Lalo Schifrin & the LSO - Enter the Dragon Theme

[hutchy1111]

Don't concentrate on the finger or you will miss all that heavenly glory!!

[caribbeanstew]

what were you looking for when you attacked my guards?

[GregOBehave]

@caribbeanstew - "Wasn't me"

[hutchy1111]

@GregOBehave - "You were the only man outside the palace"

[GregOBehave]

@hutchy1111 - "I was outside. But I wasn't the only one"  some other kat was out there prancing around in a tight one piece jumpsuit.

[FoxkillFox]

This is totally amazing!

[snbart]

it is so sad to hear this and think - he didn't even get to see what he had created. REALLY REALLY SAD

[LoneAkita]

@snbart

if you mean Bruce didnt get to see Enter The Dragon, dont worry my friend...he seen it before he died, before it was released publicly...and he was very happy :)

[womblewandering]

I mean it comes at 55 secs

[womblewandering]

The master music comes at 1:02. Boom......boom......

[donnahide]

Man..You come right out of a comic book..

[planetrockford]

He is the Clem Portman of film and television scores.

[capnspl0tch]

You can call it the art of fighting without fighting.

[MusicEd1]

An absolute MASTER composer! He is my very favorite. Composing for movies/t.v. is ultimately what I would love to do. I'm working on it. This man and his work, continue to be a source of unlimited inspiration. His ideas are incredibly powerful and intense. Wow! Peace.

[Justynlol75]

OMG!! Absolute perfectionism.....especially at 2:19 when the main title kicks in. I just experienced a massive wave of adrenalin course through my body when this music was playing. I would have loved to have gone to this!

Schifrin was incredible though all throughout his career, but for what my opinion is worth, he definitely reached a peak in those years from '68 to '73 with Bullitt (68) going on to Dirty Harry (71) to Enter the Dragon (73) Beauuuutiful stuff! :o)

[jonteen1]

Lets not forget Bernard Alfred "Jack" Nitzsche (RIP)

[soulful777]

Amazing play. Five thousand stars.

[rkmugen]

Mr. Han.... "you come right_out_of_a_comic_book!" XD

[oliverecords]

@rkmugen One of my favourite lines ever! Poor Williams.

[Ddhandarah]

@Zenman1976 Robocop was indeed scored by Basil Poledouris.

[fghcdd]

awesome! 

[rollinthunder68x1]

where you going jigg ? hong kong via hawaii , he aint going to hawaii !

[Zenman1976]

@Banner1979 Wasnt Robocop scored by Basil Poledouris.. It was according to the OST I have??

[Banner1979]

@Destiny1389 I know what you mean. Jerry Fielding was a very good one, too (he did The Wild Bunch and The Outlaw Josey Wales).

[luiseldragon]

EL DIA Q ME MUERA DESEO Q SAN PEDRO ME RECIBA CON ESTA CANCION EN EL CIELO BRUCE LEE POR SIEMPRE

[DeathFromAbove1981]

Some tea, Mr Braithwaite?

[uani69]

Your style is unorthodox

-but effective

[AMER1C0]

Apoteosico!

Alex Acuna, un extraordinario percusionista peruano que vale oro en el extranjero, pero aqui en Peru casi un desconocido. PLOP!

[luiseldragon]

BRUCE LEE EL MEJOR DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOSSSSSS LIMA -PERU

[luiseldragon]

yo sabia q algun dia iba encontrar este video GRANDE BRUCE LEE IDOLO

[mybluelouboyle]

I would like to admit, that I was one of two idiots who disliked this... I was trying to pause it and accidentally pressed dislike

I am gutted... this is probably the best (and catchiest) them tune for a film, ever...

Sorry Lalo!

[GatewayGhettoProd]

Not exactly the theme...this was the portion where Mao Ying was being chased by "O'Hara" and his goons...

[TheNarcolepptic]

Great Lalo Shifriin! Bruce Thanks you from beyond the grave! Jesus is coming in time!

[asianmalefighter]

I was expecting for the "Wataaaaa!" in the beginning of this music..

[tag1989]

these guys did rush hour 2

[mrgeneski]

Saw this live, made the hairs stand up on the back of my neck. He also talked a little about Bruce, was amazing.

[TheMarat80]

Мощно задвинул. Ох, уительнейшая вещь

[TheMarat80]

Ахуеть не встать что за музыка

[Turd4331]

after watching enter the dragon, once again, ordered the sound track. great music last a life time!!!

[stormybman]

Yeah!

[stormybman]

They won't be playing the theme to any Jet Li films anytime soon in the distant future... 37 yrs later!

[molonlabe1964]

Thank for post this video and thanks God he is Argentinian.

Alexandra

[arashi86]

best theme ever, even when Lalo did the theme for Rush Hour 2 it can't stand up to this

[cedarjet707]

Get his book off Amazon, it's amazing - growing up in Argentina (taught piano by Daniel Barenboim's dad), Dizzy Gillespie, all the movie scores, LA in the 70s etc. Great read! It's called (dun dun dun) Mission Impossible.

Thanks for posting this great clip btw, I queued for four hours to get a ticket on the day for this amazing, once-in-a-lifetime show. God bless you for capturing this moment of it for us.

[diddleykudos]

Going to see him tonight - can't wait, looks amazing...

[Nalinho]

Me too, cant wait now.

Actually, hes on in 45 minutes! Better get a move on......

[soduno]

Lalo Schifrin is like Oscar Peterson & Art Tatum to me!

[sugarpuddin88]

Extraordinarily fantastic sound fidelity

Bravo! Excellent recording!

[CLOACAband]

the man!.you should hear tokyo ska paradise' version of this,its awesome:)

[Banner1979]

LALO SCHIFRIN = LEGEND!  Arguably the greatest ever action movie / thriller music composer. Close to him are Roy Budd, Jerry Goldsmith (RIP) and Michael Kamen (RIP).

[gstaadt]

@Banner1979 Agreed, but let's not forget Ennio Morricone. 

[Banner1979]

@gstaadt That's right. He changed the face of western music with the unique scores he did for the Dollars trilogy as well as Once Upon A Time In The West.

[greenelectra]

@Banner1979 He is up there with my favorites definatly.

[stoichen]

@Banner1979 100% agree

[FrankJamesParry]

I went to this barbican concert, wish they had made a dvd. A rare privilege to see Lalo, he got heavy on the piano that night too. Top score from one of my favourite films...

[MrDulcematrix]

fantastico!!!!

[4ohfreight]

lalo is definitely the best of our time

[youtsube2000]

great! I want live video 5stars!!

[bachkrabbler]

music art!

[djreadyred]

This is a melody of the score of ETD 1st Su Li/The Monk then Theme ETD

[walkabou5]

You mean medley?

[djreadyred]

yes on my 1973 original soundtrack of Enter The Dragon. There chasing Bruce Lee's sister to the opening score Mr Schifrin composed

[jman40194]

2:26 and 3:18 just gives me the chills when i hear it live.

[100000Bitches]

perfect

[deptford]

I was there. Well done for filming and not getting caught by the ushers :O) King Lalo

[carole131]

Thanks for that! We were right behind him in the first row on Thursday nite. Awesome!

[clydecazenas]

the best

[stoichen]

Amazing. A true legend

[antiochblade]

Lalo Schifrin also wrote the theme song to Kellys Heros , Mission Impossible , Mannix , Enter the Dragon with Bruce Lee and a number of Clint Eastwood movies . Hes written so many movie scores I cant even begin to remember them all . He is that good . No one has even come close to his acheivements in music for film yet hardly anyone knows this powerhouses name .

[danofsydney]

especially great at the (2:11) main theme.

Now that's a theme!

[danofsydney]

make that ( from/after 2:11 )

[Teshinator]

Damn skippy.

[danofsydney]

For more Lalo, check out my performance of Lalo Schifrin's Dirty Harry music on Rhodes piano

[rhythmruns]

Excellent use of percussion at 2:24.

[danofsydney]

Awesome!!!

Thanks for filming/sharing filone

[anaaaaal]

Don't look at the finger or you'll miss the heavenly glory ....

[Modmart]

I was there. To be honest mostly for this particular piece and it was amazing. The place went mental at the end. Stunning stuff and a privilege to see Lalo in action.

[jojacq]

beware of the intercepting fist...woooaaaaa!!!!

[Drunkenmaster770]

pure 'heavenly glory' as Bruce might say. Lalo and Ennio Morricone are the kings of film scores. nice1 4 this filone

[danofsydney]

'heavenly glory' lol

and also "emotional content" BL

I agree Drunkenmaster Lalo is incredible composer, Lalo and Basil Poledouris (epic Conan the Barbarian score) are my favourite 2, as well as Conti, Goldsmith, Barry, Hayes and Morricone!

[leorklier]

i was there too - absolutely awesome and ive never seen anyone get 2 standing ovations at the barbican.

[BobbyInternet]

Bullshit Mr. Han man

[KataVideo]

@BobbyInternet Boards don't hit back.

[CallumJStewart]

@BobbyInternet

Man, you come straight out of a comic book.

[womblewandering]

@BobbyInternet

Man...you come right out of a comic book.

[lewisham692]

I am proud to say I saw this live - amazing

[jeremygillies]

Fantastic - I was there, was an honour to witness the genius of Schifrin.

Thanks for posting!

[Mulango]

Ah, I can hear the bones snapping. "Don't think. FEEL."
