Over the following weeks I will be listing records from one such collection. Collected mostly during the 1960’s and 70’s this set of records have been well preserved and cared for some dating back to over 50 years old!! Our regular customers will be aware that if we do grade a record at Near Mint expect it to have only been played a handful of times at most and to sound superb. We hope you enjoy the records we will be offering as much as we have in presenting them to you.
Lucas felt the futuristic Star Wars should not have a futuristic soundtrack. Instead, he wanted something "nineteenth century" as a foil to the strange visual images. This was a stroke of genius. Lucas suggested using some existing music for parts of the film, as Stanley Kubrick had done in 2001, but Williams was against this. Williams felt the film should have thematic unity and wanted to create a theme for each character and develop it as the film progressed, something that is impossible with pre-composed music. Although he read the script in 1975, Williams did not begin to compose until early 1977, when he saw a cut of the film. Two months later, the score was finished. It was the first film score for which Williams used a symphony orchestra.
