CD - Best of Bond... James Bond


If you can’t bring yourself to part with £90 for the complete 22 film collection on blu-ray, then why not invest in this double-CD compilation of fifty tracks from fifty years-worth of the most iconic franchise in movie history.

The John Barry Orchestra’s seminal pieces form the backbone of this collection, punctuated by the enduring theme-tunes, all of which were undeniably popular and successful singles in their own era, yet made timeless by their affiliation with Ian Fleming’s constantly reinvented character.

Dame Shirley Bassey pops up three times with the bone shattering Goldfinger and the other two she did, alongside the likes of Paul McCartney, Garbage, The Pretenders, Tom Jones, Nancy Sinatra and Madonna.

They’re not letting go of Adele’s latest addition to Bond’s musical back catalogue just yet however, you’ll have to shell-out for that single on its own.
