[QUOTE="Glyfair, post: 1321627, member: 53"] When I run James Bond games I have a very deep selection of classic spy music. I have a two disc set of James Bond music. The second disc is very good because it doesn't have too much in the way of noticable James Bond themes (I believe a large section is a suite from Thunderball). I have a set of 3 CDs with music from the Prisoner, the Avengers and the Saint. The Prisoner is a big mish-mash of things, but by being selective, it works well. I also have a few "classic TV theme" albums to throw in when I want to tip of the style of adventure for the players to expect. If it's a very deep con artist type job I'd start with the Mission Impossible theme. If it's a more down to earth one, I'd throw on the I Spy theme. If it's a little offbeat, I'd throw on the Avengers theme. I used to occasionally play in a long lasting Champions game. Every session they would start with the Peter Gunn theme with one of the players giving a voice-over in classic 60's style of their hero team. It really helped set the mood. Of course, if you game is more modern, you might want to avoid some of the 60's spy shows and stick to more general themes. However, you really can't go wrong with James Bond music. You'd be suprised how much there is without the two classic themes creeping in. [/QUOTE]
