Ruud tried to sell some books last night by issuing business cards to anybody he saw admiring the book we had with us (we weren't allowed to have an official stall). Oddly enough, it seemed everybody he approached already had a copy! I took a card off him too ( I have the book ), I didn't know it was Ruud?    Posted:   Jun 23, 2011 - 11:35 AM     By:   ruudchr   (Member) Thanks, Neo! Ruud tried to sell some books last night by issuing business cards to anybody he saw admiring the book we had with us (we weren't allowed to have an official stall). Oddly enough, it seemed everybody he approached already had a copy! I was one of the people who already had the book Geoff (and rather wonderful it is too, anyone without one should defintely invest in a copy!), but I did appreciate the card: it will make a nice bookmark in my copy! Gosh, you are not saying the businesscard is going to be a collector's item too? Then I have hundreds! Maybe I should sell them on ebay, haha!    Posted:   Jun 23, 2011 - 11:37 AM     By:   ruudchr   (Member) Thanks, Neo!

Oddly enough, it seemed everybody he approached already had a copy! I took a card off him too ( I have the book ), I didn't know it was Ruud? Pity. we saw so many people. Which moment exactly was this? I tried to be discrete at The Gore with the card though put a few on the bar. Also "accidentally" dropped a few at the RAH and walked around with the book in my arms like a Salvation Army person selling their mag. I saw people watching but everybody moved on.    Posted:   Jun 23, 2011 - 1:52 PM     By:   Peter Greenhill   (Member) A real pity that you weren't allowed to have some for sale inside the Royal Albert Hall on Monday.    Posted:   Jun 24, 2011 - 2:43 PM     By:   'Lenny Bruce' Marshall   (Member) i HAVE some film score publications/books/sheet music/cards to trade for this title -including JOHN BARRY memorabila-!!! please lmk if interested bruce combrm@yahoo.com    Posted:   Jun 24, 2011 - 3:00 PM     By:   Grecchus   (Member) I'm sold. Looking forward to reading this legendary tome. Edit: While at the memorial concert I had to stop at the table where the programmes were being sold, prior to entering the circle. I picked one up and gave it a moment's thought. It was either the programme or the book, but not both. I reluctantly put down the programme and went into the auditorium, rather blind.    Posted:   Jul 29, 2011 - 12:18 PM     By:   Gordon Reeves   (Member)    Posted:   Sep 1, 2011 - 3:47 PM     By:   Gordon Reeves   (Member) "Well, since none of us have All the Time in the World, let's not wait till the last minute where groovy Christmas gift considerations are concerned ..." Oh, and Geof, that recent 'slow-selling book' quip was quite cute.    Posted:   Sep 2, 2011 - 3:44 AM     By:   Geoffers   (Member) "Well, since none of us have All the Time in the World, let's not wait till the last minute where groovy Christmas gift considerations are concerned ..." Oh, and Geof, that recent 'slow-selling book' quip was quite cute. I do my best, Neo! It occurred to me that a copy of The Black Hole will be costing UK residents more than a copy of the book - so I thought it worth mentioning. Not that I'm comparing the two in any way, of course!    Posted:   Sep 2, 2011 - 3:58 PM     By:   KubrickFan   (Member) Thanks, this thread keeps reminding me that I really need to start reading the book, which isn't a bad thing. It consequently also keeps reminding me that I need more of John Barry's soundtracks. Which really isn't a bad thing either.    Posted:   Nov 6, 2011 - 10:45 AM     By:   Gordon Reeves   (Member) The holidays are comin’, folks, so here’s another subtle-as-an-A-bomb reminder if you still haven’t put this tome into yer stocking, time’s a’wastin’. (Und finally, Rudd & Geoff, we’ll hopefully be able to send you our brilliantly-belated order anon, also, so please reserve a copy for us in the Fort Knox golden chambers, deal)? As for those who’ve already obtained their copy, we have a question (especially if you purchased it’s predecessor): how did you find this labor of love and how does it expand, enhance and enlarge the previously-impressive achievement that came before it?    Posted:   Nov 16, 2011 - 12:14 PM     By:   Gordon Reeves   (Member) We Repeat Yon Above Post-ed Question in Bold Department: Any takers?    Posted:   Nov 16, 2011 - 3:52 PM     By:   riotengine   (Member) It consequently also keeps reminding me that I need more of John Barry's soundtracks. Which really isn't a bad thing either. Same here. I've been picking up a lot more of his stuff lately. I've turned my wife into a fan and I've gotten her trained to recognize his sound. Greg Espinoza    Posted:   Dec 6, 2011 - 11:48 AM     By:   Gordon Reeves   (Member) "You expect me to admit it's not on my Christmas list?"    Posted:   Dec 7, 2011 - 7:28 AM     By:   Hansbudgie   (Member) The book is a fascinating in depth insight into the film music industry, a colossal tome (over 300 pages) on Barry's musical life, a wonderful, well designed, sometimes intimate, chronical commentary and examination of his career. The book is bulging with facts, figures, anecdotes, quotations, observations and an incisive musical appreciative postscript by Terry Walstrom, a perfect stocking filler for all John Barry fans. There won't be anything like it ever again.    Posted:   Dec 23, 2011 - 3:45 PM     By:   Gordon Reeves   (Member) ... Happy, Safe, Healthy and Harmonious Holidays to All ...

Looking forward to reading the book as I listen to the new King Kong CD.    Posted:   Oct 4, 2012 - 12:30 PM     By:   BrenKel   (Member) Placed my order with Amazon US. Looking forward to reading the book as I listen to the new King Kong CD. Its a great book. My wife bought it for me four yrs ago and I often pick it and have a read! And usually whilst listening to The Maestro himself!    Posted:   Dec 6, 2013 - 4:42 PM     By:   Gordon Reeves   (Member) And-a One, and-a Two, and a Trinity Reminder Department: Tis the gift-giving season, amigos, if you haven't copped a copy yet - they are still available, write, Meester Are?     General Discussion: John Barry - The Man With The Midas Touch    << < 1 2 3  >   Go to page:  1 2 3   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1 2 3
