Monty Norman - The first man of James Bond music

 

Ursula Andress

During that long flight they all got to know each other very well and it became like a showbiz party.

 

Among the foreign contingent of actors who were waiting for them in Jamaica were: Johnny Kitzmuller, who played Quarell; Jack Lord who played Felix Leiter and who went on to become a major star in 'Hawaiian Five-O' and Ursula Andress, undoubtedly one of the most beautiful women of her time.

 

Ursula played Honey Ryder, the first of Ian Fleming's great female characters to be immortalised on film. Monty hoped an opportunity might arise to write something for her to sing in Dr No.

 

History shows that's exactly what happened.
