I caught a rerun of 'American Dad' tonight where they send up Bond movies, and while I enjoyed the whole episode my favorite part would most definitely have to have been the opening credits. Why? Check it out-- skip to about the 1:30 mark.
Now, see if anything sounds familiar.
How frigging sweet is that?
Years ago, long before I'd ever seen a Bolly picture, I bought an album called Bombay The Hard Way, where producer Dan the Automator took tracks from some of the classic Bollywood films of the late 70's and remixed them into a homage to the cinema of "guns, cars, and sitars." One of the cool things about the album, now that I've had a chance to see some of the films they lifted music from, is to hear it and realize how little was actually changed, because so much of the music was just that funkadelic to begin with. "Theme from Don" is a prime example of what I'm talking about. I mean seriously, that's some Dolemite shit right there. Maybe even Superfly. Dig.
