(5 out of 5 stars)

"This London Symphony Orchestra CD was out of print and impossible to find at a reasonable price for years. I kept looking for it, though, because it has an excellent version of "You Only Live Twice." Other highlights for me include "Goldfinger" and "From Russia with Love." All the tracks on this CD are instrumentals arranged in a "pops" orchestra style.



I didn't care for the arrangements on some of the tracks. For example, the first track, "James Bond Theme" just didn't work for me. Nevertheless, I bought the CD as soon as I discovered it was back in print and I'm glad I have it now. Yes, I'm a big fan of John Barry's film music.



By the way, at the time of this review the "Buy the MP3 album" link takes you to a completely different album (by The Lush Strings), so take care."
