Requiescat in Pace
John Barry (1933-2011), the man who gave James Bond his cinematic sound: In memoriamlink. May the Lord have mercy on his soul.

The Rebel Black Dot Song of Mourning
John Barry, "007" via iTunes (T.L.A.M.)

Commentary: Barry was largely responsible for the "James Bond Theme," but the authorship is disputed, with official credit given to Monty Norman, who is willing to sue for libel anyone who claims otherwise. (My lack of pecuniary resources provides me with a type of immunity from such suits.) To mourn Barry's demise, I thought it better to use a song indisputably of his, "007," conceived as something of a alternate James Bond theme for the film From Russia With Love. Thank you, Mr. Barry.
