Title: No surprises here...
Product review: Williams has been away from the Star Wars universe for awhile, and it shows by (except for the main titles) avoidance of redundancy. Don't get me wrong, there's a certain style to Star Wars soundtrack music and it's here. But two decades have leached away any tendency towards recycling that composers of series film music tend to have when the flicks follow one another fairly closely. The "Augie's" march theme at the end is great--I was afraid that this example of music "performed" by onscreen characters was going to be a "Lapti Nek" or "Cantina Band" retread. There are only two examples of soundtrack music that I can enjoy as music in their own right--the other is John Barry's "James Bond" material. Owners of Williams' sountracks to the original trilogy won't be disappointed here.
