THE LIQUIDATOR 'Main Title' - Shirley Bassey

THE LIQUIDATOR (1965) Aussie actor Rod Taylor plays a hitman and former soldier who is hired by MI6, in the person of Trevor Howard to do some liquidating. Taylor,currently a waiter in a Paris Bistro, sub-contracts the work out, leading to various complications, including the near assassination of Prince Philip. Very swinging sixties in tone, with jet-set locations, snazzy cartoon titles (Richard Williams Films) and willing ladies in mini-skirts.
Also starring Jill St. John, Wilfred Hyde-White, David Tomlinson, Eric Sykes, Derek Nimmo, John Le Mesurier, Gabriella Licudi and Richard Wattis.
Main title sung by Shirley Bassey, music by Lalo Schifrin and lyrics by Peter Callander.
Based on the novel of the same name by John Gardner.
Director: Jack Cardiff.

CLICK on 1st attached VIDEO RESPONSE to listen to the 'End-Title' for 'The Liquidator' soundtrack by Shirley Bassey. The 2nd attached Video Response is another similar recording by Shirley Bassey. It wasn't from an actual movie, but it probably should have been.

Thanks for posting the video, though I must admit, the song is of no interest to me...it's the film I'd like to see. Indeed, I wish someone on Youtube would post it up because the studio that released the film hasn't released it on DVD, and I don't have a VCR anymore, even if I found it on Video! So, the only option we who would like to see the film have is to watch clips like these on here.

It's very frustrating...but I do thank you for posting this up all the same!

Genius opening sequence.  Shirley Bassey, three Bond films and this one. All fantastic songs, she belts them out. As usual, not on DVD.
