Space: 1999: The Composition Of 1999

From the creators of Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet, Stingray, Joe 90, and more, Space:1999 was a 1970s British sci-fi series that was the last original Gerry Anderson production made for ITC Entertainment. The series, featuring the occupants of Moonbase Alpha having been blown out from Earth's atmosphere and sent into a nightmarish voyage through the universe, remains arguably the most controversial of Gerry Anderson's productions. Whether fans prefer the slower, more elegant first series or the more action-packed adventure style second series, this investigation studies into the music employed throughout both versions of the series.

Anderson legend Barry Gray provided the majestic score for the first series whereas Derek Wadsworth provided a more contemporary 1970s theme score. This book learns into the scores of each seasons. Learn how the series' music was composed, which scores came from Anderson's previous shows, other library music material, which were the composers' favourite music scores, and how the soundtrack of the series has lent Space:1999 to become a key feature of the program.
