Music From Star Wars: Return of the Jedi

I really love this soundtrack! I can listen to the "Victory Celebration" track for hours. The only drawback is the grating "Jedi Rocks"...I hated it in the movie, and I hate it even more on the CD. At least in the movie it had special effects to make it bearable. However, the rest of the soundtrack more than makes up for this one track. I especially like the tracks with the Emperor's theme in them. Very haunting.

RotJ is definitely the best soundtrack of the Star Wars Trilogy, and one of Williams' best ever. This is basically a compillation of the best themes from the previous films and then some new ones as well (The Emperor's Theme with it's impressive male chorus comes to mind). I can't even begin to touch on the best tracks because there are so many. I must mention however, that the scene where Darth Vader dies is just one of many examples of Williams' brilliance. The music is simply the theme of the Imperial March, but played in an incredible bittersweet way.

In short, if you can only buy one of the trilogy's sountracks, make it this one.

John Williams delivers another excellent rendition of Star Wars music. It's Emperor's Theme is haunting and beautiful at the same time. Also, the music is darker (Jabba's Palace scenes) to show the conflict in the characters, and he achieves their feelings very well. This is a must buy for any Star Wars fan. Get it!
