Slightly off topic.

A band called MUSE recorded a version of Man of Mystery and it can be seen and heard here: (Although not great quality.)

I wasnt aware of it until my rock chick daughter made me listen to her I-pod the other night... she thought it wasnt half bad.

Theres also a free mp3 download available here:-

And indeed Matt Bellamy, Muse's guitarist, is the son of George Bellamy, The Tornados' rhythm guitarist.

But my recollection is that, although it sounded like The Shadows (i.e. Stratty and full of echo) it was played at 25% of the speed of The Shads track...



I must agree with David,my recollection is also that the speed was much slower than the Shads track. I also remember seeing the film at cinemas.(it was long enough ago for me to remember!)

I hope this will work. I have attached a mp3 file of the intro of the Edgar Wallace Mysteries.

It seems to have worked. I found it some time ago on youtube and have extracted to soundtrack. The intro gives no information at all regarding composer or performer.

Good luck with identifying the musicians.
