1. Check out “The Sound of 007” on Amazon Prime, for a good film about the music in Bond films.

2. Also check out “Kill James Bond,” a podcast that goes through movie by movie, and offers critical analyses of the series.

3. Thievery Corporation’s “Saudade” is the perfect album paired with Vesper martinis. Here are a couple of songs mentioned in the episode, that give off Bond vibes.

4. Thee Sacred Souls has an album that will be coming out on October 4. Here are a few tracks.
