favorite film scores
The very first film soundtrack I ever bought was "Jaws" on LP in 1975. I had seen the movie that summer, and although the music wasn't being played on the radio so I wasn't familiar with it beforehand, the one time I saw the film the music really impressed me. I was 14 at the time. Some of the music still gives me chills. The composer was John Williams, of course, and I think it might have been his first really well known theme music.
The soundtrack I've played the most is probably James Horner's "Apollo 13" from 1995. I own it on cassette for the car, the regular CD and the gold CD with the dialogue. This is my all-time favorite movie and I am glad to hear the main theme occasionally utilized in other programs.
