Dryden and Fisher/Gunbarrel"

These estimates are based the unreleased music as heard in the films. If you have any information that there's a lot more... You can PM me if you like.

Exact;y. For instance in OHMSS, there's a bar of tremoloing strings playing the bass line before the bass and mooog synthesiser from "Escape From Piz Gloria" starts, the version of of WHATTITW heard when Bond proposes to Tracey, along with a brass lead-in to "Over And Out".

Isn't there a brief snatch when Bond has lost to Le Chiffre at poker, grabs a table knife and sets off to confront the villain only for Leiter to stop Bond on the stairs and offer to buy him back in the game? I believe its called "A Brother From Langley".

Yes, it's on iTunes.
