1.0 out of 5 stars Not the original artists, and conveniently not mentioned., March 19, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Best of James Bond Themes (Audio CD)
I had my suspicion when I saw the price and it was only confirmed when I received the album, unfortunately it was NOT stated who the artists WERE on the page. I was also fooled by the remarkable forgery of "Nobody does it better", (really the only song I TRUELY wanted from this album, everything else was just gravy.) But if they had had "Live and Let Die" listed as a sample it would have been painfully obvious... I'd appreciate in the future if albums like these were labeled a little better... I skipped another album like this that was actually LABLED with the artists... Wish I could have skipped THIS one and not had to pay $5 of total shipping for something that I now don't own...

1.0 out of 5 stars Bond could use these CD's as skeet practice., March 1, 2001

This review is from: Best of James Bond Themes (Audio CD)
Expecting a wonderful rendition of the great themes from the James Bond movies but by different artists, I instead ended up with woefully imitated (at times VERY imitated), badly sung rip-offs. Not all of the songs like Diamonds are Forever even have the singing! Some songs like Man With The Golden Gun and On Her Majestie's Secret Service don't even sound like their original incarnations! A bad or unpopular song like Golden Gun could have benefitted greatly from a redo! I got rid of this CD "collection" like a live grenade (I will not even comment on the atroctious rendition of Nobody Does it Better.) Stick with the original The Best Of Bond... James Bond 007 for supiorior music by the original artists. You need these CD's like you need Blofeld feeding you to some piranna's. It's awful.

1.0 out of 5 stars My review, August 7, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Best of James Bond Themes (Audio CD)
I love Bond music but I found this CD to contain the lowest level of enjoyment. There is a saxophone jazz solo in the Bond theme that was made up for this song. Instead of ending with the guitar strum it goes into another sax solo and fades out. Thunderball is played at twice it's normal speed. The singers are lousy. On Her Majesty's Secret Service is mot even the on the CD. Instead it's a song that doesn't appear on OHMSS under it's name. The only memorable song is Casino Royale which sounds exactly like the original. Not worth it.
