Donna's Theme

I was trawling through Youtube recently and came across an instrumental that appealed to me.
It was called "Donna's Theme" and had been recorded by The John Barry Seven. It appeared as an album
track on the "Stringbeat" LP in 1961.

Most of the tunes recorded by the JB7 were written by John Barry but this was composed by Les Reed
after being inspired by the birth of his daughter.

I hope that you enjoy my version.

Very nice version Roger, sounds as if you used either a De Armond or Jazzmaster and not unlike how
it might have sounded had the Ventures recorded it!!!

Hello Mike and thank you for your reply.
Yes I used my DeArmond T400 in order to get a similar sound to Vic Flick.
