majestic Posted June 16, 2020 Posted June 16, 2020 (edited) Technically this belongs in the metal thread, but I'm not sure it would get the exposure it deserves there.

Gromnir Posted June 19, 2020 Posted June 19, 2020 (edited) speaking o' quincy jones, and am knowing is weird, but is possible our favorite kill bill moment were when we first heard the ironside sirens sound in tarantino's flick. were just too cool. HA! Good Fun! ps full disclosure: we prefered mr. jones' sanford and son theme to ironside.
