Recommended music:
Today, from the Bond on Vinyl archives, we’re back to listening to Dr. No, From Russia with Love, Goldfinger, and Thunderball!
Billy Strange was a member of the session musicians known as ‘The Wrecking Crew’ and had quite a varied musical career from the 1960s through the 2010s. He was known for writing multiple Elvis Presley hits, including “A Little Less Conversation”, and was better known for arranging some of Nancy Sinatra’s popular songs, including “These Boots Are Made for Walkin” and “You Only Live Twice” (see the future Bond connection there).
This 1965 album by Strange features some really jazzy covers of Bond music from the first three films as well as other spy themed shows like Man from U.N.C.L.E. and Get Smart. A fun listen for sure!
