Unquestionably,Mancini practically owned the 60's with so much original plus memorable music;

His spy music in Arabesque is not to be overlooked !

I'm not familiar with that spy music! I'll look it up later today. Sounds good!

Well of course it's superb. It's by the master Mancini.

Yes, as was his music for "Wait Until Dark" and "The Great Race", too. Love Mancini.

You said it when you say the music is memorable. After I watch the film I can't get the main theme out of my head for a day or two.

Very entertaining film too. I've just rated it 8/10.

Good soundtrack.
The music during the fight with Scobie was a little odd though.
Seems like it was out of place.
