Dusty Springfield - Bacharach: Casino Royale Soundtrack
(Clarity Vinyl)
One of the most debated and sought after audiophile titles that has graced many Top Ten high-end lists for decades. This quirky soundtrack, to the equally quirky James Bond spoof by director John Huston features the music and arrangements by the prolific and very hip Burt Bacharach. The highlight of the set is the breathy rendition by the late Dusty Springfield on The Look Of Love. The main theme and supporting incidental music by a young engineer, but soon to be super-producer Phil Ramone, is still stunning even thirty years later.
