Laurie Johnson will forever be associated with that magical, but all too brief, period in British cultural history when everything seemed possible and one cannot imagine "The Avengers" without its memorable music! The centre-piece of our collection is the extraordinarily powerful, original stereo recording of the 'Avengers Theme', a 60s melody that ranks with 'Strawberry Fields Forever' and 'Good Vibrations' for timeless period class and ensuring popularity. The emphasis of our compilation is on Johnson’s music that, Steed and Mrs Peel might personally have enjoyed whilst off duty. There is a real Saville Row, Man About Town quality to the programme of suave orchestral themes and cool jazz. Johnson's themes for Stanley Kubrick's 'Dr Strangelove' and for 'Whicker's World' are also included.
Theme From "Dr Strangelove" / Theme From "The Avengers" / Limehouse / West End (Theme From "Whicker's World") / Grand Central / Times Square / South Beach / Bali Ha'i / I've Grown Accustomed To Her Face / South Of The Border / Twango / My Favourite Things / Jenny / By Myself / Nevada / Pagan Love Song / It's A Raggy Waltz / Minor Bossa Nova / Beauty Jungle Theme / Charmed Life / The Donkey Serenade / June Is Bustin' Out All Over / There's A Plot Afoot / Lock Up Your Daughters
