Fresh Prince of Bel-air

Fast became a modern classic by the Master Quincy Jones Keila!

Go deeper into this great composer's past work, your ears'll love you for it.

But a fast tid-bit.  Quincy Jones when to junior high school with Jimi Hendrix and Bruce Lee!

Can anyone here name any other composers who's music has meant as much to modern television and movies along with these legends?

If you can, add them to this list:

John Williams

Irving Berlin

Quincy Jones

Danny Elfman

Henry Mancini

Basil Poledouris

Dominic Frontiere

(Not in any order of importance or awards, this is just a humble opinion)

Movie-wise I love the theme from Star Wars. Gives me goosebumps


Well it's no wonder MouseGoddess.  John Williams has been composing most music associated with our life time more than anyone.

Spanning from the 50's to today with new realease already for 2010 check out his list of film scores, it'll dawn on you that there aren't too many songs you've heard by him that doesn't give you chills!

 

John Williams' Film Scores

 


   

Cool link! I had the soundtrack of "Days of Wine and Roses" when I was little, but didn't remember who composed it. I was also always partial to the music from "Fidler on the Roof", another of his compositions, as I just found out from your link. Lots of interesting info there. Thanks!
