Bond composer John Barry dies aged 77
Born John Barry Prendergast in 1933, the York-born musician first found fame as leader of the John Barry Seven.
His arrangement of Monty Norman’s James Bond theme led to him composing scores for 11 films in the series, among them Goldfinger and You Only Live Twice.
His work saw him win five Oscars, while he received a Bafta fellowship in 2005.
His most recent film score featured in the 2001 war thriller Enigma, while a musical version of Brighton Rock, created with lyricist Don Black, had its London premiere in 2004.

Movie composer John Barry dies at 77
Jan. 31, 2011, 5:58AM
The British musician suffered a fatal heart attack on Monday morning, according to his fellow Bond composer David Arnold.
He wrote on Twitter, “It was with a heavy heart that I tell you John Barry passed away this morning.
“I am profoundly saddened by the news but profoundly thankful for everything he did for music and for me personally.”
Starting his career working on music for BBC programs, Barry moved on to arrange orchestral accompaniments for EMI and was approached to help compose the score for James Bond’s first big screen outing in 1962’s Dr. No.
He went on to devise the iconic style of music throughout some of the spy series’ most popular films, and composed legendary theme tunes including Goldfinger, From Russia With Love, Thunderball and Diamonds Are Forever.
As well as his work on 11 Bond films, he composed music for Born Free, Out of Africa and Dances with Wolves, all of which won him Academy Awards.

おっと、そういう御歳だったんですね。
ちゃんと音楽理論・編曲術を学んだロック第一世代として、まずはイギリスのロックシーンの扉を開いたという功績があります。007はその後ですね。
一曲だけ挙げるとすれば映画『野生のエルザ』のテーマ。これはやはり最高傑作だと思います。

デュラン・デュラン – 007/美しき獲物たち
Composer: Duran Duran, John Barry
produced by Bernard Edwards, Jason Corsaro & Duran Duran
Pop Chart Peaks: Billboard 1 (sales 1/airplay 2), Cash Box 1 – UK Peak: 2 (Gallup, NME, MM)
Also included on the soundtrack album, this collaboration between John Barry and Duran Duran introduced the 14th film of the official James Bond series, with Roger Moore in his final Bond portrayal.
Following “The Reflex” a year earlier, this was the second of the group’s two #1 singles on Billboard. Though sometimes lauded as the only number-one James Bond theme, that would be a Billboard-only stat, as “Live And Let Die” by Wings had reached #1 on both Cash Box and Record World in 1973 (#2 on Billboard).

Though the theme from the second Bond film is certainly familiar to many people, this gorgeous recording failed to register on any of the national U.S. record charts upon release.

Having previously been popularized on record as a UK instrumental by John Barry, this vocal treatment of the now-iconic theme was recorded less than a year after it was first heard in the Bond film “Dr. No.”
The John Barry Seven and Orchestra – The James Bond Theme(UK:1962/09, US:1962)007のテーマ
Composer: Monty Norman
モンティ・ノーマン作曲。ジョン・バリーは編曲を担当。
UK Pop Chart Peak: 13
First heard in the main title sequence of the 1962 debut James Bond feature film “Dr. No” (and in various forms throughout the decades of later Bond movies), this theme was the subject of multiple legal actions regarding its composer credit. Monty Norman is recognized as having written the actual “James Bond Theme” and not five-time Oscar winner John Barry, who arranged it for “Dr. No” and went on to compose the scores for ten additional Bond films.
