Even if Kennedy knew that The Force Theme was also Ben's Theme in the original SW, I don't think she would want to contradict what Williams himself repeatedly said in recent interviews. Same with the "first love theme" thing for Ep.2. Williams' word shall remain sacred to those who hire him!

Here's a better sounding version of the full concert:

Never read or heard anyone call this character 'Obi' before.

I stand corrected.

It's from Dudamel's concerts in LA in January 2019

This looks like an amazing release. One of Jarre's best scores from a brilliant period in his career, coupled with the fantastic original album rerecording. A perfect companion to his masterpiece Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome from the following year.

One of my favorite films from this century. Nice reminder that I should watch it again soon!

When exactly did it die?

Here's what Jon Burlingame wrote in yesterday's Variety article: "Is also working" = "Has already started"?

Uncompressed digital files for me, and vinyl for the artwork and physical experience ("reinvented" editions excluded). CDs look and feel cheap. And I also skip meat, but for entirely different reasons.

No, it hasn't.

Yeah the old title was just a series of interjections and yeah it was me who changed it!

Thank you for this, Maurizio, it was great!
