THE RETURN OF SHAW.....ROLAND SHAW

Original LP cover (above)

The Roland Shaw "Phase 4 Stereo" collection

My custom cover (below) and on the outside two images above

This is the last of our Roland Shaw albums, This is a double LP set from the 70's entitled "The Return of James Bond in Diamonds are Forever and Other Secret Agent Themes" (do these albums have long titles or what?) and must surely rank as one of the best collections of its kind.

As well as the usual Bond stuff that has appeared on various other Shaw collections, here we have some great versions of TV themes played the way only Roland can. Fantastic covers of The Avengers, The Ipcress File, Mission Impossible & Our Man Flint amongst others.

Thanks to Rocket From Mars for this excellent rip.

Included here is my own custom cover design (brown version above) it matches my cover for Roland's "World of James Bond Adventure" posted earlier. I made it because I couldn't find a decent quality version of the original (as seen above in white).
