Suite from Jaws
Deluxe Score
By John Williams

I have to agree with another person who submitted a review, that this publication is a stinker. Sure, it has the famous main theme, but that's all that it's worth as far i'm concerned. The other two pieces 'Out To Sea', and 'The shark Cage fuge' are...

trite and lazy additions to what could have been a fantastic score to an oscar winning soundtrack. I would so much more have like to have seen (again, i'm agreeing with the other reviewer before me) the 'Montage' scene, and 'Man Against Beast', which is honestly the best action I've ever heard from John Williams. Plus, it isn't the cheapest Sign.Ed out there, with the raised price of US$60. Such a shame. I'm giving it 3 stars, only because the shark theme is note for note to a good recording I have, and I enjoy it solely for that.

The theme is the concert version and though iconic, seems more of an intro to a suite that requires some 'meat' to it. Unfortunately, the second section is sadly lacking by being two heavily truncated sections of the score. There are sections that would have been better here such as...

the 'Man Against Beast' and the 'Montage' (arrival of the vacationers) music.
