John Barry

English composer and conductor of film music, John Barry is celebrated for his significant contributions to the cinematic landscape. He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1998. Born on November 3, 1933, in York, Yorkshire, United Kingdom, Barry's career spanned several decades until his passing on January 30, 2011, in Oyster Bay, New York, USA.

Although he is often mistakenly credited with composing the iconic James Bond Theme, which was actually written by Monty Norman, Barry's association with the Bond franchise is well-documented. He composed the scores for 11 Bond films from 1963 to 1987, shaping the musical identity of the series. In addition to his work on Bond, Barry created numerous themes and scores for a wide array of films and television shows.

Throughout his life, Barry was married four times. Notably, he was the first husband of actress Jane Birkin, who was his second wife; their marriage lasted from 1965 to 1968.

SRO Records Record Grading Guide:

SEALED/Mint:

Vinyl: Assumed mint, unverified until opened.

Sleeve: Visible through shrink wrap, graded as above.

NM (Near Mint):

Vinyl: Nearly flawless, with possible minor scuffs or hairlines only visible under strong light.
Sleeve: Appears new, as if freshly printed.

 

EX (Excellent):

Vinyl: Bright, with minor surface wear and hairlines, not affecting play.

Sleeve: May have faint creases or abrasions, but artwork is clean.

 

VG+ (Very Good Plus):

Vinyl: Obvious wear, scuffs and hairlines, plays with some noise but no major sound issues.

Sleeve: Worn with creases, noticeable wear, acid deterioration, corner dings, chipping, and possible seam wear.

 
Here's the typical SRO Records line in the sand. Anything below VG+, unless it's rare, unusual or just awesome, we're NOT going to sell online, much less go through the hassle of an ultrasonic cleaning, we're going to put it in one of many $10 Record boxes that we sell at Record Conventions and events. Some will wind up in the $1 Box, just to get it back out into the world for someone to enjoy or make a planter out of.

 

VG (Very Good):

Vinyl: Dull appearance with many hairlines and scuffs, somehow plays with persistent noise but no skips. 

Sleeve: Worn with possible seam splits and moderate ring wear.

G+ (Good Plus):

Vinyl: Numerous marks and scratches, plays with significant noise but music usually overpowers flaws.

Sleeve: Rough appearance with possible seam splits and water damage.


G (Good):

Vinyl: Copious unforgettable marks, probably a skip or jump.

Sleeve: Heavy ring wear and damage, likely large seam splits or water damage.


F (Fair):

Vinyl: It's round with nearly infinite damage, skipper gonna skip

Sleeve: It's basically what's left of the sleeve for the album
