The series of Bond films spans over two decades, beginning in 1962 with 'Dr No'. Over the years there has been a number of changes in the Bond set up. The first of these was when Sean Connery quit the role in 1971 after 'Diamonds Are Forever'. The lead part then went briefly to George Lazenby who starred as Bond in 'On her Majesty's Secret Service'. This was his only performance in the coveted role before Roger Moore came on the scene in 1973 in the film 'Live and Let Die'. Today Moore still plays the part of Bond but now has had to contend with a return to the lead by Sean Connery when he played Bond in @Never Say Never Again' which was released as a rival to the Roger Moore film of the time 'Octopussy'. This album of theme tunes features the original artists in a selection of tunes and songs from the James Bond films between 1962 and 1977. | ||
Further information | ||
These BBC Radioplay Music discs are re-issues of tracks released in the original TAIR Library. These were exclusively pressed to the British Broadcasting Corporation for use in its radio broadcasts. BBC Radioplay LPs & CDs were produced solely for broadcast by BBC radio stations and featured recordings that were free from Copyright, containing tracks recorded by the BBC (or partner organisations in Europe, USA etc). A number were live recordings, but there are also versions of well known songs recorded in the radio stations studios. For the vinyl LPs the front sleeves were usually of exactly the same design, with a picture of the featured artist & title being the only difference. The rear sleeve notes the title, tempo, intro, duration, end, composer, publisher and blurb related to the track (so the presenter could appear knowledgable!) BBC Radioplay LPs have some unique recordings, and as they were usually pressed by companies like Nimbus and were for broadcast, the quality of the production and pressing is usually very high. |
