Shaw Bros Music Question


Guest gerund

Recommended Posts

Hey, this is my first post on this forum, but I have been enjoying reading for the past few weeks now. I was wondering if anyone knew if there had ever been original music created for the Shaw movies. I know much of it was used over and over again, and there are composer credits on the films, but I get the feeling that the music was yoinked from Hollywood stuff (like the "Ironside" music in Five Fingers of Death).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It was a mixture of both.

The composer wouldn't have the time or money to create an all new score, so much of the music was either swiped from Hollywood or taken from library tracks.

Quite often the theme tune or song would be exclusive though...
