Примечание: The Big Boss was Bruce Lee's first big movie and gave him his international breakthrough. Director Lo Weis Film celebrated its premiere in Hong Kong in 1971, but its international triumphal procession did not begin until 1973. Since it was believed that the original Chinese film music was too far removed from local listening habits, Peter Thomas was commissioned by the German distributor to compose his own soundtrack. He succeeded in this with bravura. The result was that from now on it was used all over the world, with the exception of China, and thus became the "actual" film music of The Big Boss. Since our first release of this film music (2010), a lot has changed, which in our eyes demanded an improved new edition. In Peter Thomas' archive, four pieces could be found, as well as a slightly longer version from the film, which had been considered lost until now. These now replace the bonus tracks of the old CD, which were once composed for the film but not used in it. Unfortunately, Peter Thomas died during the preparations for this production, which he supported eagerly until the end, on May 17, 2020, at the age of 94 in Lugano (CH). This album is now dedicated to him. So is Bruce Lee, who would have been eighty years old on November 27, 2020. The great Adrian Keindorf is responsible for the illustration on the gatefold cover of the LP and the digipack of the CD.
