Vic Flick

Victor Harold Flick (born 14 May 1937 in Hill Crescent, Worcester Park, Surrey, England) is a guitarist, most famous for playing the guitar riff in the "James Bond Theme". Before that, he also played the guitar riff in the theme tune of the popular early 1960s TV show "Juke Box Jury".

He has worked with many notable artists, including Tom Jones, Eric Clapton, and Jimmy Page. One of Flick's legendary guitars (a Clifford Essex Paragon De Luxe) stands in honour at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio.

He also collaborated with Merchant Ivory Film as composer, music arranger for "Autobiography of a Princess" (1975), "The Europeans" (1979), "Quartet" (1981), "Heat and Dust" (1983).

In 2005, he returned to the world of James Bond by contributing to Christopher Lennertz's score for the video game "From Russia with Love". The game was developed by Electronic Arts and starred the original Bond actor Sean Connery.
