"The soundtrack to DR. NO has the best recording of the James Bond Theme. The other tracks are good too. They want to make you get up and dance. "Jump Up" is a real good dance piece."

"The soundtrack to DR. NO is one of the most overlooked of all the James Bond CD-albums. Composer Monty Norman's calypso love melody "Under the Mango Tree" is one of the most haunting and memorable in all the James Bond films. The bulk of the music on this CD is characterized by calypso motifs but it is "The James Bond Theme" that is best remembered here. "The James Bond Theme" composed by Norman, arranged by John Barry and performed by "The John Barry Seven" set the musical sound of the entire James Bond series. This is a classic."
