This 30th Anniversary collection of James Bonds music celebrates the extraordinary music that's been created for the bond films for over 30 years. The music is an essential part in James Bond's success in the movie business. Since the first Bond movie in 1962, Dr No, that theme has been recognised as the main theme for James Bond and many more themes produced every since Dr No has made James Bond and movie music history.
This CD includes ... ...we have all the time in the world, diamonds are forever and many more. These great songs represent each Bond film up to Tomorrow Never Dies in 1997 although there has been 3 other bond films been made since then most of the classic themes have been the first 15 films so there's no need to worry. However when more Bond films get released you may have to think of getting a latest CD containing up to date themes.

This CD includes some famous tracks as the original James Bond theme, Goldfinger, we have all the time in the world, diamonds are forever and many more.

Review of Best Of James Bond, The (30th Anniversary Collection) - Original Soundtracks
Advantages: Every number is memorable. Disadvantages: none
...Die - (one of his best post Beatles numbers!). We also have the sheer delights of Satchmo singing for me the most beautiful Bond song - We Have all the Time in the World, from Her Majesty's Secret Service and Carly Simons excellent rendition of Marvin Hamlisch's Nobody Does it Better (Spy who Loved Me).

Album Reviews
Musician (2/93, p.94) - "...There's always been something appealingly kitschy about John Barry's Bondsian motifs, with their broad big-band flourishes and delightfully cheesy electric guitars..."
