    I sincerely hope Arnold is invited back for Bond 26?!!!! He clearly loves the franchise. The 007 in concert is a perfect example of it.

    Yeah, I think if Arnold does another Bond score now it would be interesting, because we might notice a slight change in his style. Just like how John Barry changed and started heading towards melancholic and more romantic sounds...which I think started with his MR score. A style I really enjoyed too. Not that Arnold would change into that exact same style, but it's almost certain that slight evolution would be showcased, if Arnold does another Bond score.

    I think it's not certain he would do if it offered: he has said on Twitter recently that he hasn't been doing big films not because of lack of offers but because he's preferring smaller projects now. Perhaps he feels done with these big movies which presumably have a lot of politics and back and fro-ing; whether he would feel differently if it were Bond I have no idea, he may well do.

    Only time will tell? I think after the work he put into 007 in concert? It would be a very tempting carrot for him if dangled?

    He scored 'Confess, Fletch' recently and got a couple of interesting cues in there. Made me think he is still as ready as ever. I am sure a man's innate talents don't just go away. His energy levels, however, might be a different thing altogether. Still, I hope Arnold will be back.

    It’s possible, I couldn’t speak for what he may do or not do.

    Oh, Yeah. But I think I also remember him saying his pencil is always sharp for 007....in case, he comes calling. Like us, Arnold is obsessed with James Bond. He never gets tired of answering when asked about James Bond. So I can't envisage him turning down a Bond score, even if I can't speak for him.

    So this has just arrived, shipped from US to UK. It's taken about 3 weeks and I'm back to being 17 years old. It's great to finally, get some of the more musical cues from the film and to appreciate just what a great soundtrack this was.

    LaLa Land records are selling all 5,000 of the limited run and I can really recommend grabbing a copy.

    I should add, it's been a pain to get the CD into my Mac, and had to hunt out an old external drive just to fire up iTunes/Apple Music for the first time in about 3 years.
