Description

The late, legendary composer John Barry was due to turn 90 on November 3, 2023. With host, Jason Drury and John Barry enthusiast Ian McDonald, CINEMATIC SOUND RADIO is happy to present a special edition of TALKING SOUNDTRACKS in honour of this occasion.

Before five-time Academy Award winner John Barry rose to prominence as a film composer, Ian McDonald was already a fan of his. Ian got in touch with Jason towards the end of 2022, expressing his desire to discuss his admiration for John Barry's music and to share some of the anecdotes about the composer.

In February 2023 via Zoom at his home in Bridgewater, Somerset, Jason chatted with Ian about John Barry’s iconic James Bond scores, Ian’s memories of the concerts and the time he met John Barry for the first time at a recording session at Abbey Road Studios, London.

Throughout the show, we will also play music by John Barry, as chosen by today's guest, Ian McDonald.

Enjoy!
