Today, from the Bond on Vinyl archives, we’re jumping ahead to the 1990s and listening to music featured in GoldenEye!
In 1997, the video game GoldenEye 007 was finally released for the Nintendo 64 home video game console. The game was based on the Bond film from two years earlier, and it raised the bar for not just being another movie tie-in, but it also redefined graphics and gameplay. A hugely popular game for several years, in fact, it is the top-selling game on the Nintendo 64 console that does not star Mario.
In 2020, Respawned Records secured the rights to all music and arrangements from the game. They re-recorded orchestral interpretations of the iconic themes by John Barry and Monty Norman, among others.
They have re-released the album several times over the past few years. Each release is in limited quantities and features different colors on the vinyl itself. My “Facility” or “Tuxedo” version (it’s labeled both ways for some reason) is limited to 175 copies. The music is excellent. It transports me right back to playing this game with family and friends in the late 90s and early 2000s.😁
