Two more tracks that were played during Chinatown Kid, mostly whenever the bad guys like Tsai Hung or Wang Lung Wei is on the screen.

The opening theme to Chinatown Kid in clear quality.

*I'm also looking for the opening theme to 5 Shaolin Masters, used to have it on my old hard drive but lost it.

Dean Shek gyrating to this well known T.V show theme, in a scene from Kung Fu on Sale(1979) will give me nightmares for months to come.

 

 

 

 

This track appears on a number of indiependent Kung Fu sound from the late 70's/early 80's. Most recently heard it on the score for The Buddha Assinator(1980), when Mang Hoi's  character marches in his new found royal clothing.

Pino Dimaggio's "The Coronation" from Carrie is used in Bruce Takes Dragon Town.

Riz Ortolani's theme from Day of Anger is used in Monkey Fist, Floating Snake.

Music from one of my favourite films in one of the worst kung fu movies ever!

Here's are a few of Kung Fu movie soundtrack questions, I've been unable to find the answer's to.

 

Can anyone identify the song that starts around 1-minute 12-secs mark, in the following promotional trailer for Bolo(1979). I'm not sure who sings's the song?, or if it's in Cantonese or Manderin?. The song appears a lot in the movie, it's pretty much Bolo's characters theme song. Are the lyrics related to the characters in the movie?. Was it written and performed by the movies composer Stanley Chow Fook-Leung?. I would be very grateful to anyone who can help me out?. .

Thanks to a poster on the Classic Horror Film Board, in a discussion on THE BRAIN THAT WOULDN'T DIE, here is an atmospheric cue used in FIST OF FURY and SHAOLIN MARTIAL ARTS

Does anyone know where I can find the music for Death Duel (1977), it's got one of the best soundtracks of the Shaw Brother's films.  The track starts at 10:30, bits of this can be heard on the Flag of Iron soundtrack too.  Also see the second video the track can be heard at 1:16:55 during the funeral scene.
