Free Music Review: Groundbreaking James Bond Soundtrack
Hit: 5 Stars
John Barry firmly establishes himself in the musical annuls of cinema history with this classic soundtrack. The FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE soundtrack is an example of exceptional film scoring and a very satisfying album drawing on all the elements of the film's score to deliver a product that musically runs the gamut of rhythm, romance, intrigue and flavorful vignettes of the film's locale. FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE is considered to be one of the better Bond films in the series. John Barry began his "official" scoring duties in tandem with his screen credit on FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE bringing a highly recognizable and definitive substantiating sound to the Bond series that distinguished it with his unique and inimitable musical style. That has been a hallmark, which brings a cohesive quality to the whole series even in Barry's absence. John Barry not only firmly incorporated his prowess as a film composer with this soundtrack but also demonstrated his ability to establish his own unique sound on compositions composed by others. The driving "From Russia With Love - main title" from track 1. and the romantically erotic "Bond Meets Tania" from track 6. with a melody composed by Lionel Bart inimitably have that "Barry Sound" stamped on them. Once again Barry also demonstrated his unique and definitive musical handling of "The James Bond Theme" on track 14. with "James Bond With Bongos" while his "007 Theme" heard on tracks 7. and 18. bring a staccato and drive to the force of this James Bond classic. One of my favorite pieces on this CD is Track 13. "Man Overboard - Smersh in Action" which captures both the beauty and suspense ever present in the world of James Bond.
From Russia with Love Poster
From Russia with Love was a linchpin event for maestro film composer John Barry. After his first Bond score, Dr.?No, yielded a stunning main theme but little else of substance, Barry went great guns for Russia, composing a richly stylized soundtrack packed with adventurous melodic lines and taut, inventive arrangements. Though Barry didn't actually write the main Bond theme (that credit goes to old-guard conductor Monty Norman), he takes that familiar tune in some fascinating directions here, applying unorthodox instrumentation and elements of indigenous Russian music. Barry has never been as suspenseful a composer as, say, Bernard Hermann, but he excels with some downright chilly passages on Russia. The score solidified his role as an essential element of the Bond mystique. It also marked the beginning of an intensely prolific period for Barry, a period that would earn him the distinction as one of the 20th century's greatest film composers. From his Bond-film work to The Ipcress File to Midnight Cowboy (and many sublime points between), Barry's mid- to late-'60s canon is without peer. Russia was his springboard. --Matt HanksSoundtracks Music CDs
