Spy Vibe's collaboration with the Cocktail Nation radio show from Australia continues with a new series- now live and streaming! Spy Vibe is featured in a podcast segment every month, where I introduce cool films/series and share recordings from the Cold War. This month I introduce the Flint movies starring James Coburn. Although they pulled out all the stops to exaggerate James Bond conventions, Our man Flint (1966) and In Like Flint (1967) actually surpassed their satirical intent with a heaping dose of COOL! Find out why I ranked the films #3 in my top-10 set design countdown here (main article with guest lists here). Jerry Goldsmith based both soundtracks on variations of the main theme and managed to infuse each track with inventive nuances and instrumentation that captured the vibe of the era. In this episode I play one of the variations from the first film. Tune in to listen here. For more radio action, go to Episode #1 (Danger Man) and Episode #2 (The 10th Victim), Epsiode #3 (On Her Majesty's Secret Service), Episode #4 (Roger Moore/The Saint), and Episode #5 (The Avengers), Episode #6 (The Prisoner), and Episode #7 (The Ipcress File), Episode #8 (The Man From U.N.C.L.E.), Spy Vibe Radio: UFO, Spy Vibe Radio: Danger Diabolik, Spy Vibe Radio: Peter Gunn, and Spy Vibe Radio: Jerry Cotton. And tune in to Cocktail Nation -the number one lounge music radio show- every week for cool soundtracks, swingin' jazz, news and more. Enjoy! related post: Mad For Mondrian.
