From the Archives: James Bond on Vinyl will return

Recommended music:

Today, from the Bond on Vinyl archives, here’s a bonus little picture I made a few years back after completing all my Bond on Vinyl posts for the year.

The 1977 theatrical version of ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’ ended with the text “JAMES BOND will return in FOR YOUR EYES ONLY” … BUT, due to the popularity of Star Wars that same summer, the space-themed ‘Moonraker’ was swapped in as the next Bond theatrical release. (And 45 years afterward, I altered that screen cap.) 😄

In the meantime, if you’re looking for more Bond music, Amazon has recently put out an 88-minute documentary, “The Sound of 007. ” The doc covers the past 60 years of Bond music. At the same time, they released “The Sound of 007: Live From The Royal Albert Hall,” which also celebrates 60 years of the Bond film franchise from the previous month’s concert in London, condensed down to 60 minutes. If you want the full version that runs more than three hours, I’ve got you covered there, too, with the playlist above.

Cheers! 🍸😎
