the original theme from the original film (Dr. No)

yllona
drsaunde: ah, that's gonna be an ugly one. my suggestion? listen to the originals (if available) and see which moby worked from
2007-05-11 13142, 2007
yllona
drsaunde: i'd always thought it was John barry tho
2007-05-11 13100, 2007
drsaunde
well...the original first one was Monty Norman
2007-05-11 13116, 2007
drsaunde
and he get composer credits...but rumors are that Barry re-worked it
2007-05-11 13123, 2007
yllona
but i just saw the original version of "Casino Royale" (with David Niven) -- for the first time as an adult earlier this week
2007-05-11 13103, 2007
drsaunde
that one's Burt Bacharach :-)
2007-05-11 13107, 2007
yllona
drsaunde: safest bet? monty norman as composer, john barry as arranger
2007-05-11 13125, 2007
drsaunde
well..the barry arrangement is not official
2007-05-11 13149, 2007
yllona
drsaunde: ? did yoiu check ascap & bmi?
2007-05-11 13150, 2007
drsaunde
and I'm going to link the 2...I just haven't decided on cover vs. remix (as there's no lyrics)
2007-05-11 13101, 2007
drsaunde
Norman all the way
2007-05-11 13104, 2007
BrianFreud
seems more a cover than a remix
2007-05-11 13119, 2007
BrianFreud
though moby might also have composed by credit, if he re-worked it
2007-05-11 13143, 2007
drsaunde
no..the composer credit on the moby album is solely norman
2007-05-11 13108, 2007
BrianFreud
couldn't you do both? cover of and remix of?
2007-05-11 13138, 2007
drsaunde
i guess...but that seems like overkill to me
2007-05-11 13154, 2007
BrianFreud
it's a cover of the song, performed by moby, but a remix version of the original composition
2007-05-11 13106, 2007
drsaunde
my point i guess is....can we still call it a cover if there's no lyrics?
2007-05-11 13137, 2007
BrianFreud
I tend think to so... you can cover a tune even if you leave out the libretto
2007-05-11 13144, 2007
BrianFreud
or lyrics, in this case
2007-05-11 13105, 2007
drsaunde
its not a case of "leaving out" though...both tracks are instrumental
2007-05-11 13119, 2007
yllona
drsaunde: i agree "casino royale" is Bacharach all the way. includes the classic "the look of love"
2007-05-11 13149, 2007
BrianFreud
you ever see the original TV version of casino royale?
2007-05-11 13124, 2007
BrianFreud
can't find my copy of it - there was a hour long tv version before woody allen's version. A whole lot closer to the original book...
2007-05-11 13131, 2007
drsaunde
yeah..that's the one we were discussing (sort of) with David Niven and Peter Sellers
2007-05-11 13143, 2007
BrianFreud
no, before that
2007-05-11 13157, 2007
yllona
drsaunde: at this point in his career moby has a quite adept legal team so the research -- so you can assume that research is complete on moby's end :)
2007-05-11 13132, 2007
drsaunde
yeah...like i said...norman is credited in all legal and official channels
2007-05-11 13108, 2007
drsaunde
but that first score is so similar to all the barry ones that rumor is that he "fixed" it
drsaunde: then that's what you work from, any other controversy can be noted in annotations
2007-05-11 13149, 2007
BrianFreud
I'd agree - let them fight out the controversy, while we just go from the official sources
2007-05-11 13153, 2007
drsaunde
yeah..that's not an issue...i'm certain i have the proper original recording...i'm still stuck on the cover vs. remix

BrianFreud: "fixing" a score is not unusual. one of the more recent ones i can remember involves wynton marsalis.. i.e. the original score he wrote completely outshined the movie -- so a second, lesser known composer was brought in to "fix"
2007-05-11 13130, 2007
BrianFreud
no disagreement

2007-05-11 13154, 2007
BrianFreud hopes catgroove isn't a Yes fan, as he had to add some Yes bootlegs

:P
2007-05-11 13106, 2007
catgroove just stays away from bootlegs altogether
2007-05-11 13118, 2007
catgroove
don't dare add any bootlegs to uriah heep
2007-05-11 13124, 2007
catgroove
seriously
2007-05-11 13136, 2007
catgroove
or queen, really
2007-05-11 13108, 2007
catgroove does ponder what 60's nirvana was like tho.. psychedelic hippie music anyone?
2007-05-11 13121, 2007
BrianFreud
I actually bought a few of their albums, just from curiousity... It's VERY trippy
2007-05-11 13150, 2007
BrianFreud
but I thought of you as I added the Yes boots, cause I know how much you hate bootlegs :)
2007-05-11 13141, 2007
BrianFreud
Uriah Heap, I think you
2007-05-11 13157, 2007
BrianFreud
you're safe. Queen... can't promise you :P
2007-05-11 13118, 2007

Never heard of Uriah Heap, actually :P

lol, seems like I ought to give this band a try. Any suggestions for a good Uriah Heap album?
2007-05-11 13125, 2007
srotta
I've seen them once, I think.
2007-05-11 13120, 2007
BrianFreud
never heard of them
2007-05-11 13129, 2007
BrianFreud blushes

It was sort of fun, to think that those guys were big in 70's, and there they were, in a smallish Finnish festival, on a side stage, and everything showed they were really having fun.
2007-05-11 13125, 2007
srotta
Plus, the field in front of the stage was packed with people.
2007-05-11 13135, 2007
BrianFreud
see, all those old 70's bands, unless they were as big as Led Zep, I never heard of them
2007-05-11 13158, 2007
BrianFreud
they pre-dated me by just a decade
2007-05-11 13125, 2007
srotta
And Uriah Heep was/is mainly European (British) phenomenon.
2007-05-11 13127, 2007
BrianFreud
Any suggestions for an album to try? Quite honestly, I've never heard of them.
2007-05-11 13131, 2007
srotta
I haven't really listened to them that much either, so catgroove would probably be better suited to recommend something.
2007-05-11 13151, 2007
BrianFreud
catgroove? :)
2007-05-11 13123, 2007
BrianFreud hides, since he knows how much catgroove hates BrianFreud's adding bootlegs...
2007-05-11 13157, 2007
catgroove
as long as you stay away from uriah heep...
2007-05-11 13105, 2007

lesse.. uriah heep album
2007-05-11 13108, 2007
catgroove
wait a sec
2007-05-11 13107, 2007

lol, I'll promise to not add a bootleg for uriah heap without letting you know first, if you can provide an album for me to try first :)
