John Barry , born in 1933, died aged 77 in January 2011 . I'll be featuring works by this late, great oscar-winning composer over the coming weeks for your listening pleasure, and w hat better way to introduce Barry's musical legacy t han with the brassy delights of his Goldfinger (1964) score, the soundtrack that locked down the musical identity of the long-running James Bond franchise. I defy anyone listening to the excerpts below not to thrill to the jazzy raunchiness of Barry's music. This is sexy, dangerous stuff... Alpine Drive/Auric's Factory Oddjob's Pressing Engagement Goldfinger theme, lyrics by Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse , performed by Shirley Bassey
