  1. KotCS gave us arguably the finest lemur music of Williams's career.
  2. I'm glad we've put those primitive years behind us.
  3. Harald Kloser Thomas Wanker Trevor Rabin Randy Edelman Nick Glennie-Smith Klaus Badelt Mark Mothersbaugh Mark Mancina Aaron Zigman

  15. How has John Williams "in a fundamental way advanced the film art"?
  16. A fair question. I usually don't partly because I'm lazy and partly because my impressions tend to be on the vague side anyway, but I'll keep this in mind.
