Bond and Beyond: The John Barry Interview

More information

Another chance to hear Paul Sexton's 2001 interview with John Barry. The English composer, who died early last year, talks about his 007 years and a distinguished life in music.

Barry describes how he literally grew up in the cinema (with his father owning a chain of movie houses); as well as classic scores such as Seance On A Wet Afternoon and Born Free.

He also remembers the rock 'n' roll era of the John Barry Seven, when one reviewer described him as sounding like a 78 being played at 33 and a third; and he reminisces about some of his favourite Bond scores.
