Reply To: Box sets
Anyone gotten the new Barry box set from Quartet Records, The Polydor Years? How is it?
I don’t have that. But as you mention that I remember that I have that 6-disc boxset THE MUSIC OF JOHN BARRY – THE DEFINITIVE COLLECTION with recordings of the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra.
That’s a great box, if you are mainly interested in the essentials. I find, with Barry mainly the themes are interesting. Generally, I am not super interested in Barry’s underscore. Of course there are exceptions.
