Topic: John Barry: The Concert (1972 album)
I was just listening to this John Barry album from 1972: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKFjfl82Dgg
Does this have the earliest arrangement of Bond theme riff played by the orchestra? I didn't realise he came up with this arrangement a few years before TMWTGG, and here it has more of the feel from MR and later. I love the arrangements of the other Bond themes as well. Some of them sound much more mature than they did in the 60s. I suggest everyone check it out.
