Damn. Brazil '66 was an absolute hit factory. I wonder if his music might be taken more seriously if it weren’t quite so popular.

That whole style of music is great, it’s impossible to be in a bad mood while listening to it.

I loved him in Marty Feldman’s, Last Remake of Beau Geste.
Tonight’s movie: The Hunt for Red October.

As an aside, it’s crazy to think that Jones wasn’t credited on the original Star Wars because he didn’t want to be. He considered his contribution to be akin to a sound effect.
If you’ve ever heard Dave Prowse’s on set dialogue - which is about as intimidating as a pot plant - the absurdity of Jones’ reticence will be apparent.

OK. Star Wars is closer in time to the Silent Film Era than it is to today.
