Description
The original 1967 recording of Casino Royale by Burt Bacharach in excellent condition.
Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass performed some of the songs with Mike Redway singing the lyrics to the title song as the end credits rolled. (A version of the song was also sung by Peter Sellers.) The title theme was Alpert's second number one on the Easy Listening chart where it spent two weeks at the top in June 1967 and peaked at number twenty-seven on the Billboard Hot 100.
The 4th chapter of the film features the song "The Look of Love" performed by Dusty Springfield. It is played in the scene of Vesper Lynd recruiting Evelyn Tremble, seen through a man-size aquarium in a seductive walk. "The Look of Love" was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Song. The song was a Top 10 radio hit at the KGB and KHJ radio stations.
The original album cover art was done by Robert McGinnis, based on the film poster and this original stereo vinyl release of the soundtrack is still highly sought after by audiophiles. It has been regarded by some music critics as the finest-sounding LP of all time.
