Cocktail Nation ...

In addition to the Quiet Village another must is Cocktail Nation. Hosted by Koop "the Lounge Lothario" Kooper, this excellent podcast is put together in Sydney, Australia which is not a million nautical miles from The Secret Island.

Koop shakes up a perfect blend of lounge, exotica and space age pop, garnished with news, views and tongue in cheek humour - Check out itunes or Cocktail Nation for downloads. That enough chat from me ... I'm off to listen to Episode 149.

Here's my highlight from 148... John Barry's 007.

Composed by John Barry in 1963 for the movie "From Russia with Love" and not to be confused with "The James Bond Theme." It was an adventure theme used in quite a few Bond movies, primarily during action scenes in From Russia with Love, Thunderball, You Only Live Twice, Diamonds Are Forever and Moonraker!
