I find that I remember it more than any other track from the Bond films.<br /><br />And the Black Hole music is a favorite of mine too. Man, this guy really did a good job.<br /><br />In many ways Star Crash wasn't worthy of such wonderful music -- but I'm glad it's running in the background (even with all of the bad acting).Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04157952529413529997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-34671352269446509582011-02-01T19:49:05.288-05:002011-02-01T19:49:05.288-05:00His core for The Black Hole is one of my favorites...His core for The Black Hole is one of my favorites. Upon hearing it you felt yourself in deep space and in the presence of something ominous.

His theme to 'The Knack' just sweeps you away into another universe, it is so wonderful. Love all his Bond music, particularly 'O.H.M.S.S.'. Wish he'd scored 'Never Say Never Again' though. R.I.P.
