Comment:

Section One:
The Fanfare. (Track 1)

Section Two:
Kane. (Track 2)
Section Three:
A Flying Bike. (Track 3)

Section Four:
Ian Malcom Was Always Right. (Tracks 4, 5 & 6)

Section Five:A Bit Too Close. (Track 7)
Section Six:Smallville. (Track 8)
Section Seven: A Long Time Ago, In A Galaxy Far, Far Away... aka "Sarlacc Attacc". (Tracks 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 & 14)
All these tracks were conducted by Williams, though two were not written by him - Alfred Newman deserves credit for track one and Richard Strauss for track two. Credit should also be given to The Boston Pops Orchestra, and The London Symphony Orchestra, as they are the two that feature most on this CD. I have been listening to Williams' work alot of late, and I have refined this new addiction into a mix for my travels. Enjoy! 1h.11m.40s.

Much prefer the John Williams of yester year when there was a beat in his step. Nevertheless it is heartening to see someone else explore soundtrack.
