JOHN BARRY | DEP Astronauta

No se ponía pantalones ajustados para enseñar paquete con sus pelos largos en un escenario, no tocaba la guitarra con su lengua, no bebía three cajas de Whiskey antes de un concierto para actuar, no salía con Kate Moss para limpiar las paredes de un estudio de grabación con la lengua, no tiraba televisiones por las ventanas de hoteles, no salía de fiesta con Slash y tampoco tocaba el culo a Elton John - o al menos no me enterado. El británico JOHN BARRY a fallecido con 77 años dejando una carrera musical que pocos estrellas del rock , pop o cualquier otro arte podría imaginar en su vida.

Lo suyo era la composición y su fuerte era para las películas. Su fama viene de ser el compositor de la música de las películas James Bond, pero eso era solo el pico del "iceberg". Múltiples y larga lista de premios y super aclamado este señor de la música era un auténtico astronauta del universo musical. Un gigante de tremendo creatividad y talento.

Gracias Señor Barry y DEP.

Te dejo con una lista de sus trabajos (premios) sacado directamente de la Wikipedia...es para flipar!!
