According to the list prepared by Vic Lanza when he was compiling the John Barry – The EMI Years series, some tracks remain unreleased.
However, it’s possible they were retitled and released as were some in the following list.
Some comments:
Interesting to see the Moonraker track listed and also Man in the Middle.
The two A Matter of Who tracks are curious since they are much longer than the version that *was* released.
Little Old-fashioned Love & Throw All Your Lovin’ My way are both JB vocals. They were eventually recorded and released by Larry Page.
The “Michael Angelo” track was recorded a couple of weeks after Roman Spring/Tears.
Walk Don’t Run (Orchestra Only) is very odd. Orchestra on Walk Don’t Run?

- Cat with a Fix (possibly retitled), 2’ 10”
