Last Night I dreamed about John Williams...
bigjimwilson replied to GerateWohl's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
I guess if there was ever a place in the world we could confess to dreaming about John, it's this forum I once had a dream where I and a few friends were invited into a room where there might be "someone of great interest to you," so we went in, and it was John's piano room. He was super welcoming, spoke to us all in a really relaxed way. He played a few tunes for us that he was working on (hah! My brain has the audacity to try and come up with new williams material in my sleep!) and we were flicking through his leather bound scores. I suggested some re-recordings of older scores should happen and he said he thought that was a great idea. Then, he said... "oh, there are some drinks over there, please... help yourselves." He sat down on the sofa, kicked off his slippers and I went over to get a drink. All he had was warm cans of shitty lager. And I thought to myself... "oh my god, John drinks Fosters?!?!" Woke up devastated. How could you do me like that John. Unbelievable. -

That Mancini thought has got me all excited. First Pink Panther?.... Have they found it? Or A Shot In The Dark. Man, that would be amazing. A quote from Johnny T about Hank would be very appropriate indeed. It would make sense if that were to happen over in Quartet country following the last boxset. Chris Malone doesn't exactly need Mike to hold his hand on something like that though... so who knows. -
SUPERMAN IV: THE QUEST FOR PEACE - 2018 2-CD La-La Land Records edition
bigjimwilson replied to Jay's topic in JOHN WILLIAMS
A friend just sent me the main titles.... wow. I can see why they headed back to the UK! That's really awful. And a big shame if this is how the 4K disc is going to sound. -
ahh ok. Yeah, thinking about it, I’m fairly sure we had the same TV program of it on UK tv last Christmas. Fools! 😂 Leia definitely on the Blu-ray. I have no idea why, but I haven’t devoured and obsessed quite so much over the Berlin Blu-ray as much as the Vienna. But I watched it this Christmas Eve and it’s so good!!

That shot of him lifting his hands at the end is fantastic! As if to say “and that’s how I’m still smashing it out 48 years later” 😄

We hugged! 😂 I needed one in that moment! Really great to talk with you. Sorry we didn’t manage to catch up after. Brilliant evening. Excellent strong Negronis 😄
