This is my personal favourite Bond music:
PS
As a matter of fact, I have a tiny personal "connection" to Bond. According to Ian Fleming, Bond´s flat was on a little plain-tree´d square off of King´s Road in the Chelsea area of London. John Pearson has placed the flat at 30 Wellington Square.
In the late 80´s and early 90´s I had the privilege to live in one of the Wellington Square Regency terraces, built by Francis Edward in 1830-1832, although it was not number 30. At the time I did not know about the Bond connection. Maybe my neighbour, the German assistant military attaché was then the closest to Bond´s world - if one does not count former Chancellor of the Exchequer, Norman Lamont (Now Baron Lamont of Lerwick) who also lived in one of the houses for some time.
For all James Bond fans - and others as well - a visit to this, the most beautiful of all Chelsea squares is highly recommended!
