    finalscore got a reaction from Will in John Williams' workout tracks   
    Being in self-isolation and having to do therapeutic exercises due to a medical condition from 8 months ago, I find the following cues by the Maestro helping to make these exercises easy to get through.
     
    Which of his cues would you play during your workout/therapy? I'm trying to limit it to 10 tracks.
     
    THE IMPERIAL MARCH - TESB
    ONE BARREL CHASE - JAWS
    SUPERMAN MARCH - STM
    TO THORNWOOD - JANE EYRE
    HERE THEY COME! - SW ANH
    TO SCARBOROUGH - DRACULA
    RAIDERS MARCH - ROTA
    MARCH FROM"1941"
    MAN TITLES - TOWERING INFERNO
    ATTACK ON THE WATER SKIER - JAWS2

    I don't know if this post already exists, but I thought why not create a post regarding Maestro Williams' concert pieces written for his films that you never tire of hearing.
    So, here we go:
     
     1. "The Imperial March (Darth Vader's Theme" from "The Empire Strikes Back"
     2. "Out To Sea" from "JAWS"
     3. "Star Wars" Main Theme (includes End Titles)
     4. "March From Superman - The Movie"
     5. "Theme From Catch Me If You Can"
     6. "Raiders March" from "Raiders Of The Lost Ark"
     7. "The Dance Of The Witches" from "Witches Of Eastwick"
     8. "Overture to The Cowboys"
     9.  "Men Of The Yorktown March" from "Midway"
    10. "Hedwig's Theme" from "Harry Potter Films"

    finalscore got a reaction from Biodome in Emperor's Theme   
    One of my favorite themes composed for the Star Wars series. I have pieced together moments of the theme from Return of the Jedi to create this "concert" version. Also included is a piece of music from one of the best scenes in the entire canon, at one time one of the most requested "unreleased" cues.
    Enjoy.

    finalscore got a reaction from mbrannon47 in Rey's Theme flute opening—a Beastie Boys reference?   
    I've posted elsewhere my feelings about the beginning of Rey's theme. It reminds me of the leitmotif of Ennio Morricone's A Fistful of Dollars for the Clint Eastwood character "The Man With No Name" when he would appear on the scene.

    finalscore got a reaction from Cerebral Cortex in Thomas Newman's SPECTRE   
    After seeing SPECTRE again today I was able to put together a partial cue of the copter sequence in the beginning of the film. It was culled together from Grand Bazaar from SKyfall and Tempus Fugit from SPECTRE. There are several bars missing from the track but I think this will give you a facsimilie of the cue as heard in the film.
    Also the scene where Bond is chasing Sciara in the Day Of The Dead parade is tracked with the first 35 seconds of Backfire from SPECTRE.
