EXTD=(2004 ''Trilogy'' Compilation)Given that it's largely credited with reinventing Hollywood--or at least fostering its overweening box office expectations--it's hard to imagine that the genesis of George Lucas' sprawling, multi-billion dollar Star War
EXTD=sfranchise was once considered a risky studio proposition at best. But Lucas himself has wisely singled out the robust, retro-romantic music of composer John Williams as the unlikely artistic linchpin that holds all of the saga's disparate dramatic,

EXTD=hanged is the enduring appeal of John Williams' classic scores for the 1977-83 trio of films that pitted Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo, and Obi-Wan Kenobi against the forcesof the evil Empire and the Jedi-turned-Sith Lord, Darth Vader. To 
EXTD=mark the release of the 2004 DVD set, Sony Classical has revamped and reissued the 1997 Special Edition soundtracks and created a beautiful box set that complements the packaging of the Widescreen Edition DVDs. In an elegant silver and black slipcov

EXTD=the London Symphony Orchestra. With 74 tracks and over six hours of music, this six-CDset is arguably the most complete collection of original soundtrack material yet released. If you own the 1997 RCA Victor Special Edition soundtracks, however, the
EXTD=re is no new unreleased material here. Indeed, track sequences and titles are identical, andthere are no detailed program notes. Still, the box set is reasonably priced; it's actually cheaper than buying each soundtrack album separately, so if your

EXTD=Peng (Singapore)This reissue of the original Star Wars Trilogy soundtracks was released to coincidewith the DVD debut of the original films. However, there is really little to gain in this reissue over the RCA special edition releases. Of course, th
EXTD=e music is presented with all the integrityit needs, with every note of the score in a seamless chronological presentation, so that's one basic requirement cleared for thisreissue. Plus, it has been remastered with Sony DSD technology, which greatly
EXTD= improves the sound. So what's wrong? Well, I'm surethat many collectors miss the in-depth booklets from the 1997 reissues with a comprehensive and lucid soundtrack annotation and full-colour photo stills from the three films. This would mean thatth
EXTD=ose who listen to the music might not be able to follow what happens. At least the music is presented in chronological order, which is a tremendous asset. In its place we get a fold-out posterfor a CD insert, which is in itself as useless as the 3-D
EXTD= covers. Also, the Enhanced CD features are perhaps junk, because the screensavers and book covers are not entirely necessary on soundtrack reissues. They are merely a marketing gimmick so that fans canspend more money, despite the fan requests. But
EXTD= even though these two gripes are subjective, this can't stop many fans from enjoying the music in all its glory and integrity. And perhaps, with the release of Revenge of the Sith, Sony, George Lucas and John Williams might allow the entire unedite

EXTD=Star Wars Trilogy Box Set (2004.) A Boxset combining the soundtracks of the classic Star Wars Trilogy.In 1977, George Lucas took the world by storm with A New Hope, the first film in the Star Wars series. The film became known as a science fiction m

EXTD=d an excellent musical score, composed by John Williams. When John Williams does the score for a movie, he very rarelyfails to please with his compositions. Read on for my review of the box set, which combines the classic trilogy soundtracks. To put
EXTD= it in the simplest terms possible, if you're a fan of the Star Wars movies, the soundtracks are an essential purchase. Whenthe soundtracks were rereleased on CD in 1997 and again in 2004,the tracklists were upgraded over the original vinyl versions
EXTD=. Each of the soundtracks from the classic trilogy (A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, Return Of The Jedi) is now a dual-disc set, which features every piece of music from the entire film it represents, from start to finish. Hell, they've even got
EXTD= the TwentiethCentury Fox Fanfare intro! Each soundtrack has the complete musical score from its respective film, in the order each piece appeared in the film. Furthermore, each soundtrack adds an alternate version bonus track. Even further adding t
EXTD=o the greatness is that many of the pieces of music are the full-length complete versions.Because of this, you get the complete piece of music, meaning you'll even hear portions of some pieces that didn't even appear inthe films (because the version
EXTD=s in the films were cut short in some cases.) My lone complaint is that some songs that should havebeen divided into separate tracks weren't (for instance, on eachsoundtrack, the opening theme fades right into the first uniquepiece of music to each 
EXTD=film, and it's ALL ONE TRACK, meaning youcan't skip right past the inro to the first unique piece of music. On the flip side, the end credits are directly connected to theLAST unique piece of music from each film, meaning you can't skip directly to 
EXTD=the end credit theme (and this is sure to disappoint some listeners.)) Despite that little flaw, these are still great soundtracks. Every piece of music on here is excellent, proving John Williams to be one of the greatest composers who ever lived. 
EXTD=The soundtracks not only show off his musical ability, but also his diversity musically. To put it simply, if you liked the movies, the soundtracks are an essential buy. The soundtracks got rereleased in 2004, obviously to cash in on the rerelease o
EXTD=f the classic trilogy of films on DVD. In addition to remastering thesound and revamping the cover art of the soundtrack CDs, the record company gives this alternative option - the box set of all three soundtracks from the classic trilogy. If you pu
EXTD=rchase the boxset, you'll save a few bucks, so I recommend getting it rather than buying them separately. If you liked the classic Star Wars Trilogy (and honestly, who didn't?), the soundtracks are well worth adding to your CD collection. Whenever J
EXTD=ohn Williams does the music for a film, his score NEVER fails to please - and his abilities aren't limited to just the Star Wars series. I also strongly recommend the soundtracks to any other films he has scored. For all you classic Star Wars fans -
