2010 Land Rover Discovery 4

[rjandorek]

It's a funky, rockin' guitar riff piece. Can't find it anywhere. Any clues?

Re: Looking for the music in the 2010 Land Rover LR4 Commercial

Nevermind. Found it!

 

[BarryOnespeed]

So, you ask if anyone knows who wrote the tune for the
new Land Rover LR4 commercial: something I've been pining to
learn. And then you say Never Mind I found it.

Anyone can FIND IT. WHO PERFORMS IT FOR CRYING OUT LOUD>

We have this great website and I'm still at a dead end.

Anyone?

The song is Simon & Garfunkel - A Simple Desultory Philippic (Or How I Was Robert McNamara'd Into Submission) Written By Bob Dylan

I hate to contradict you, but it doesn't sound like the Simon and Garfunkel version at all and I'm not sure if it is even the same song. Also, Dylan didn't write that S&G song....Simon did.

Again, not trying to be mean towards you or anything. Just sharing information.

When I first heard the guitar riff I thought it was "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'", but having listened to "A Simple Desultory Philippic", I could see how that might be it.

My dummy roommate says it's "Marrakesh Express" (which he also said was a Simon and Garfunkle song.) Wrong on so many counts.

I'd like a definitive answer to what this song is if anyone can provide...

its finally nice to see people working on this mystery. What a shame to still
be a mystery. Please keep working people.

I love the tune, it sounds so much like the intro to KT Tunstall's "Hold On" ... I want to contact the company and ask them about the song and who performs it but that isn't going to happen, I'm happy enough that somebody was kind of enough to put it on here so I can listen to it.

I contacted Land Rover and they kindly replied that the music was created specifically for the commercial. The music details are as follows:

Title: Hand
Composer: Dan Peppe
Artist: Dan Peppe & Jon Collyer
Publisher: Finger Music

It sounds like a rewrite of "These Boots Are Made For Walkin'" to me.

Hello all, it's a rip-off of Mist and Mast's "Glass Tiles"

 

[tosmand]

This totally sounds like the song "Glass Tiles" from Mist and Mast.

Give a listen and make up your own minds:

[speekingtree]

I agree sounds exactly like the Glass Tiles track with a bit of improvising.
Maybe the guy that "wrote it" for Land Rover was pulling a fast one

 

[Nevilock]

They both sound heavily influenced by The Keith Mansfield Orchestra's - Soul Thing (Funky Fanfare.) The guitars are just covering the horns instead of playing the normal guitar part.

Dang. Was hoping that was a "real" song....

 

[Lurker]

It sounds like Liz Phair's song Baby Got Going (rejected version).

 

[squaredc]

It reminds me of the guitar riffs in Simon and Garfunkel's Mrs. Robinson.
