■■■神戸ロケ案件8■■■
神戸を舞台にした映画やTVドラマの
テーマソングを歌うたろーいう企画の8回目❗️
ウルトラセブン第14話/15話の
前後編ウルトラ警備隊西へのロケ地が神戸❗️
後編15話ではウルトラ警備隊の隊員たちが
ペダン星人を警戒し神戸市内を張り込むという
くだりで隊員はみな私服
ウルトラセブン、と言えば #アンヌ隊員 ❗️
は市街地で赤いワンピースにウィッグ
黒いベレー帽、ロールスロイスのドアを開けたまま
運転席に腰掛けて、足は車外で組んで
「異常なし❗️」と報告を入れるワンカットあり
その場所の名前は #アンヌ坂 と呼ばれていて、
Googleマップでもポイントされるくらい一般的❗️
阪急六甲駅から「神戸六甲線」を山の方に
歩いて行く途中で神戸大学の学生さんの通学路
そのワンカットの背景に今は無き歴史的建造物
#ホテル六甲ハウス ❗️
1943年・昭和18年6月に開業
戦後進駐軍に接収、カトリック系の病院を経て、
学校法人所有の「六甲会館」になり
キリスト教布教活動・学祭向け宿泊所などで利用
1977年・昭和52年に解体😭
石垣に刻まれていた石碑を残すのみです。
#ウルトラセブンの歌 はOPで国民的に有名☺️
オープニングはクラシック的なおおらかさ
ビートinでジャズの比較的ハネない4ビート❗️
また2番と3番の間奏ではいきなり行進曲的な
アレンジでコードも複雑なクラシック的展開
作詞 #東京一 先生
作曲 #冬木透 先生

■■■神戸ロケ案件7■■■
神戸を舞台にした映画やTVドラマの
テーマソングを歌うたろーいう企画の7回目❗️
先週からウルトラセブン❗️
その神戸ロケが実現は
1967年当時のTVスポンサーの
武田薬品工業さん関西ロケ熱望によるものです❗️
第14話/15話の前後編ウルトラ警備隊西へ
の神戸ロケ地探訪いきますっ❗️
ウルトラセブンの神戸ロケの絵づらで有名なのは、
ポートタワーをバックに
ペダン星人の操るスーパーロボット
キングジョーとウルトラセブンが対峙するシーン
まず、前編14話・前編の怪しい男、実は
秘密諜報員の登場、は神戸ロケです。
また15話・後編の
キングジョーとウルトラセブンの
戦闘シーン、ドラマ内の設定では
神戸港ポートタワー付近です。
特撮スタジオのミニチュアに
ポートタワーが作られてます。
またこの箇所のドラマ部分撮影は
ウルトラセブン研究家によると、
ポートタワー周辺ではなく、
摩耶埠頭とのこと。
ウルトラ警備隊の方々や
怪しい男実は秘密諜報員と
ペダン星人が化けていた
地球防衛軍の頭脳ドロシー博士との
やりとり。
またそのドロシー博士実はペダン星人と
モロボシダン（ウルトラセブン）が
テレパシーで会話をするとこ。
本物のドロシー博士がキングジョーを
破壊するために緊急開発をした
新型爆弾をキングジョーに打ち込む
シーンなどすべて摩耶埠頭とのことです。
英語でスペリングの
#Ultraseven という曲は
ウルトラセブンの挿入歌です。
ややこしいのですが
セブンー、セブンー、セブンー、セブンー
で始まるウルトラセブンOPのタイトルは
「ウルトラセブンの歌」で、
英語スペリングのUltrasevenは
まったく違う歌で
歌詞もすべて英語の
劇伴用歌入りの曲です。
主にウルトラ警備隊が車の
ポインターで出動するときに
かかってましたねっ。
#円谷プロ 系劇伴なさってる冬木透先生、通常はクラシックや吹奏楽的正統派劇伴を作りますが、この曲では8ビートでハネてんかハネてないんかよーわからん🤣古いR&Bのグルーブを取り入れてます🤣🤣🤣
オリジナルでは、間奏の6小節目、14小節目の
ディミニッシュコードでのホーンセクションの
ハモリが不安要素に立ち向かう感じをうまく表現☺️
作詞 #東京一 先生
作曲 #冬木透 先生
