 Review | James Bond Music
The history books tell us that James Bond was born when Ian Fleming placed his fingers on the keys of his typewriter in the early 1950s at Goldeneye, his house in Jamaica.

Vic Flick, whose incredible talents on the guitar helped make the Bond theme so unforgettable, has gone back to the drawing board, as it were, to see what he might do to augment a few of the original songs in the Bond oeuvre.
