4summary Sound track  Jun 05, 2009
technically, this is an up to date (till Casino Royale, 2006) of the '30 years Anniversary Collection. me being a hardcore 007 fan, have all the original Sound track albums till date, and converted to my Ipod is the actual theme songs collection, which in theory, is the same as this one.
over the years, the theme songs have had various qualities, but have lately been on decline, the 'die another day' by Madonna being the worst i have observed, this particular track, rock bottom. no offence intended (i used to like Madonna's songs, back in the days...). this is just my personal opinion, when matched up to the Conery era tracks all the way up till The world is not enough.
but to sum it up, a 'must have' for any 007 fan.

5Wonderful CD  Apr 19, 2009
I think that this is the best Bond theme CD that I've seen. All of the others have other people playing them, but this one has the originals. Having "We Have All the Time in the World" was a nice touch, because even though it isn't a Bond theme, it is a beautiful song. Having the music videos for some of the songs was nice to, and I enjoyed watching the documentary about the Bond music. I would definitely recommend this CD.

1What about the title sequences????  Feb 21, 2009
I have not purchased this item for as much as I would like to have all the Bond theme songs in one place, I want even more to have the extraordinary title sequences that go with them.

This should be a no-brainer. The amazing title sequences created by Maurice Binder and others are as iconic to the bond franchise as the songs themselves. Long before music videos became commonplace the Bond title sequences were considered the cutting edge of visually interpreted music. Instead of teasing fans with a CD compilation of all the theme songs and a DVD of random cheesy videos, why not give us the same songs with their title sequences on DVD or better yet Bluray?

5Biased Toward Bond, But Still A Winner  Dec 23, 2008
I agree with the sentiments expressed in the first two reviews (the only two reviews at the time). Chris Cornell's song is a welcome addition to the Bond compilations and this track is superb. I also agree that the so-called Bonus Track is anything but, Moby's creation on the Tomorrow Never Dies soundtrack was much better. Madonna's song really stands out on this disc for me as the craziest of all the songs with the techno/digital beats, but we've all seen the movie and heard the song.

The Living Daylights and License To Kill were horrible movies, mostly because of Timothy Dalton, partly because they were sandwiched between A View To A Kill, which I thought was a great plot, and Goldeneye, which was Brosnan's first Bond movie. Anyway, for as bad as the movies were, the title songs were pretty good and they are well done on this disc.

The DVD with the 6 videos is great and it's a perfect addition to the Bond set. This package is well worth the money, I highly recommend it for all the Bond fans.

5The Best Bond Collection Ever  Oct 29, 2008
This is by far the best collection of James Bond film songs ever assembled. I really liked THUNDERBALL - vocal by Tom Jones because it is a real powerhouse and is pure Bond through and through. You Know My Name by Chris Cornell from CASINO ROYALE sounds terrific. The DVD has some great videos especially by a-ha performing THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS. What a great video and song. You can't go wrong with this 007 collection. The only weak cut is David Arnold's bonus track of the James Bond theme. Moby did a better job!
