edna Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 John Barry died in New York yesterday, at 77. One of the big names in music in the XXth Century, his name will be related to movies forever: Midnight Cowboy, Out Of Africa, Goldfinger -and other James Bond's soundtracks-, Born Free, The Lion in Winter... and much more. He was Jane Birkin's husband when she was almost a teenager... and the father of her daughter Kate. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-12321610 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 What a special skill he had for putting the right music to the right scene. He'll be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanAm Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 I have 4 CD's worth of John Barry's music. For someone who started out as a jazz trumpeter, he had one heck of a career. R.I.P. John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
