This podcast features James Bond's association with the island of Jamaica. Jamaica is exotic, remote, and mysterious and that how it fits so well for Ian Fleming's novels. Fleming lived in Jamaica at Goldeneye and loved the island's culture, people, flora and fauna and much more. James Bond and Jamaica have had strong connections for over 50 years.
This podcast focuses on that connection with discussions by Don Topping (Radio announcer and actor in To Live and let Die) and with Keith Lyn (Lead singer for Byron Lee and The Dragaonaires, also featured in Dr. No). We also supply numerous tunes from Dr. No and James Bond music with an Island flavor.
Enjoy and please supply us with comments & feedback!
