Does anyone know which scene of the Where The Eagles Dare film features exact sample used in the intro of Bad Attitute song from Blue Rock album?:
“Broadsword calling Danny boy. Broadsword calling Danny boy. Over”
Also it is interesting to know samples from which source were taken speech samples in the Millionaire song from the same album:
“I think I can safely say, I’m on my way to my first million”, “I say”
“I’m rich – I am stinking ruddy well rich!”
“I’ve no small change","Well, you’d better go and get some, hadn’t you? Old garçon”

I think there are only a couple of possibilities in the film.
The Millionaire stuff sounds like Terry Thomas to me, which narrows it down very slightly

here's the Where Eagles Dare clip for Bad Attitude:
it's at 25:25" in the movie
the second bunch of Millionaire samples come from the movie:
Monte Carlo or Bust! [Those Daring Young Men in Their Jaunty Jalopies]

Thanks a lot for the answers! I just noticed that there are two different 'takes' of this phrase repeated in the intro of Bad Attitude.
It's interesting that both movies are from 1968 and 1969 respectively and the same score composer Ron Goodwin.
If anyone already know the timecode of the scene(s) in Monte Carlo or Bust, it would be useful to know. Thanks.

I just found these snippets in the movie Monte Carlo Or Bust:
“I think I can safely say, I’m on my way to my first million” 82:22
"I say" 7:39 or 8:37 or 66:26
“I’m rich – I am stinking ruddy well rich!” 8:58
“I’ve no small change" 66:26
"Well, you’d better go and get some, hadn’t you? Old garçon”

I watched Where Eagles Dare for the first time a few years ago and never made the connection, but Bad Attitude was never one of my favorites. Millionaire, however, is another story. I figured I’d eventually hear the quotes in a movie one day and recognize them but have no idea from where. And then a few days later I’d suddenly remember and have an AHA! moment that nobody around me would care about!
Anyway, thanks for the info, I’m adding Monte Carlo or Bust to my watch list. (Actually here in the States it was retitled to Those Daring Young Men in Their Jaunty Jalopies, I guess to tie it in with Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines)

Stuff like this always makes me wonder how on earth it ended up in a song?

I noticed that Blue Rock often began to listen, although previously I treated him cooler than Flash Gordon

I noticed that Blue Rock often began to listen, although previously I treated him cooler than Flash Gordon I think that might benefit from another go through Google translate. Recently you've started listening to Blue Rock again, having previously ranked it lower than Flash Gordon? |

I meant that when I first heard this album, it didn’t make an impression, but after some time I got into it. This is my second favorite album, The Cross. |

I think The Cross got better and better as they went, inverse to their commercial success. Blue Rock is by far their best album imo.

Who or what was the initiator? I don't think we know for sure, but I'd cite a combination of factors. - lack of success (UK record company didn't even put out the third album, German record company clearly didn't offer much tour support as they had to go and support Magnum) - Roger lost interest - Freddie died |
