For better or worse, John Williams has completely reshaped the art of the soundtrack. His scores for Star Wars, E.T., and Jaws are simply unforgettable, and his knack for tugging at our heartstrings is uncanny. John Williams: Greatest Hits 1969-1999 collects 30 years of the composer's best-loved themes into one double-CD package. You'll find all the soundtrack moments you'd expect from Indiana Jones, Close Encounters, and Schindler's List, along with a few surprises (The Reivers Americana-filled main theme and Williams's 1984 Olympic theme, for starters). Most of the earlier works have been digitally rerecorded by Williams, so while you may not get the original recording of these works here, nothing shows its age. And although we really do get only his "greatest hits" (the longest track is the nearly 10-minute-long Close Encounters theme), most of these soundtracks can be purchased in their entirety for the true aficionado. John Williams may be an acquired taste, but this set proves why--year after year--he scores some of the most successful films Hollywood can produce. --Jason Verlinde

This John Williams collection brings back memories of your favorite movies. He is no doubt the best composer hollyhood has ever seen and possibly the best of any composer working today. His music amplifies all the action taking place on the screen. This is a must have for the motion picture devotee.

This CD has all the hits (well almost all of 'em) that you associate with John Williams. It is a wonderful compilation. And most are performed by the London Symphony Orchestra.

I have loved John Williams' music for years. So, when I couldn't get my son to burn a CD of it, I turned to Amazon.com, and received just what I wanted!! I play it in the car every chance I get.
Thank you!

It took me being an idiot, and selling this CD some years ago, and then reclaiming it again just tonight in order to realize what a beautiful collection of music this really is. Seriously, this set shows off the amazing scope and depth that John Williams has, while it doesn't have every last one of his amazing compositions, it still shows what a fine composer Mr. Williams really is.
I will start off by stating that I started yearning for the set again after I saw a preview of E.T. being ... Read More

This double disk album represents the greatest music of modern cinema. John Williams is an absolute genius and you can literally see the movies run before your eyes while listening to the soundtracks. All of his greatest work up to 1999 is on this album, with popular themes like Star Wars or Jurassic Park and less known pieces like Summon the Heroes. For lovers of movie themes, this is the best and most complete album I've listened to. It is also played by amazing orchestras like London Symphony and Boston ... Read More
