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 VerlindeCustomer Reviews:
A Great Compilation of Williams' Best Scores.......2007-07-26
The sound quality is excellent and I've been extremely pleased with the product.
Bottom Line: Great CD with unforgettable hits. Buy it today if you're interested in it.
Beethoven is an insect compaired to this titian of composition........2007-07-18
Once I started paying attention to the music and identifying different pieces that I enjoyed from different movies, I was suprized to realize that John Williams had composed many, many of them.
This CD contains possibably the greatest most timeless music I have heard. Sure, you, like my classical music loving boss, have probably already written off my opinion as foolish or ignorant. Honestly, I don't care.
I like Mozart, Bach and the rest, and they have their place, but their music doesn't move through me like Williams. While this collection is far from a box set of his work, all the most popular pieces are there: Raders March (Indiana Jones), Star Wars, Superman, Empire March (Darth Vader). None of the operas or preludes the other guys made up generate the experience I get from listening to the opening stanza of Superman.
While it is very hard to sing along to these pieces, if you have an office as I do, it makes great background music. Everyone who comes in is pleasently caught off guard and I enjoy watching them trying to place the various songs that are playing.
Even if you disagree that Williams is better than Wagner or Debussy, if you enjoy his music, you will love this CD. "These are the droids you are looking for."
An excellent survey of this great film composer's music.......2007-06-15
Williams not only has the talent to write memorable melodies but to expertly interpolate themes from the story into his scores, for example the drum rolls in "JFK" evoking the president's funeral procession and the mournful bugle calls in "Born on the Fourth of July".
Williams also employs a variety of styles, but never gratuitously, always to the service of the film. His "Jaws" theme is as legendary as the violin shrieks from Bernard Herrman's famous score for "Psycho".
The performances are excellent - only the "Born on the Fourth of July" performance exposes some thinness in the string section of the Boston Pops Orchestra.
There is much to enjoy here for film and music lovers alike.
It's my second copy!.......2007-03-09
I could listen to it a 100's and never get tired!.......2007-02-17

Depending on where you stand, this double-disc set is either where too much becomes too much, or just right. While most of Karen Carpenter's best is available on the more economical Singles 1969-1973, fans aren't likely to turn up their noses at the post-'73 hits that round out Yesterday. "All You Get from Love Is a Love Song" is nearly as bitter as the eternal "Goodbye to Love," while "Only Yesterday" is the best of their happy songs. And something we've always wondered: whose idea was it for them to cover Klaatu's "Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft"? --Rickey WrightCustomer Reviews:
Super colection of hits.......2006-03-15
Their Blue Album.......2006-02-28
This is the same idea, but with music of The Carpenters and it is also a great set. While fans will debate about some of the music missing on this 2 cd set, it contains most of their major hit's from the Billboard Hot 100 charts.
Carpenters in one true collection.......2005-03-13
Also the jewel box is a folding one. From outside it looks like any other CD box and seems to be holding only one CD. But inside there is a folding plate with two CDs on its both sides. This saves space and helps you put it in you CD rack with all other CDs.
In one word if you want to listen to Carpenters in one album, maybe this is one of the best CDs.
Sing!.......2004-01-16

Customer Reviews:
Apparently 1969 was a great year for hits (with parentheses).......2004-02-10
In terms of signature songs by other artists you have "It's Your Thing" by the Isley Brothers and Dusty Springfield's "Son of a Preacher Man." You will not find the big hits by the biggest groups, but decent songs by the next tier of groups, with "These Eyes" by the Guess Who, "One" by Three Dog Night, and "Crystal Blue Persuasion" by Tommy James & The Shondells. The problem would be that you probably have all of those, so your willingness to pick up this CD is going to be based on whether you want to add the other hits by the Friends of Distinction, Harry Nilsson, and Spiral Starecase. In the one hit wonder category there are two notable tracks with "Worst That Could Happen" by Brooklyn Bridge and "Get Together" by the Youngbloods.
Those last two might be the ones that tip the scales in this CD's favor because the only serious complaint here would be that you already have most of the songs. If you do not, this one could certainly fill a couple of holes in your music library.
