James Bond Thrillers - The Film Festival Orchestra

Dr. No
Music From The Spy Who Loved Me & Other James Bond Thrillers
As Performed By The Film Festival Orchestra
Springboard SPB-4079
1977

Somewhat obscure budget Bond album featuring a studio group doing covers of many of your favorite "spy" tunes. The first track features a female soloist for some reason. Once that moment has passed, the remainder of the album is all instrumental. The tracks aren't stellar 70s spy/secret agent tunes, but as easy listening goes the arrangements are inventive enough to hold you interest. Dr. No is the stand out track. The engineering/sound by Tom Owen is very good.
