Shirley Bassey Performs AVTAK

Moore Not Less · March 2007

Yes, that's right. Shirley Bassey performs A View To A Kill in front of a live audience in 1987. I came across this "gem" at You Tube. There are many other clips of Shirley performing, including a Bond medley of GF, DAF and MR.

A bit too disco-y, but I like Dame Shirl's rendition. I've never been a fan of the song (sacrilege, I know), but Bassey classes it up.

Great find - but what crap backing music, I can't believe she passed that.

She didn't. That's why the entire CD was pulled back.

I've got a copy of this CD (one of these days I'll get round to writing a review of it) and believe me, it's quite astonishingly terrible; her cod-reggae version of We Have All The Time In The World just has to be heard to be believed!
