Drop the name Barbara Moore casually into pop conversation and you will likely be met with blank incomprehension.
And yet, for the last 60 years or so, her music, in some way, has been familiar to all of us. The Pick of the Pops theme! The Saint! Duetting with Peter Cook on the theme from Bedazzled!
Bedazzled! is the first time the highlights of Barbara Moore’s career, and all of her best-known pieces of music, have been assembled in one place. It has been compiled by Saint Etienne’s Bob Stanley with Bradford University film lecturer Mark Goodall, and has been put together with the blessing of Moore’s estate. Barbara Moore was an outstanding composer, arranger, vocalist and pianist working across jazz, pop, easy listening and library or production music in film, television and commercials. She broke ground as a female working in the almost exclusively male world of the above domains.
Her 1972 library music LP, “Vocal Shades and Tones”, recorded for de Wolfe, is considered a 10-out-of-10 classic of the genre. Her contributions to the Roger Webb Sound’s 1971 de Wolfe albums, “Vocal Patterns” and “Moonshade” were equally beautiful.
