Song sung by Johnny Rivers. The USA obviously didn't like OUR theme music for the series. Lol. BT was made in Band in a Box from RTs using a BLANK 4/4 Style. My arrangement is slightly different to the original. Style is BLANK.STY (Blank 4/4 Even 8th Utility Style) RealTracks in song: 995:Bass, Electric, HardRockLA Ev 120 RealTracks in song: 686:Organ, B3, Background Pop Ev 120 RealTracks in song: 2681:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm Pop8thsZaneLow Ev 120 RealDrums in Song:RockHardLA^1-a:Snare, HiHat , b:Snare, Loose HiHat The final chord is awesome. For those who like such things its EmMaj7(9). BB only has EmMaj7 and even then not all RTs have it, so I overdubbed my guitar playing the chord to highlight that required F#. In perfect hindsight the ending choruses pre Coda are probably too many but it is what it is.

Shock, horror! Did you spot the Goldfinger motif in the coda? Lol. Enjoy the SGU. Bests Ian Old Guys Rule.The older I get,the better I was!

I understand this is how the original guitar player played it at one of the Oscar performances.
