about

Some critics have argued that there was a 'golden age' of TV themes between the mid-60s and the mid-70s, with many iconic tunes credited to the likes of Edwin Astley, (Department S, Randall and Hopkirk (deceased) and The Saint), Barry Gray (Joe 90, Captain Scarlet), Lalo Schifrin (Mission: Impossible), John Barry (The Persuaders) and Ron Grainer (Doctor Who, Man in a Suitcase, The Prisoner).
The music on this album is inspired and influenced by the soundtracks of those old shows; in that sense, 'One of our agents is missing' is a fanciful collection of incidental pieces and theme tunes for programmes which only exist in an imaginary televisual universe.

But if you listen carefully, you might just detect a narrative thread running through this album. This might involve an agent during the cold-war period being sent behind the Iron Curtain on an espionage mission. As the plot unfolds, he might be drawn into a tangled web of intrigue before being captured, imprisoned and interrogated. During his interrogation, as the prospect of escape fades to the distance, he might well find himself retreating to a space inside his head in order to avoid giving away any crucial information to the enemy.

The album download is available for whatever price you'd be happy to pay. If you feel like making a payment, you might like to consider donating to The Beatson Cancer Charity (link provided in the 'contact' section). The charity does some fabulous work with people who have had a cancer diagnosis.

If, however, you're one of those folk who prefer to hold something in your hand, well for that ... you gotta pay. Please send £7.00 through the 'Buy' button above, then drop us a line (link provided in the 'contact' section) to let us know. You'll then receive both the digital download and the CD (the price includes postage and packing). Buying the hard copy will give you access to an exclusive bonus EP, containing 7 tracks which will not be available on any other platform.

The album will be available from Waste of Point Records from August 31st 2020.
