Barry’s Bonds
between 1962 and 1987 John Barry scored 11 movies from the James Bond canon of suspenseful spy flicks based on Ian Fleming’s novels from the fifties and sixties. even though ‘The James Bond Theme’ was originally written by Monty Norman, it is John Barry’s arrangement that is seared into our collective unconscious. having scored much of the franchise’s output over the first 3 decades (spanning 4 different actors portraying Secret Agent 007) John Barry’s work has left an indelible mark on Hollywood. this mix showcases music from all of the James Bond films John Barry scored, plus a few related extras, and loosely follows the “Bond Formula” (the general plot structure most of the movies follow).
