██ NOTICE: This is a _withdrawn_ CD containing rerecorded James ██
██ Bond tracks sung by Shirley Bassey, subject to legal issues ██
██ in 1992. This is NOT her best work, the best recordings, or ██
██ the best musical production, BUT, its a rare collection of ██
██ tracks that is hard to find and would satisfy all Shirley ██
██ Bassey fans and/or James Bond fans. This recording is also ██
██ known as "Shirley Bassey Sings The Bond Collection" (Icon CD ██
██ 007). /GPY ██
██ ██
██ ------------------------------------------------------------ ██
██ ██
██ These are all re-recordings of Bond songs, also including ██
██ the three tracks Shirley Bassey had performed on the ██
██ original soundtracks previously. ██
██ ██
██ The recording session for this album was in 1987, shortly ██
██ after The Rhythm Divine and it should have taken one week. ██
██ The album was due for release 1987 to coincide with the 25th ██
██ anniversary of "Dr No". ██
██ ██
██ The "Woman" magazine from June 27th, 1987 (with Shirley ██
██ Bassey on the cover) contained an interview with Shirley ██
██ Bassey and wrote: ... Now Shirley is back on form and has ██
██ just recorded an album of Bond songs to celebrate 007's 25th ██
██ anniversary this month. "I jumped at the opportunity" she ██
██ says "I loved doing Goldfinger again. We slowed it up and ██
██ now it's got more bite, it's a little more sinister". ██
██ "Diamonds are Forever is more sexy and Moonraker is prettier ██
██ than it was, it's much gentler. There wasn't the freedom ██
██ before because we were locked into a tempo to keep pace with ██
██ the movie credits. Now I've been able to phrase them the way ██
██ I want to." ██
██ ██
██ In the "Record Mirror" from August 22nd, 1987 (also with ██
██ Shirley Bassey on the cover) was an article about "The ██
██ Rhythm Divine" and her return to the charts, but then they ██
██ also talked about the Bond songs: Amazingly it turns out ██
██ that Shirley was also to have sung the theme to Thunderball ██
██ until it was given to Tom Jones. She recently recorded an ██
██ entire album of Bond themes but amazingly hasn't yet found a ██
██ record company to release it... Right now, Shirley says ██
██ she'd like to record "all these contemporary songs and do ██
██ them on an album". She stresses that she wants "something I ██
██ can relate to. You know, like I Want To Know What Love Is by ██
██ Foreigner. Now, that's wonderful." It's remarkable that this ██
██ had been written more than three years before the ██
██ Foreigner-song has been released on the album Keep The Music ██
██ Playing. ██
██ ██
██ These articles show that Shirley Bassey originally liked the ██
██ songs and wanted to publish the album. She even plugged it ██
██ on "Live At The Palladium" on May 3rd, 1987 when she mimed ██
██ to "A View To A Kill" and did a Bond-medley. ██
██ ██
██ But eventually Shirley Bassey decided not to publish the ██
██ recording. I don't know exactly when and why this decision ██
██ has been taken, but I heard that she did not like the ██
██ "husky" quality of her voice. The singing is sometimes even ██
██ embarrassing, like the warm-up in the wardrobe before a ██
██ concert. Another problem is simply that not all Bond songs ██
██ are suited to Shirley Bassey, and that her three original ██
██ songs are much better in other versions. ██
██ ██
██ But it's especially the orchestral backing and the recording ██
██ quality which is very poor - it sounds like it has not been ██
██ completed. Actually there's no orchestra, only a cheap ██
██ one-man synthesizer-keyboard accompaniment. You can't ██
██ believe that Shirley Bassey shall have sung along this ██
██ "music" and liked it (maybe it has been played later over ██
██ the recording of the vocals). ██
██ ██
██ Five years after the recording in 1992, the album was ██
██ released regardless and Shirley Bassey took legal action ██
██ against these releases, so they have now been withdrawn and ██
██ are very hard to find now. ██
██ ██
██ Additionally in 1992 an official collection of James Bond ██
██ songs had been released The Best Of James Bond û 30th ██
██ Anniversary Limited Edition. ██
██ ██
██ A new album "Bassey Sings Bond" with new recordings of Bond ██
██ songs was due to be released at the end of 2002, this time ██
██ with the full approval of Dame Shirley Bassey, however this ██
██ album was never released as a result of a dispute over the ██
██ recording. The album was removed from the schedule and I am ██
██ lead to believe that the masters have now been destroyed. ██
