Stingray: Original TV Soundtrack Limited Edition [CD]
Following the success of previous soundtracks from Silva Screen Records including Thunderbirds and UFO, The Official Gerry Anderson Store is excited to offer a further original TV Soundtrack!Â
The atmospheric aquatic adventures of the World Aquanaut Security Patrol (WASPs) provided the perfect grounds for the evolution of Barry Grayâs own musical odyssey.
After navigating otherworldly vistas with experimental minimalism in Fireball XL5, Gray anchored Stingrayâs underwater exploits with a cannon of earth-bound incidentals. Employing flutes and gentle woodwind sounds to set the scene, Grayâs music drew attention to the wonder of the series premise, employing lush heavenly strings for the seriesâ closing theme, âAqua Marinaâ (a croon brought to life by in-demand vocalist Gary Miller).
The off-duty exploits of the WASP characters also allowed Gray to return to his jazzy routes, with the production team adding a loving reference to the composer in the episode Tune of Danger with a âGraysteinâ Piano. Episodic melodrama was once again brought to life with bold brass, and driving military marches would establish the WASPsâ base, Marineville, and an unforgettable Match of the Oysters (in The Secret of the Giant Oyster).
The DNA of the which would foreshadow the iconic theme for the Andersonsâ next seriesâŠ
