Same format as with Octopussy, inside you get a fold out poster along with history and story notes by Geoff Leonard & Pete Walker supplemented by some great photos. The difference being instead of added film dialogue ( the odd word from Mr. Dalton is sadly missed ) we get an extra 30 minutes of music. The CD Multimedia feature is the end of the Aston Martin ice chase which is well worth watching again.
Vintage Barry captures again the 'musical' landscape for the 4th Bond and mixes the themes so well into the action. The extra music includes the entire Gibraltar opening sequence and an instrumental version of The Pretenders' end song ( track 21 ). In the notes the writers have kindly listed the tracks numbers to enable you to hear the score in film sequence order.
If this is to be John Barry's Bond swan-song, then what a great soundtrack ! The Living Daylights is one of my all-time 007 musical favourites ... to the next 'Deluxe Edition' !

NB. The original vinyl cover has the same Bond poster as the CD but on the back a posing Dalton with gun and 6 super imposed photos whereas the CD's rear features an escaping Aston Martin during the ice chase.
