Leroy Holmes - Search for Vulcan

I was listening to an internet radio station on Live 365 and this song popped on:

I had no idea this existed, I wonder if there are more like this, really cool lounge version of the Thunderball soundtrack song of the same name. Any of you guys ever herd this one?

Yes, it's a nice version and one of my favourite covers of Bond music. Have you heard Roland Shaw's versions of various pieces of music from the early films? Here's his OHMSS- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xD-WkfYn3vQ though I prefer his take on "007".

Charmed & Dangerous

I've always liked the Roland Shaw versions too- had them on vinyl as a teenager and recently bought them in CD (he also did some great versions of other spy themes too).

Franck Pourcel's take on the Bond themes is also a personal favourite, though not to everyone's taste. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ITRhqqbBLKU ... gives a little taster.

Trawling through iTunes there are some good variations such as the Acoustic James Bond tracks and some more modern dance versions too.

Thunderbird 2

Its facinating listening to someone elses orchistration of Mr Barrys music, very good too.
Goldfinger, OHMSS and LALD all made me sit up.

Heres a question, the lyricalless version of Die Another Day played over the Ice Palace party, was that ever released as a track? Madonnas singing I can take or leave, but the theme itself is great.

Barbel

IIRC, no. It's not on the album. Haven't listened in years though!
