Victor Harold Flick (born 14 May 1937) is an English studio guitarist, best known for playing the guitar riff in the “James Bond Theme“. In the late 1950s, Flick joined the John Barry Seven.

On the Dr. No soundtrack, he was lead guitarist on the track, the “James Bond Theme”. Flick continued to contribute to the James Bond soundtracks from the 1960s through the late 1980s. He also played a pastiche of the “James Bond” guitar part for The Beatles’ film Help! (1965). One of Flick’s guitars, a Clifford Essex Paragon De Luxe, on which he played the original “James Bond Theme”, was displayed at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio.

He also recorded with Herman’s Hermits, playing the distinctive guitar riff in the intro and bridge of “Silhouettes“, a 1965 UK Top 5 hit although this is disputed by Karl Green of Herman’s Hermits in an interview on the Sky Arts programme “The British Invasion”.

In 1999, he worked with composer Nic Raine, backed by the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra, on the James Bond tribute album titled Bond Back in Action. In 2003, he recorded the album James Bond Now, featuring tracks from James Bond soundtracks and new compositions.
