Black Crow
Phantasy Sound
‘Black Crow’ could arguably be the best alternative Bond Theme never written. Soaring strings, beautiful orchestration, timeless arrangement, it’s the kind of classic British psychedelic pop that could easily pre-date its date of inception. Mind you, that holds true for much of 'Soft Bounce’ (Erol Alkan and Richard Norris’ first album proper), which feels like a real coming of age for this gifted duo.
