1 Compare, for instance, the ensemble work in “When Flamingos Fly” or “Sunken Treasure” from Out of the Cool (1960) with Barry's underscoring on Goldfinger. Further, there is a noticeable similarity between the harmonies that support Miles Davis's solo on “It Ain't Necessarily So” from the Davis/Evans Porgy and Bess (1959) and the opening harmonic ostinato of Barry's Bond theme.
