The lack of a "Rare" commentary track for this film, led me to construct {as close as possible} a music only track for the Thunderball preservation. It as close as I can get to the music as it is presented in the film. This music edit was the most complicated re-edit of a soundtrack I've ever attempted. Seems that the Producers went and extracted bits of the recorded Barry Score to make some cues out of parts of many different cues that Barry recorded. This led me to have to try and duplicate the edits in the score by using the Soundtrack CDs. What a job this has been. I have been having a problem identifying some of the music used in the underwater segment at the films end. I have an isolated score that is at this point about 97% matched up to the film.
BTW, I saw the new film this past week.. WOW! It's true! BOND IS BACK...
