Bond is Brilliant5
I like the bond themes as so many of us do and this CD and DVD is a great buy fot those who love Bond Music.
The CD is listed in the same way as the films were released with the James bond theme from Dr No first through to You Know my Name from Casino Royal with a reworked bond theme by John Arnold in total all the themes are her as this list show:

1. James Bond Theme (From "Dr. No.") - The John Barry Seven & Orchestra
2. From Russia With Love - Matt Monro
3. Goldfinger - Shirley Bassey
4. Thunderball - Tom Jones
5. You Only Live Twice - Nancy Sinatra
6. On Her Majesty's Secret Service - The John Barry Seven & Orchestra
7. We Have All The Time In The World - Louis Armstrong
8. Diamonds Are Forever - Shirley Bassey
9. Live And Let Die - Paul McCartney And Wings
10. The Man With The Golden Gun - Lulu
11. Nobody Does It Better - Carly Simon
12. Moonraker - Shirley Bassey
13. For Your Eyes Only - Sheena Easton
14. All Time High - Rita Coolidge
15. A View To A Kill - Duran Duran
16. The Living Daylights - A-Ha
17. License To Kill - Gladys Knight
18. Goldeneye (Single Edit) - Tina Turner
19. Tomorrow Never Dies - Sheryl Crow
20. Surrender - K D Lang
21. The World Is Not Enough - Garbage
22. Die Another Day - Madonna
23. You Know My Name - Chris Cornell
24. The James Bond Theme - John Arnold

The DVD is a bit of a disa pointment with only 6 videos and a documentry, the videos are also quite old with none from after Goldeneye. I had hoped the documentry would be a full history like the List show of best Bond themes from Channel 4 a few years ago. Instead all we got was a couple of minutes on each of the tunes at most with some being passed over but as a adition to a brilliant CD these are very minor quibles. The exact list of the items on the DVD is:

1. A View To A Kill - Duran Duran
2. For Your Eyes Only - Sheena Easton
3. Goldeneye - Tina Turner
4. The Living Daylights - A-Ha
5. All Time High - Rita Coolidge
6. Goldfinger (Live) - Shirley Bassey
7. The Bond Sound - The Music Of 007 - Various Artists

All in All I say this is a great Buy for a Bond Fan.

The music is simply.....Bond!!!!!5
A fantastic collection of all the Bond theme songs from 1962 - 2006, forty four years worth of music & a few extra ones also. Disappointed that Patti LaBelle was not included! I guess someone's math is off by a bit! Claiming it a 40th Anniversary Collection! What makes it even better is that they did not include the most recent Bond song from Quantum of Solace!! Good or bad, you decide. The dvd is basically the music videos available from the Ultimate James Bond dvds from 1981-1987 & 1995. The documentary is also carried from one of the Ulitmate Editions also. Get it, I highly recommend it to add it to your cd collection!!
