About this album

Jagged Edge is a sleek, suspenseful soundtrack from John Barry, one of cinema’s most distinctive composers. Written for the 1985 legal thriller directed by Richard Marquand, the score blends Barry’s elegant melodic instincts with cool electronic colours and a steady sense of unease, giving the film a refined but ominous pulse. Rather than overpowering the drama, Barry sharpens it with restrained themes and atmospheric orchestration, including the suite material that highlights the score’s noir edge. It stands as a strong example of his 1980s film work, balancing tension, emotion and sophistication with unmistakable style.
