Live and Let Die.  This bond theme song has been recorded by the Bond Tribute Band The Name is Band and we love it.  This is an awesome track and is the Bond Theme from the Bond Film Live & Let Die which starred Roger Moore in his first role as the 007 Agent.  Here Bond meets the dark forces of Voodoo and Dr Kanaga, Baron Samedi, snakes and Jane Seymour as the Bond Girl Solitaire.

Interestingly enough Clint Eastwood was approached to star as the next James Bond after Sean Connery left – but he declined as he felt the role should be played by someone with an English accent. Roger Moore was successful and a new Bond was born.  Live and Let Die was written by Paul and Linda McCartney and was a change in style from the previous Bond Themes written by John Barry.  This time it was pure rock and roll.

The Bond Tribute Band The Name is Band love the light and shade in this bond theme.  Another soft start but with lots of rock and a whole lot of roll.  Our drummer Matt Venn LOVES playing bond music, especially this number – loving the middle section when the drums start flying and he can really get stuck into making the whole number sound PHAT! Gavin Lazarus on vocals can adapt his voice to suit any number and this one has a lovely melodic start but then Gavin lets his rocky side soar.  An absolutely fabulous Bond Theme.
