Arrangement: Tetsujin Tiger Seven (Opening Theme)
To complete the tokusatsu cat trilogy, I've done an arrangement of the opening theme to one of the darker shows of Japan's henshin (transformation) boom from P Productions, Tetsujin Tiger Seven.
Tetsujin Tiger Seven (鉄人タイガーセブン, Tetsujin Taigā Sebun), translated as Iron Man Tiger Seven, was a Japanese tokusatsu television series that broadcast on Fuji TV from October 6, 1973 to March 30, 1974 with a total of 26 episodes, produced by P Productions. Unlike Kaiketsu Lion-Maru and Fuun Lion-Maru, which focuses on cat-based ninja heroes in the feudal eras of Japan, this series is set in modern Japan. The international English title that P Productions refers to for overseas distribution is Tiger Seven.
Tetsujin Tiger Seven was apparently P Productions' attempt at a Kamen Rider style series. They even hired Shunsuke Kikuchi, music composer of the first eight Kamen Rider television series, to write the music for this series.
In the series, Takigawa Go (or Go Takigawa if you say in western naming system order) gets the power to transform into Tetsujin Tiger Seven from an artificial heart and a magic pendant, given to him after an attack of the Mu Phantoms. To transform, he utters the henshin (transformation) phrase "Tiger Spark." Takigawa Go is played by Tatsuya Nanjô (or Nanjô Tatsuya, who also starred in Henshin Ninja Arashi).
Go rides a Suzuki motorcycle with rocket boosters. When he transforms into Tiger Seven, the motorcycle transforms as well to become "Spike Go." Spike Go can drive itself, coming to its master's aid when Tiger Seven roars. As Tiger Seven, Go also employs a special Fight Glove he uses to destroy the monsters.
The arrangement I've done is for:
Sax section (soprano, alto, tenor, baritone)
2 B-flat trumpets
Trombone
Timpani
Glockenspiel
Vibraphone
Drum set
Conga drums
Tambourine
Piano
Electric guitar
Electric bass

Well, I'm doing the songs that I like, anyway. But yes, I wanted to expand my variety beyond TV game shows. You should know that for the most part, though, that I just listen to the soundtracks more so than actually watching the show. Plus, I didn't compose it; I just arranged it. Someone else had already composed it.
