ELECTRONICALLY INDUCED MUSICAL ORGASM!!
5 out of 5 stars
ELECTRONICALLY INDUCED MUSICAL ORGASM!!
I don't know how I missed this when it first came out! What David Arnold has created here is something very special with very special musicians and artists. 7 of the tracks were originally composed by the great John Barry, (whom Arnold naturally succeeds) and will always be classics in their own right, but here given a new lease of life along with other well-known title tracks and incidental themes from the James Bond films.The STARGATE and INDEPENDENCE DAY composer went on to deliver scores for later Bond films and the hugely successful tv series SHERLOCK. A brilliant guitarist in his own right, David Arnold is the most modest of men, and his collaboration with musical director Nicholas Dodds and the artists and musicians on this album is a superb achievement.It won't be to everyone's liking - the 'purists' will hate it! I said this about English National Ballet's new reinvented GISELLE, the classic version will always be around, but things must move on!Only the 76 year old Giorgio Moroder is on a par with Arnold in the producing/composing stakes - even Moroder at his age has found a new audience - though I don't think we'll see David Arnold behind the record-decks in an Ibiza nightclub!This 'project' is definitely worth a listen!HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.(Super quick delivery)

    To be very picky the higher pitched sounds aren't as clear unless you turn it up quite loud, but considering the price I paid I have no moans, they far exceeded my expectations.
  • Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 July 2015
    You have possibly the most recognised global movie franchise here with guest artists putting down their own interpretation of easily recognisable title tracks under the expert hand of David Arnold. Just listen to 'Diamonds..' incredible!, or my personal favourite the understated and sublime 'All time high' by Pulp. 'Moonraker', and 'Thunderball' add to the selection and help you, the listener, to connect and feel the power of the music, and get an appreciation of classic theme tunes with a modern twist! If you like listening to movie based soundtracks then this a must, if you are new to this genre, you wont be disappointed, sit back and take it in, and experience....but if you can PLAY LOUD, there are classical Bond musical nuances and phrases within that only appear when the volume is top end, you have been warned.

    In the same year as Arnold produced the soundtrack to his first Bond film (Tomorrow Never Dies, 1997), he also released this collection of reworkings of Bond classics. Some work, some do not. This may be because I gave up on the music of the rock and pop world in the late 1980s (to me, the world had become innately conservative and had been transformed from a means of new expression to a mere moneymaking exercise), and so most of the contributors to this project are unknown to me.

    Many of the songs do not stray too far from the originals, namely `Diamonds Are Forever' (now with an electronic beat and interesting vocals); `Nobody Does It Better' (with an AOR arrangement); `Live & Let Die' (with a welcome harder edge; better than the original); `Thunderball' (a playful opening and with more kick); and `We Have All the Time in the World', sung by a surprisingly sultry Iggy Pop. `Moonraker', though, is a more-than-weak replica, and one wonders what here is the point of the exercise.

    Many of the re-arrangements do not add anything to the original songs. `Space March', for example, consists of five minutes of repetitious mumbling with little variation; the vocals to `All Time High' are ludicrously whispered; and the six-minute `James Bond Theme' is tedious beyond belief. One would never guess this was the James Bond theme and one would never care. Does Arnold know the meaning of the word `creative'?

    But it's not all bad news. I like the new `From Russia with Love', that retains its relaxed 1960s feel with charm, and Arnold's nine-minute version of the theme to `On Her Majesty's Secret Service' is interesting too: he takes the theme, adds a heavy rhythm and then breaks it up into pieces, whilst incorporating along the way the `Capsule in Space' theme.

    For those new to the Bond scene, people who were born in the 1980s and later, they may find more to explore and have fun with here as Arnold tries to make Bond's music more contemporary in feel and style. As I said at the beginning of this review, for me, a child of the 1960s, it sometimes works - but, alas, more often it does not.

    This album passed me by when it was first released, but I was re-acquanted with it when one of the tracks came up on the auto playlist at the local radio station that I present on. I then had to get hold of the whole album. There are some real corkers on this. Aimee Mann's 'Spy Who Loved Me' is a real improvement on the Carly Simon original, and I now prefer Chrissie Hynde's 'Live and Let Die'. Propellerheads 'OHMSS' is too much fun. I could go on and on - I suggest that if you want a blast of classic Bond tracks with a different flavour, go for it!

    Loved Bond movies since I saw Dr. No when it came out . Half the joy was the theme music which always conveyed what was about to come on the screen, as in cool, sophistication, menace, chills and thrills. David Arnold has put his own spin (along with his co-collaborators) on some of the themes and added to the legend of Bond music in my opinion with a superb collection. Outstanding stuff!

    5.0 out of 5 stars How did I miss this Awesome Collection for 28 years?
    Reviewed in the United States on 15 January 2025
    I remember back in the 80's (especially when CDs which just starting out), there were a lot of random cover compilations of Bond music, which were all pretty bad. That IS NOT this. David Arnold has been the composer on all the Bond films from Tomorrow Never Dies until and including Quantum of Solace, and he released this CD the same year his first Bond movie released. You can really tell he has a love and passion for classic Bond films and music, because these are some dynamic covers. Some are done pretty close to the original, and others are really modernized and take a lot of chances. But Arnold knows when to bring in the instrumentation and give that echo of classic Bond. If you are a fan of Bond and willing to be surprised with a tasteful and inventive re-imagining of some great Bond originals, you owe it to yourself to pick this up (even if you're really late to the party, like me).

    5.0 out of 5 stars 痺れました!アーノルドさん、流石ぁ!
    Reviewed in Japan on 2 June 2010
    1997年公開の『トゥモロー・ネバー・ダイ』以降、
    007シリーズの音楽を担当してきた、デイビッド・アーノルド氏。
    昔からボンド映画の大ファンだと言い切る彼が、
    「シリーズ旧作品の曲も、俺ならこんな風にアレンジするぜい!」とばかりに、
    ノリノリでプロデュースしちゃったアルバムです。

    僕はオリジナル・サントラ信者なので、他の人や楽団が演奏している
    カバーアルバムには今まで全く興味がなかったのですが、
    あのアーノルド氏がバリー氏の007スコアをカバーアレンジするとは、
    これはもはや番外編オリジナル・サントラと位置づけてもいいのでは?
    と思い購入。聴いてみました処が・・・

    ぶっ飛びました。滅茶苦茶カッコ良いです!
    1曲目、のっけから『ダイアモンドは永遠に』の主題歌アレンジに痺れまくり、
    続いて『私を愛したスパイ』のカバーボーカリスト、エイミー・マンさんの
    あまりにも綺麗な英語に鳥肌が立ち、
    何故に数ある曲目の中から、これをチョイス?と苦笑いを誘う3曲目にニンマリ。
    後半の『女王陛下の007』インストに於いては、呆然と聴き惚れるしかありません。
    オーケストラは使用していないので、全てシンセサイザー一本で編曲勝負。
    その分やや重厚感には欠けますが、それでもここまでやってしまうアーノルドさん、
    貴方、やっぱり凄いです。

    正直中には、うーんこれは微妙・・・な曲もありますが、
    往年の007シリーズファン、更にそのサントラファンであれば、
    これは買いの一枚と太鼓判を押します。
    是非その耳でお確かめ下さい!

    2.0 out of 5 stars An Exercise In Mediocrity
    Reviewed in Canada on 29 June 2021
    Many years ago, Gun and Roses covered Live and Let Die, one of the best bond song. They improved it just enough without wrecking it in the process and make a very good song great. The artists of Shaken and Stirred needed to have taken a lesson from GnR. I love just about every James Bond song, rating all but one between 5 and 10 with most being 7.5 or higher. The songs on this album all rate between 2 and 5 with most being a 4. They made almost every song not only worse, but much much worse. If you're a Bond fan, don't bother with this and simply get the compilation album with the originals.
