Just got the soundtrack and the new opening theme sounds better than ever. So glad they re-recorded this. AWESOME. You can really tell a difference between this and the one that's 20 years old.

Sounds too clean. I don't know how to describe it. It's been altered some what. The beginning has some background instruments that aren't as vivid as before.
I'm not sure this is a case where new is better. [Reply]

Eh, whatever. Listen to the old one if you like. I like this one as it was produced with superior technology. A good take on an old classic.
By the way, the second track "Call of the Crystal Skull," is absolutely amazing. John Williams at his finest. [Reply]

Still sounds good....but your right.
Sounds like Mr. Williams pulled a George Lucas( ala the original Star Wars) and tinkered a little too much with a good thing.
I wont complain too much. Its great to hear it again. [Reply]

can you put that up so I can get a listen. It's not on itunes so I can't preview.
On another note, I'd have to say my favorite Williams' scores have been:
1) Imperial March
2) Raiders Theme
3) ET Theme
4) Superman Theme
And for some reason on a different level, not necessarily favorite but I don't know what to call it:
Schindler's List Theme.
And for overall scores, I think Harry Potter showed his most complete work. [Reply]

Man, I'd put the throne room and end credits for SWIV above all of them, so triumphant and edifying. I even teared up a little when Family Guy parodied/recreated it. [Reply]

3) Raiders Theme
4) Jaws
5) Close Encounters of the Third Kind [Reply]

For whatever reason, Jaws and his score, never did much for me. I always thought they were lame. :-) [Reply]
