A fine site indeed, one of my Favorites. Also you may want to check out the Bond Smells A Rat site which has a few CD covers I think. (The used to) Along with some of the fun trivia.

Welcome to CBn.

Ah, so they are, thanks Athena. I'd lost the link.

Bondmusic seems to do better with the cover artwork, but Bond Smells a Rat has more information. Kind of pick and choose.

Both Bond Smells a Rat and BondMusic.de are two of my favorite Bond soundtrack places.

However when my James Bond website launches, I plan to have one of the most extensive music section on the web. I have used BondMusic.de website as a guildline for "whats out there" and then used various sources to find all available flavors of Bond albums. That website has been really amazing, as I never knew there were three versions of the Licence To Kill soundtrack.

My website will feature lengthy descriptive reviews (and I stink at reviews) as well as high quality scans of cover artwork, and back artwork. Also when it comes to the Bond albums, I plan to cover all the releases.

I have been hoping to get my website up months ago, but there are of course delays. However if you are curious to see what direction I am going towards, here is my first page for the Octopussy soundtrack located at a temporary server.

http://home.ptd.net/...soundtrack.html

This is not 100 percent final, nor is the text 100 percent as is.

I also recommend this site for its good length reviews

Athena literally stole my word. Wow.

If you'll have more pages like that of Octopussy's, I can see that turning into a fine site. :)

Well Thank You for the confidence and I appreciate the feedback. Indeed all the Bond soundtracks will get this same treatment as this review. I already have collected most of "favors" of Bond soundtrack albums, including some rare bootlegs, and demo pressings. Just need to write the reviews, scan the artwork and rip the audio clips. What I really should be doing is working on the main homepage, and stop working in reverse, but all in good time, by the end of August I hope to be up.

Sounds terrific then! Kind of seems like it might be what I previously described. Bondmusic seems to be superior in the CD covers, whereas Bond Smells a Rat has the reviews.

If you'll have both, well...:)

Very well presented agent007jb. :)

I'm assuming you've modeled your layout on Filmtracks.com.

Filmtracks.com is one of my favorite overall soundtrack review websits (along with musicfromthemovies.com). I guess visiting it ever day, made some of the design elements sink into my head. :)

I can understand that, and don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking it as I really like your layout. Filmtracks works for me so why not take a leaf from them. :)

Can't wait til your site is fully up and running agent007jb, and thanks for the headup on musicfromthemovies as I hadn't come across this one before. Cheers, mate
