Af”™noon all. I hope your weekends were as lovely as mine (and that they were less of a drain on the ol”™ coffers). I”™m on the early shift, so am off home in t-minus 10 minutes”¦ this means Monday has been fine!
Today”™s mix is from Rhys, and it”™s a wicked theme in my opinion.
Call to arms: We really need some more submissions as the cupboards are getting a little bare. If you”™ve got something in the pipeline, get it in to us yo! Hell, we”™ll even help finish it if you”™ve got an idea and lack the time to finish it.
Laters,
David

Evening all again. I”™ve gone for a themed list here. The theme is “James Bond Artists but not James Bond Songs”. I think that”™s pretty self explanatory.
Here”™s the excuses.
1) Sorry that there is so much Shirley Bassey but she did do 3 Bond theme tunes. And I was aiming for a song per film
2) I”™ve only done the official films. Feel free to argue about the canon in the comments
3) No real theme song for Dr. No so took John Barry as the artist for the James Bond Theme and went from there
4) Just went for Paul McCartney rather than Wings
5) Check out the youtube literal version of Take on Me if you haven”™t already.
