  1. This is a comprehensive list of all movies that were scored by Jerry Goldsmith and destinated for the big screen in chronological order. I didn't include TV movies, TV-series or the two mini-series (QB VII and Masada). I did, however, include all the rejected scores for motion pictures that are at least known to be recorded (Alien Nation, Gladiator, The Public Eye, 2 Days in the Valley and Timeline). For the collectors, I've noted the name of the label and release date of each score's most recent and most expanded CD set. I will eventually add what type of release (OST, expansion etc.) we're dealing with. In case you spot any mistakes that you have the correct answer to, tell me. #Tot. #Dec.

  2. I try What @Jay asked me to do, to be more specific in our threads titles... we'll see how time it will hold. So the lastest press news, says the 6 CD will feature the "reconstructed" programs of the 6 OST (in the case of the OT, we obviously speak about the LP programs). Yes, we calculated it, the 2-LP programs can now fit on a single modern CD. So that's it... now, we have to wait for new relevant information that will be given by secured sources (Disney, etc.) and some our friends who have contacts...
  3. Hey Sony, you forgot those recordings in your boxset... Please don't forget them in your next compilations!
  4. Sony announce the boxset for 19 january 2018. I don't think there will be any remastering. But it's great for new collector who didn't already own these superb albums. For now, we can assume of this content: 1 Music of the Night (BPO) 2 Star Wars Trilogy (Skywalker Symphony) 3 The Spielberg/Williams Collaboration (BPO) 4 I Love a Parade (BPO) 5 The Green Album (BPO) 6 Joy to the World (BPO) 7 Night and Day (BPO) 8 Unforgettable (BPO) 9 Music for Stage and Screen (BPO) 10 It Don't Mean a Thing if it Ain't Got That Swing (BPO) 11 Williams on Williams (BPO) 12 Summon the Heroes (BPO) 13 The Five Sacred Trees album (London SO) 14 The Hollywood Sound (London SO) 15 Cinema Serenade (Itzhak Perlman, Pittsburgh SO) 16 Gershwin Fantasy (Joshua Bell, London SO) 17 Cinema Serenade 2 (Itzhak Perlman, BPO) 18 American Journey (Utah SO/ LA orchestra) 19 Yo-Yo Ma Plays The Music Of John Williams (LA orchestra) 20 The Spielberg/Williams Collaboration Part III (LA orchestra) A little bonus, like the 2006 "Memoirs of a Geisha - Live Sessions" EP would be welcome... we don't know... source: https://www.imusic.dk/cd/0889854177928/john-williams-2018-john-williams-conductor-compact-disc
  5. Hi experts, My website tries to document the OST albums that contains a "Re-recording" (you can search using this keyword in the main albums page). Example: Checkmate [Original Music from The CBS-TV Show] (1960, Columbia, CL 1591, Re-recording) Theme From Checkmate; The Isolated Pawn; Cyanide Touch; Far Out Place; Hassle In The Castle; En Passant; The Black Night; Fireside Eyes; The Bishop's Retreat; Queen's Sacrifice; Shy Youth; The King Swings. So I would like to know if some are missing on my page. Any help someone? http://www.goplanete.com/johnwilliams/music/disco/albums.htm
  6. We talked about alternate takes & cues in an other thread and I wonder if a new section on my website about those "alt" would be relevant. Do we have enough to document them? Do a fan here have the exact infos about them? Do we know more than these ones? Do you think it would be relevant to document those alternates in one single place? ____ Alternates and where to find them Star Wars (1977) Abbreviations: OLP stands for original double album; FOXB stands for the Fox Scores/Arista 4-CD Box Set; RCA stands for the RCA Victor/BMG Classics "Special Edition" CDs. 1. MAIN TITLE--There are no more than five takes of the film's main title that were recorded by the London Symphony Orchestra. All five of these can be heard at the 5:00 mark of Track 13 of Disc 1 of the RCA. This is explained only in the CD's liner notes, not on the jacket of the CD package itself. Take 16 is the historic first recording of the "Star Wars Theme". The wind section was toned down for Take 17, and portions of the last three takes (18, 19, and 20) made up what would become the final film version of the cue. However, only two of these takes were used for the FOXB. Disc 1, Track 2 used Take 19, while Disc 4, Track 2 used Take 20. Take 20 was also used for the radio adaptation of Star Wars. For the original 24-page read along book and record (released by Buena Vista Records in 1977), the second reprise of "Luke's Theme" with added brass in Take 18 was utilized after the narrator says "Let's Begin Now". You could count the 45 rpm single version of the theme as a sixth variant since it was edited to over 3 minutes. But please don't count Meco's more successful disco version as a seventh variant since it was entirely rerecorded. 2. IMPERIAL ATTACK--As presented on Disc 1, Track 3 of the FOXB, some of the accentuation of the beats in the opening section are markedly different than the final film version. 3. BINARY SUNSET--This second portion of what is commonly titled "The Princess Appears" has somewhat of a history. Originally, John Williams based this cue on "Luke's Theme". For the final film version, it was based on "Ben's Theme", but in this original recorded version found on Disc 1, Track 13 of the RCA, you can hear how Williams avoided using thematic material for something entirely original...and unusual, that is if all you've been used to hearing is the film version cue. The final chord of this is about the same as in the final film version. 4. RESCUE OF THE PRINCESS (section 1) (aka "Shootout In The Cell Bay")--Presented on Disc 1, first part of Track 11 on the FOXB, you can tell this is an alternate cue by listening closely to the end section, especially the final crashing of cymbals and timpani (underscoring the Rebels jumping into the trash compactor). 5. END TITLE-- Found on the FOXB as the second part of Disc 1, Track 2, and again on Track 16 of the same disc. Here, you can clearly hear the horn section out of tune (sounding a lot like a high school marching band) when it starts to play "Luke's Theme". Source: http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Original-Triogy-Soundtrack-4-CD-set/id/9971 The Empire Strikes Back (1980) 1. THE IMPERIAL PROBE (Side 1, second part of Track 1, OLP; Disc 2, second part of Track 2, FOXB; Disc 1, second part of Track 2, RCA)--This is the original recorded version of the music following the opening prologue scroll where remote probes are launched into space and one of them lands on Hoth. The opening is about the same as the final film version (with the hidden introduction of Vader's march), but here this particular cue is more dramatic than its film counterpart. A 12-second segment (from 2:30 to 2:42 on the RCA) was left out of the OLP and FOXB. From the end of this segment, we go to "The Ice Planet Hoth" (see #4 above) and join Luke on his Tauntaun. The OLP edition was the second section of the track "Main Title (Star Wars)", while the FOXB was the second section of "The Imperial Probe (extended version)", and the RCA was the first section of "The Ice Planet Hoth". 2. LUKE'S NOCTURNAL VISITOR (remains unreleased)--This is a slight variation on the final film version of this track, especially the end section of this. This alternate version was never used in the film, obviously, but when you listen to the one in the actual film you'll get an idea on the slow tempo the end section might have been had it been used. 3. CARBON FREEZE (Disc 2, portion of first part of Track 9, RCA)--Original version of a 40-second segment covering a section from where Han's carbon frozen effigy is being lifted from the chamber up through an Imperial officer signaling Luke's arrival. This passage is a more dark-sounding piece than the one heard in the final film. While the RCA presents both 40-second segments, this particular piece can be found on the section from 2:40 to 3:21 on Track 9. 4. THE REBEL FLEET (Side 4, Track 4, OLP; Disc 2, first part of Track 12, RCA)--This is the original recorded version of the epilogue music that leads to the end credits. The very opening is different (with some strings not clearly present in the final film version), and it has been extended a bit both in length and composition. While the FOXB presents the version as heard in the original release print, this alternate cue as heard on the OLP and RCA can be heard in the "special edition" film re-release (albeit in edited form). 5. END CREDITS (Side 4, second part of Track 4, OLP; Disc 2, second part of Track 19, FOXB; Disc 2, second part of Track 12, RCA)--As far as tempo goes, this version of the end credits is a wee bit slower than the one in the film (you'll notice the difference when you listen to the film version), but it still harkens on the same themes ("Luke's Theme", "Yoda's Theme", "The Imperial March", "Han and Leia", "Rebel Fanfare"). On the OLP (which was part of the "Finale" cue), "The Imperial March" section has been tracked with a portion of the concert arrangement version (which we'll talk about in a moment), while Disc 2 of the FOXB and RCA presents this as originally recorded. Source: http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Original-Triogy-Soundtrack-4-CD-set/id/9971 Return of the Jedi (1983) 1. LAPTI NEK (film version--Instrumental) (remains unreleased)--This is also the film version of the tune heard at Jabba's palace, only without vocals. In a sense, this remains unreleased, but in another sense, it's not. This version was used in the radio adaptation of Jedi (which is itself available on CD). 2. LAPTI NEK (album version) (Side 1, Track 6, OLP; Disc 4, Track 11, FOXB)--Yet another alternate version of the Jabba party tune. Entirely re-orchestrated with different Huttese vocals, and the London Symphony Orchestra is used for back-up. This was even released as a music video (as found on the LaserDisc box set, The Star Wars Trilogy: The Definitive Collection). The music video would make it's way onto VH1's "Hollywood & Vinyl" TV show, where it was presented as part of a preview for the blockbuster film soundtracks of 1998. 3. LAPTI NEK (English version) (remains unreleased)--Here is a fourth version of the Jabba party tune, this time done in the English language! The Huttese title translates to "Fancy Man". It too is unreleased, but it was heard in the PBS documentary From Star Wars To Jedi: The Making Of A Saga. 4. HAN SOLO RETURNS (Alternate version #2) (Disc 1, Track 5, RCA)--Another version of the scene for when Han Solo is released from his carbonite prison. The beginning is the same right up until Jabba appears. The Jabba theme section is different from its original counterpart. This version was used for the radio adaptation of Jedi. 5. HAN SOLO RETURNS (film version) (on the RCA)--Sections of the actual film version of the cue have been scattered on the RCA's Disc 1. The film version starts out the same as its two counterparts until Bousch reveals its mask. The section from where Leia is revealed until the curtain is open to reveal Jabba can be found at the 8:40 to 9:01 mark of the RCA's Track 11 ("Land Of The Ewoks"). The end section (where Han and Leia are led away by Jabba's goons) can be found at the 1:27 to 2:05 mark of the RCA's Track 6 ("Luke Confronts Jabba"). This will lead to tracked music from the tail ends of "Final Duel" and "Fight In The Dungeon". 6. THE RETURN OF THE JEDI (film version) (Side 2, Track 5, OLP; Side 1, Track 5, RCAG; Disc 3, Track 5, FOXB; Disc 1, second part of Track 7, RCA)--The version of the Sail Barge battle cue as heard in the film forsakes originality (as in the first recorded version) and uses some of the trilogy's major themes ("Luke's Theme", "Rebel Fanfare", "Ben's Death", "TIE Fighter Attack", "X Wings Draw Fire") as its basis. The beginning, middle, and end sections are essentially the same. The RCA was re-titled "Sail Barge Assault". 7. THE EMPEROR ARRIVES (first section, film version) (Disc 2, first part of Track 6, RCA)--This is an edited version of the cue's opening section as actually heard in the film. This is the part that was re-scored when the Emperor's shuttle arrives at the Death Star. This can be heard at the 0:00 to :46 mark of the RCA's Disc 2, Track 6 ("The Lightsaber"). 8. THE EWOK BATTLE (six-second bridge) (remains unreleased)--This passage can be heard in the actual film just as the first AT-AT explodes and the Ewoks cheer for joy. This has never been released in any format. 9. DARTH VADER'S DEATH (introduction-section 1, film version) (Side 2, first part of Track 5, VAR; Disc 3, first part of Track 16, FOXB; Disc 2, second part of Track 8, RCA)--Re-recorded 15-second introduction to the cue for the title scene as it was actually heard in the film. The VAR rendition runs a bit slower in pace (I prefer the one in the film). 10 LEIA BREAKS THE NEWS (alternate) (Disc 4, first part of Track 20, FOXB)--Re-recording of the cue (ultimately never used in the film) where Leia and Han resolve their relationship while revealing Luke's relationship to Leia. Generally the same arrangement right up until Han and Leia start to kiss. Then we get a fast version of the "Han and Leia" theme, followed by a reprise of the Ewok parade. The final chord though, is along the same lines as its actual film counterpart. 11. FUNERAL PYRE FOR A JEDI (film version) (Disc 4, second part of Track 20, FOXB; Disc 2, third part of Track 9, RCA)--The scene where Luke cremates his father, Darth Vader, was re-scored for the final film. This is a more softer variation on "Ben's Theme" rather than the more majestic one heard in the original recorded cue. On the RCA, for some strange reason, this was coupled with the original version and re-titled "Light Of The Force". 12. EWOK CELEBRATION (alternate film version mix) (remains unavailable)--This is the same film version of the climactic celebration scene, only without orchestration. This version was used in the Jedi radio adaptation, which is itself available on CD. 13. EWOK CELEBRATION (album version) (Side 2, first part of Track 6, OLP; Disc 3, first part of Track 19, FOXB)--Different mix of the celebratory music from the end of the film, with the Ewoks' voices more present than the straightforward chorus heard in the actual film, but the ending is basically the same (Ewok lyrics crossfading into English lyrics). Source: http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Original-Triogy-Soundtrack-4-CD-set/id/9971 Jurassic Park (1993) 1. INCIDENT AT ISLA NUBAR (Jurassic Park: 20th Anniversary, Track 3 [2013, Geffen Records])--A different take has been used for replacing the very end "The Falling Car" cue (at the end of "Incident At Isla Nublar" in this release) to correct a loud stage noise.
  7. As an archivist who have documented some discographies on the web (on Wikipedia and on my own websites), I consider that some Labels (like Fresh Sound Records, to name one), who put 2 LP by two different artists on 1 CD, are doing a great mistake. Why they do that? To boost the sales of a lesser known artist, using the fame of another? To group the albums under a theme or a genre? Just because they don't have a long term vision in the reissue plan of their stuff... Why??? Understand me, to put these CD on a discography is... tricky. Do we have to count them as Reissues... Collaborations? Well, that's not what they really are, technically they are "compilations" (and sometimes they add BONUS tracks on these CD)... Do we have to regroup them in a "Various Artist Compilations" Section instead? I just ask, what to do whith these U.F.O's? Take the example of a record store (even if I know they're facing the threat of extinction...). In which section we put those CDs? In the "A" artist section, in the "B" artist section... in both? In a "Various" section? Do you understand that's it's a non sense to do that? Dear Labels, stop doing that. Mercy!

  8. This morning I listened to a 2014 recording by the BBC Concert Orchestra on Spotify. I don't think it correspond to a physical album. The playing is good, but it contains a way too much echo for me, but the thing is they recorded the End Titles from The Empire Strikes Back. Well, I think it's worth of mention. Except the Gerhardt version, I don't remember any other re-recording of this piece. Please feel free to share your own discoveries!
  9. Here is a new thread especially to discuss the John Williams Discography. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Williams_discography Created on Wikipedia by myself in 2012, it's the most complete JW discography that can be actually found. It includes all the works performed by John Williams, as a performer and a conductor. It also features a section dedicated to his discography as a composer, which features many compositions which he himself did not record. Please help me to keep it up to date! ___ With a little advance, here's a new update in the "Compilation / Reissue albums" section: 2015 A.I. Artificial Intelligence [Expanded Archival Collection] La-La Land Records 3 CD-set, includes previously unreleased material. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Williams_discography#Compilation_.2F_Reissue_albums

  14. I just re-discovered this wonderful track on the Boston Pops album "On stage" directed dy JW. I really love it! Slaughter on Tenth Avenue is a ballet with music by Richard Rodgers and choreography by George Balanchine. It occurs near the end of Rodgers and Hart's 1936 Broadway musical comedy On Your Toes. Slaughter is the story of a hoofer who falls in love with a dance hall girl who is then shot and killed by her jealous boyfriend. The hoofer then shoots the boyfriend.Source: Wikipedia

  16. Here are all the collaborative albums of John Williams where he's credited as conductor, as well as the albums where he appears as a "guest star" with other conductors. I bet none of us really listened to all these albums! But among those you know, which ones are your favourites? NOTE: This list doesn't include compilations, unless they are the only source. 1957 Yvonne De Carlo Sings 1957 Porgy & Bess 1960 Pam Garner Sings Ballads for Broken Hearts 1960 James Darren Sings Songs from His Films & More 1961 Vic Damone - Young and Lively 1961 Frankie Laine - Hell Bent for Leather! 1961 Frankie Laine - Deuces Wild 1962 Frankie Laine - Call of the Wild 1962 Frankie Laine - Wanderlust 1962 Mahalia Jackson - Everytime I Feel the Spirit 1962 Mahalia Jackson - I Believe 1962 Mahalia Jackson - Great Songs of Love and Faith 1962 Mahalia Jackson - Songs for Christmas: Silent Night 1962 Johhny Desmond - So Nice! 1963 André Previn in Hollywood 1964 Shelly Manne - My Fair Lady 1964 André Previn - Sound Stage! 1965 Shelly Manne - That's Gershwin 1982 Luciano Pavarotti - Yes, Giorgio ("If We Were in Love" conducted by John Williams) 1984 The Official Music of the 1984 Games 1984 Jessye Norman - With a Song in My Heart 1988 1988 Summer Olympics Album 1992 Jessye Norman - Lucky to Be Me 1996 Land of the Giants 1997 Itzhak Perlman - Cinema Serenade 1997 Lost in Space, Vol. 2 [Original Television Soundtrack] 1997 The Time Tunnel 1998 Joshua Bell - Gershwin Fantasy 1999 Itzhak Perlman - Cinema Serenade 2: The Golden Age 2000 Lost in Space, Vol. 3 [Original Television Soundtrack] 2000 Don't Make Waves / Penelope (Penelope's music Composed and Conducted by John Williams) 2001 Classic Yo-Yo (American Collection Theme composed and directed by John Williams) 2002 Yo-Yo Ma Plays the Music of John Williams 2004 Penelope / Bachelor in Paradise (Penelope's music Composed and Conducted by John Williams, Previously unreleased original score) 2005 Lost in Space 40th Anniversary Edition 2005 Jericho / The Ghostbreaker (The Ghostbreaker's music Composed and Conducted by John Williams) 2006 Amazing Stories - Anthology 1 (Some tracks composed & conducted by John Williams) 2006 Amazing Stories - Anthology 2 (Some tracks composed & conducted by John Williams) 2007 Amazing Stories - Anthology 3 (Some tracks composed & conducted by John Williams) 2008 Superman: The Music 2009 Yo-Yo Ma - 30 Years Outside the Box (Memoirs of a Geisha Suite recorded live in 2008, with Yo-Yo Ma and The Chicago Symphony Orchestra conducted by John Williams) 2010 TV Omnibus: Volume One (1962-1976) (Contains the previously unreleased score from The Bronze Locust (1963), Music Composed and Conducted by Johnny Williams) 2011 Nightwatch / Killer by Night (Nighwatch's music Composed and Conducted by John Williams; Previously unreleased score) 2013 We'll Paint You a Rainbow ("Somewhere Over the Rainbow" conducted by John Williams) 2014 The Glenn Dicterow Collection ("Schindler's List: Main Theme" composed and conducted by John Williams) PS: If you want my opinion, yes, CDs that merge two different scores by two different conductors are a total aberration.
  17. It is perhaps still too early to talk about this, but it must be done sooner or later, I mean to group all John Williams albums together in a coffret. For my part, I find that it would be interesting to do a Television and Film music coffret with the replica of all the original albums, all pre-digital tracks remastered from the original Master analog tapes. Any other ideas? Here is my suggestion for a first coffret of 50 CD, covering the 1960-1992 era. John Williams The Original Soundtracks Anthology (1960-1992) 50 CD CD1-1960 Checkmate CD2-1962 Diamond Head CD3-1966 How to Steal a Million CD4-1966 Not With My Wife, You Don't CD5-1966 Penelope CD6-1967 Fitzwilly CD7-1968 Heidi CD8-1968 Valley of the Dolls CD9-1969 Goodbye, Mr. Chips CD10-1969 The Reivers CD11-1971 Fiddler on the Roof CD12-1971 Jane Eyre CD13-1972 Images CD14-1973 Cinderella Liberty CD15-1973 The Cowboys CD16-1973 Tom Sawyer CD17-1974 Earthquake CD18-1975 The Eiger Sanction CD19-1975 Jaws CD20-1975 The Towering Inferno CD21-1976 The Missouri Breaks CD22-1977 Star Wars CD23-1977 Close Encounters of the Third Kind CD24-1978 Jaws 2 CD25-1978 Superman: The Movie CD26-1978 The Fury CD27-1979 1941 CD28-1979 Dracula CD29-1980 The Empire Strikes Back CD30-1981 Raiders of the Lost Ark CD31-1982 E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial CD32-1982 Monsignor CD33-1983 Return of the Jedi CD34-1984 The River CD35-1984 Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom CD36-1986 SpaceCamp CD37-1987 The Witches of Eastwick CD38-1987 Empire of the Sun CD39-1988 The Accidental Tourist CD40-1989 Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade CD41-1989 Born on the Fourth of July CD42-1990 Always CD43-1990 Stanley & Iris CD44-1990 Presumed Innocent CD45-1990 Home Alone CD46-1991 Hook CD47-1992 JFK CD48-1992 Far and Away CD49-1992 Home Alone 2 – Lost in New York CD50 +Singles and rarities: - Midway March - The Men Of The Yorktown March - If We Were in Love (by Luciano Pavarotti) - If We Were in Love (Instrumental) ... ___ A second coffret covering the 1993-20.. era, would contain 35 CD for now: John Williams The Original Soundtracks Anthology (1993-20..)
