The
region 2 DVD "A View To A Kill" which was released in
Germany on 08 February contains an approx. 21 minutes long
documentation on 007 soundtracks which is called "The Bond Sound
- The Music of 007" (German title: "Der Bond Sound -
Die Musik von 007", Spanish title: " "El Sonido De Bond
- La Musica de 007"). The documentation shows the development of
the bond music from "Dr. No" to "The World Is Not
Enough" by telling various interesting facts on the single
soundtracks.It includes interview with singers and composers like John
Barry, Monty Norman, Bill Conti, David Arnold, Shirley Bassey, Carly
Simon, Duran Duran, Nanc Sinatra and also interviews with several film
makers like director John Glen.
The highly informative documenation is only
included in English language but there are subtitles in German and
Spanish language.
As previously reported the US DVD release (2000 )
of "The living daylights" also includes a featurette on the
James Bond soundtracks - maybe that's the same?
