An indespensible guide to every James Bond film scored by the legendary composer John Barry.
Although I already knew quite a lot of the stories behind Barry's Bond soundtracks there were still some gems to be found here. The text was very informative & there were hundreds of excellent photographs. It was nice to see album covers from other areas as well as the films themselves, especially ones from albums I used to have on vinyl like Geoff Love's Big Bond Movie Themes & Roland Shaw's The World of James Bond.
This was a great tribute to John Barry's 007 music & I listened to all of the albums as I read the book. Superb stuff.
