Thor 7,503 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Perhaps. Many years ago, he asked me to make some CD-Rs of film music that he could play in his car, and the only directive that I got was that it needed to be slow and relaxing; nothing upbeat and bombastic (a sentiment I share with him these days). I cannot remember what I chose, but he liked them. He never 'converted' to film music, but he's been positive to a great deal I've played him over the years. Vice versa, I would never have been interested in film music if it hadn't been for my dad and his records and cassettes that I inherited; with various forms of conceptual instrumental music (but that's a different story).

Brundlefly 2,385 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 My family and friends all love John Williams, but they don't normally listen to his music without me. Funny thing is... they all adore Jerry Goldsmith much more. They already did, when I still prefered Williams over him. Jurassic Shark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oomoog the Ecstatic 314 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I have a relative who asks me to listen to Erik Satie every time I see them. Why would I want to listen to Erik Satie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Illustrious Jerry 3,356 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Maybe because he wrote some splendid gymnopedies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
