Many people may not appreciate the work involved with making mono stems for a stereo mix and having the result sound professional, I definitely do! But getting the backing strings and synth fully mixed on the sound stage would’ve elevated this for me.

It's really a perfect theme that encapsulates this genre. The electronic start sets it in motion with a driving menace, but when the swinging horns come in, it takes you right to the swagger of hip London of the time.

That end scene with this music is one of my favorite scenes in cinema.

For those of you older dart fans, you may remember this one as 2 Time World Champion and Legend of Darts , Dennis Preistley s Walk on music which he used for most of his Pro Darts Career .

Yes. It took me ages to find this, but Denis Priestley is who inspired me to come here

Bob Hoskins' expression changing as realisation dawns on him .... then the fantastic late 70s Synths kick in, then the sleazy horn section, and that electronic Dr Who bassline. It couldn't be a more perfect snapshot of that era. The end of the beige suit 70s and the start of the pinstripe suit 80s London. If ever a film deserved a sequel it was this. A missed opportunity to make a "Godfather 2" type film. A young Harry Shand on his way up, cut into a modern Docklands story.

I think the stereo challenge for Silva Screen when they remastered the OST in 2016 was that Francis Monkman recorded the score in mono. as the film soundtrack was mono and the market for soundtracks was still nascent in 1981. So when Arrow did the 2K and 4K remasters of the movie , they also had to be 'creative' with the Dolby Atmos track. It's a shame as Francis Monkman's stereo productions were always lavish - the most well known of this era being 1982's "Achievement of Man" used for the BBC TV Series "Johnny Ball's Think Again".. One suggests he would have been equally careful with a true stereo master had it been needed at the time .

saw the flick as a kid. Great theme. British series/movies in the late 70/early 80 -> 100% well done

I’ve seen this film over the intervening 40+ years It’s the best gangster film ever made both here or across the pond The last few minutes of the film with Bob in the back seat of the car and Pierce pointing a gun at Bob No words -but Bob was just the best with his facial expressions /lack of them Francis Monkman - he died earlier this year🙏🙏🙏🫤🫤🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Absolutely brilliant, this movie is amazing and reminds me of getting to spend many hours with Bob. He loved making this film and never realised the end sequence would be so influential
