I'll definitely need to check out the other posts. Unfortunately your series was mostly during my 2 week vacation so I missed most of it, and it would be quite informative for me since I'm only familiar with 5 scores from your list below, and those are all in context of the films.

Does the series cover "Soul Bossa Nova" from the Austin Powers films? Probably my first exposure to Jones and still a personal favorite. My high school band had a ton of fun playing it, and the audience always enjoyed it.
