Question

For a long time I'm searching for the music that has been used in some old Flemish (Belgian) youth series from the 60's and early 70's. The sound designer in those days had a preference for music from Jerry Goldsmith, John Barry and Ennio Morricone [there's a lot of music of 'Our Man Flint', 'Sebastian', 'Goldfinger', 'The Knack And How To Get It', 'The Good, The Bad & The Ugly', 'Navajo Joe', 'A Fistful of Dollars', 'For A Few Dollars More', 'Once Upon A Time in The West', 'La Resa Dei Conti' ('The Big Gundown') in the series].

Some tracks are not identified up to now. You can find sound samples of the music I'm searching for on the following location: http://users.skynet.be/fa001017/audio.html

Anyone who knows or recognizes these scores? I want to buy the original soundtracks but I have no idea what album/movie/series they are from.

Many thanks in advance for your help/suggestions!

Regards,
Benjamin

While it may sound like other scores, it is likely original score:

Thanks for your reaction!

I have the certainty that there was no music composed for the Flemish youth feuilletons from the 60's and early 70's. Pieter Verlinden put some relevant scores out of his collection lp's (most of the time recent soundtracks from Goldsmith, Barry and Morricone) and brought them into the series (what we in Dutch call 'sonorisatie', in French 'sonorisation', wiring for sound?).
Verlinden just composed music himself in later times (for 'Dood van een Non', 'Centraal Station', 'De Collega's', 'Het Pleintje', 'Maria Speermalie', 'Klinkaart', 'Met voorbedachten rade', 'Een mens van goede wil' ...).

Hi Benjamin,

Zeppos III Sample 4 is "Zoo Chase" from Henry Mancini's ARABESQUE
Zeppos III Sample 7 is "A Monkey Farm" from Henry Mancini's GUNN

Axel Nort Sample 1 is "Girl Trouble" from John Barry's FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE.

Hope this helps at least a little...
Good luck !

Thanks a lot for your responses Dorian and Shinji!!! It's a great help to me!

The music that is used in 'De Kat' ('The Cat') seems to be the most difficult to find. It's another music style and I don't have any idea where to search (there are no cue sheets in the Belgian television archive about this series, so there isn't any information about the chosen music).

Edit: Someone has told me that it souds very much like cuts from the Chappell Music Library that was popular around 1966-1972. Indeed! It is library music. At the moment, two numbers are identified: Roland Kovac - Training pulse & Roland Kovac - Hunter's beat. Can someone help me to find more tracks? Thanks!

Regards.
