007 Soundtrack: The Man with the Golden Gun (1974)
SOUNDTRACK RELEASED: 1974
SCORE COMPOSER: John Barry
TITLE SONG: "The Man with the Golden Gun"
COMPOSED BY: John Barry, Don Black
COMPOSED BY: John Barry, Don Black
PERFORMED BY: Lulu
The Man with the Golden Gun is the soundtrack for the ninth James Bond film of the same name.
Barry considered the theme tune – the only Bond film title track not to chart as a single in either the U.K. or U.S. – and score to be among the weakest of his contributions to the series: "It's the one I hate most... it just never happened for me." Certainly the title song is notable for having suggestive lyrics, and during a TV celebration for the series' 40th anniversary, Lulu's performance was introduced with reference to its being the raunchiest of all Bond songs.

007 Book: The Man with the Golden Gun (1965)
Bond book: The Man with the Golden GunAuthor: Ian Fleming
Publication date: 1 April 1965
The Man with the Golden Gun is the twelfth novel (and thirteenth book) of Ian Fleming's James Bond series. It was first published by Jonathan Cape in the UK on 1 April 1965, eight months after the author's death. The novel was not as detailed or polished as the others in the series, leading to poor but polite reviews. Despite that, the book was a best-seller.
