Live and Let Die is the soundtrack of, and was written for, the 8th James Bond film of the same name. Taking a temporary hiatus from scoring Bond films, John Barry subsequently passed the baton over to George Martin. This was the first James Bond film that Barry was, in at least some aspect, not a part of. Barry was then working on a musical and had had quarrels with producer Harry Saltzman over his title song to Diamonds are Forever. The score for Live and Let Die was orchestrated and conducted by George Martin, and recorded at the AIR Studios. In his autobiography, Martin said he was approached by Harry Saltzman who was impressed by the orchestral backing of Paul McCartney's demo of the title song and wanted Martin to score the film. Martin agreed but then was surprised when Saltzman asked him who he thought should sing the title song; Martin said that Paul McCartney intended to.
