STIL commentDoes not cover the arcade version. "Bombjack 1 was based on the old coin op machine. The title tune is a Jean-Michel Jarre cover. We used to copy tunes like this all the time in the early days, I think the legislation at the time didn't cover computer based music, that situation didn't last very long though and we then needed to do original compositions (supposedly). Only tune 2 is from the original arcade machine. I seem to remember that in the original version of the music I used Lady Madonna by the Beatles." (MC)
