Our most ambitious episode ever. I've assembled three knowledgeable people to discuss, dissect and inform on the fascinating story of the theme's authorship. It's not as straightforward as you may think. We don't aim to change the official record but rather provide a backdrop into the composing of one of cinema's most famous pieces of music. We talk about the events of 1962 when the theme was being developed for the first Bond film "Dr. No". Also discussed are possible influences for the theme. We then dive into the lawsuit filed by composer Monty Norman against the Sunday Times who claimed John Barry had written the theme. All angles and opinions are explored to give the listener a comprehensive view of this controversial topic. Join Stephen Woolston, Peter Greenhill, Terry Walstrom and myself as we explore the story of "who wrote the James Bond Theme".
