These musicians rely too much on electronics in their interpretation of the Bond theme songs. I listened to two-thirds of the album before selling it to the half-price store.

If you appreciate the Bond music without having to listen to someone sing the songs, then this CD will be your favorite. Only two tracks are weak(License to Kill and The Spy Who Loved Me), but all the rest are worth listening to. Especially good are From Russia With Love, and Miss Pennygill. These, plus most of the others, start with a special arrangement by the Soho Strings before picking up the John Barry theme. Diamonds Are Forever also deserves accolades as being especially beautiful. I recommend this CD over any other Bond CD.

As an owner of 19 James Bond movies and over 20 different James Bond Movie Theme CD's, I would have to rate this as certainly one of the best I have ever heard. Buying this CD was my best purchase of any of the CD's. Although it is missing my personal favorite (007) it makes up for it in all the other themes, making it my prime choice for Bond lovers and people who just enjoy his themes. This is an absolute must-own for any Bond fan. I give this 5 stars, without a doubt!
