Oscar-winning composer -- via soundtrack.net. He won the Oscar for his wonderful adaptation of the score for "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum"; he wrote the (non-Beatle portion of) the score for "Help!"; also wrote great scores for such films as "The Bed Sitting Room," "The Magic Christian," "Juggernaut," and "Superman II" and "Superman III." Also did the scoring for TV's "The Persuaders." Quite good, actually!
