There are a couple of tracks on this C90 side taken from Shaken And Stirred - The David Arnold James Bond Project, an obvious source of songs inspired by the James Bond films, but I also drew from a wider net, occasionally using songs from the soundtracks themselves. The films, perhaps surprisingly, had an influence in the cultures of southern soul and reggae that is also reflected here
