Great selection - musical problems Jul 24, 2009
This is a great collection of John Williams music. I love that it has the suite arrangements on a lot of the music so that you get the best themes from the movies in a shorter amount of time. It has most everything I've heard of associated with John Williams up to its time. However, the performances of the music are not always that great. The orchestra sounds like it just wasn't up to scratch to play a lot of this music by the time they recorded. So, buying this CD is kind of give-and-take: you get a great selection of music, some of which is played at a sub-par level.

This is NOT soundtrack music as advertized! Apr 05, 2009
The music on this album is a mixture of re-recordings that possibly are from the original musical scores of their respective movies, but the music most definitely is NOT the soundtrack music of the respective movies as Amazon advertises. There can be one and only one musical soundtrack for a movie and the music from this album is admittedly re-recordings. If you want to buy the original soundtrack music for each of the described movies, this album does not have any of it. Come on Amazon, get your act together!

A most complete collection Jul 28, 2008
For those of us that have collected soundtracks for many years and specially John Williams' music, it might seem a little redundant to buy this four disc compliation of his music that has every single track that I am sure every collector owns at least once.
However once you start listening to the pieces you start to notice the little differences in their performance from the original versions.
There are subtle changes in rythm and tempo and even different instruments play certain parts.
These nuances make this redition of Willams' music a most enjoyable one.

Best from the best... Jun 01, 2008
He's the best....the music of John Williams all in one awesome set...always amazed at the amount of work from this talent.

I love it Mar 05, 2008
If you love john williams like I do, well then you will love this product.
