OO7 Versus The Persuaders!!!

Or...
Lazenby versus Moore & Curtis!

























So then...
Who got the better theme music composed for them?
Lazenby's Bond
(with Emma Peel/Diana Rigg
as the muse) -
or Moore's & Curtis' Sinclair & Wilde -
the Persuaders without much of a cause at all...?
Hmm?

John Barry truly did a STUPENDOUS job on BOTH of these, didn't he?

One could say - a BANG UP job!
(Danny Wylde and James Bond himself would appreciate the expression - they do, whenever it is used! But that is beside the point right now...)


Both are such great themes...


But to choose only ONE...

Damn those copyright hassles and all!

I am pretty sure Mr. Barry or "his people" pulled some strings to have ALL TRACES of his great work for the George Lazenby/Diana Rigg Bond film's soundtrack REMOVED from the net!

Too bad; 'cause all I wanted to do was spotlight it, showcase it as his VERY BEST WORK!

And certainly everyone else who ever uploaded the track to the world wide web felt likewise - and the same goes to those who shamelessly SAMPLED from it...!
And speaking of which...


This is all I can find anymore of these traces I speak of; a mere excerpt of the Propellerheads' sampling of John Barry's composition, that you can listen to on the new profile of close friend Luc Poirier (!) - here.

The "perfspot" indeed to begin appreciating this great music anew - and voting accordingly here?!?

ALL RIGHTY THEN...

Order has been restored to this post - oh, some TEN YEARS LATER - via YouTube!

For if the tunes won't play through any other ''services'' (Deezer most famously) we can always fall back on YT to find out that somebody has uploaded just that, recently...!

THANK YOU YT!

And Deezer - begone!!!
