20. UNKNOWN 7 [6] (TV rip)
21. Inhumanity – Trevor Duncan [1-5]
22. Transitional Scenes Pt. 2(e): Project – Trevor Duncan [6] (TV rip)
All tracks are from CD / Lossless where available, apart from "Fireside Serenade" which is a website rip. "Molten Metal" has never had a CD release and comes from a Chappell library LP. The remainder of the tracks are DVD rips - a couple were originally from internal BBC recordings, the rest from ancient 78 library discs: none have been issued in any form since the 1950s and none are circulating on the internet.
We have seven unidentified tracks. Some titles are guessable from details given on the BBC production paperwork:
UNKNOWN 1 or 2 is probably "Radiation Area" by George Arnos. [EDIT - it's UNKNOWN 2. A better copy is here (http://www.mediafire.com/download/t27i867ffpo8lok/Radiation+Area.zip).]
UNKNOWN 3 is probably from a BBC recording of "Faust: Making of Homunculus" by M�ty�s Seiber. [EDIT: No, UNKNOWN 3 now identified as "Without Hope - Bridge 1" by Trevor Duncan, played at near-half-speed. A clean copy is here (Thread 191161). (Thanks to gnawingagony.)]
[EDIT: UNKNOWN 4 now confirmed as a M�ty�s Seiber track from "Faust". A better copy is here (Thread 191161). (Thanks to GinjaNinja.)]
UNKNOWN 7 is very probably "Dialogue of the Electrons" by Jack Beaver. [EDIT - Scrub that, it definitely is. A better copy is here (Thread 191161).]
[EDIT: A better copy of track 22, Project, is here (Thread 191161).]
I've included three separate tracks labelled "Music As You Work" - muzak piped into the factory during the workers' siege. Again according to the paperwork, these are BBC recordings of:
I Want to be Happy - Jean-Jacques & his Orchestra (Vincent Youmans)
'S Wonderful - Trio Francois Charpin (Gershwin)
Embraceable You - Jean-Jacques & his Orchestra (Gershwin)
...whether those titles are correct - and whether they appear in that order - I don't know. I've removed them from the main body of the soundtrack because: 1) they're featured music rather than incidental; 2) they're poor quality; 3) they're largely obscured by dialogue; 4) two of the three are extremely brief. If you want to stick them into their correct place, they go between UNKNOWN 6 and Disaster and Desolation.
Various online sources claim that a suite of tracks called "Mob Violence" also appear in Quatermass II. These are not mentioned on the BBC paperwork and only became 'canon' a few years ago following a post on the Missing Episodes Forum. However, none of the four available tracks are used in the series as far as I can see. These are in disgrace in a separate folder.
Where to put Inhumanity? The final section is used as the closing theme music for parts 1-5, while the first half appears as incidental music in part 3. I'd normally have positioned it as the last track, but episode 6 closes with something else. I've put it as the penultimate track, which is making my OCD side really want to spit blood.
Mars, the Bringer of War is also annoying - the climax was used, of course, as the opening theme on all six episodes, but the opening section appears as incidental music in episodes 2-6. I've included an opening theme edit and the complete track too, so stick them wherever makes you happy!
