Complete List Of James Bond Soundtrack Cues

Hey,

So I started a thread a few months ago trying to chronicle every musical cue used in an official James Bond film. One of the mods thinks another mod may have accidentally deleted it, so I'm re-posting :-?

I've seen posts on various forums about individual scores, but as far as I'm aware, there isn't a thread with every soundtrack in the order the music appears in the movie.

Please feel free to post below if you've made a complete listing of a soundtrack or if you spot any mistakes or have any other comments or suggestions.

I'd love to be in a position to have a definitive soundtrack for the films, including source music, omitted and alternate cues, different versions of the theme song, rejected theme songs etc. etc.

An asterisk denotes a track or cue not commercially available. I haven't included the Nic Raine re-orchestrations, focussing just on original source material from the film. I have made up many of the titles of the missing cues; they are not 'official' designations. Here we are so far...
DR. NO (1962)

01 Gun Barrel* - Main Titles (James Bond Theme/Instrumental Dance*/Kingston Calypso) (3.10)
02 The Death Of Strangway’s Secretary* (0.32)
03 Bond, James Bond (James Bond Theme)
04 Golf At The Flat* (0.41)
05 Bond Arrives In Jamaica (James Bond Theme)
06 Leiter Tails Bond* (0.20)
07 Mr. Jones* (1.09)
08 Love At Last (Queens Club Source)
09 Under The Mango Tree (Monty Norman Version - Club Source)
10 Leiter Meets Bond* (1.08)
11 Jump Up
12 Under The Mango Tree (Jazzy Instrumental Version - Club Source)* (2.08)
13 The Three Blind Mice Take Aim* (0.23)
14 Dent Retrieves The Tarantula* (0.35)
15 Bond Back At The Hotel (James Bond Theme)
16 Death Of The Tarantula* (1.19)
17 Bond Travels To Miss Taro’s (James Bond Theme)
18 A Surprise Visitor (James Bond Theme)
19 Under The Mango Tree (Diana Coupland Version - Miss Taro’s House Source)
20 The Island Speaks (Film Version)* (1.40)
21 Covering The Boat* (0.33)
22 Boat Patrol* (1.03)
23 Killing The Guard* (2.38)
24 Drugged* (0.49)
25 Meeting Dr. No* (1.20)
26 The Death Of Dr. No & Escape* (2.25)
27 The Marines Arrive* (0.40)
28 End Credits* (Underneath The Mango Tree Instrumental - James Bond Theme) (1.00)

24 minutes approx. unreleased music

BONUS
29 Jamaican Rock
30 Audio Bongo
31 Twisting With James
32 Jamaica Jazz
33 Under The Mango Tree (Instrumental)
34 Jump Up (Alternate Version)
35 Dr. No’s Fantasy
36 Kingston Calypso (Diana Coupland Version)
37 The Island Speaks (Album Version)
38 The Boy’s Chase
39 Dr. No’s Theme
40 The James Bond Theme (Dr. No’s Fantasy Instrumental)
41 James Bond Theme (Alternate Version)

Notes:
As is well documented, none of the orchestral cues from Monty Norman’s score made it on to the official soundtrack release. The closest we get is the track 'The Island Speaks', but that is subtilely different to the version used in the film. The OST consists of lots of source music and multiple versions of the same themes. The James Bond theme is used in abundance, but is never played in full in the film.

05 SPECTRE Island
06 Kronsteen’s Plan* (2.02)
07 Tania Meets Klebb
08 Punting (Source) (Matt Monro ‘From Russia With Love’)
09 Bond & Sylvia* (0.10)

16 Girl Trouble
17 007 (Film Version)* (2.16)
18 Gypsy Camp

26 Mr. & Mrs. Somerset* (0.36)
27 Kerim & Benz* (0.13)
28 Death Of Kerim
29 The Zagreb Express - Part 1* (1.00)

BONUS
40 Alternate Main Title (James Bond Is Back/From Russia With Love/James Bond Theme)
41 From Russia With Love (Stereo Version)
42 The Golden Horn
43 007 (Album Version)
44 Death Of Grant
45 Guitar Lament
46 Leila Dances

19 minutes 40 seconds approx. unreleased music

Notes:
The OST captures most of the score, but we’re still missing a lot of music. Most of the cues are short musical flourishes as scene-setters or brief iterations of the James Bond theme. There are several cues which were obviously intended for the film, but were dropped in the edit (The Golden Horn, Death Of Grant, Guitar Lament, etc). I’m not sure why ‘Leila Dances’ was replaced by the more generic belly dancer music heard in the film. The version of the 007 Theme played during the gypsy camp fight is different to the one on the OST. Interestingly, Editor Peter Hunt uses two cues from Monty Norman’s score for Dr, but these are cues which didn’t feature in the film. Nic Raine confuses matters by titling them as ‘Death Of Dr. No’ on his James Bond Back In Action album, when in actual fact, different music scores the villain’s death. Sadly the version of the main titles featuring an organ have never been commercially released.

    Jamaica Jazz was included in the movie (in France only) as Bond drives to Miss Taro's and remained slated for use in the movie until late in the day - if anyone is keen to include another cue in the main playlist for Dr No.

    Great stuff! I’d love to see more of this!

    @vzok, that’s interesting, do you know if I can find it like that if I switch the audio language to French on my blu-ray?

    Apparently that was how it was released in theatres in France at the time. No idea about physical releases. But it is like that on the Dr No music and effects track from the laserdisc. Try it around 49.50 here https://archive.org/details/dr_no-criterion_laserdisc-music_and_effects_track-ac3-1ch-48khz-delay-0ms

    I think that the Death of Dr No track that Nic Raine recorded is actually used in the scene straight after his death, as Bond runs around looking for Honey.

    @mattjoes did a cue sequencing guide for Goldfinger when he published his cue recreations.
