Monty Norman

INCLUDES THE BONUS ALBUM "COME FLY WITH LEE" FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER ON CD

This release contains the complete original soundtrack to the first cinematographic version of one of Ian Fleming’s James Bond novels: "Dr. No" (1962). Filmed in Jamaica, it starred Sean Connery in his first Bond role, along with Ursula Andress, Joseph Wiseman, and Jack Lordames. Based on the 1958 novel by the same name, it was adapted by Richard Maibaum, Johanna Harwood, and Berkely Mather, and directed by Terence Young. The music, composed by Monty Norman, marked the debut of the iconic “James Bond Theme” performed by the John Barry orchestra, and also included various Jamaican tunes featuring Byron Lee and the Dragonaires. As a bonus, this edition presents Byron Lee and the Dragonaires’ complete album from the same year, "Come Fly with Lee" (Dynamic Sounds BLP 001), which appearshere on CD for the first time ever.
