    Thanks so much for this, Erik! You do a great show! Please don’t take this as a criticism, but I was just wondering if would be fun to bounce back & forth between time periods when doing shows like this (not that you didn’t consider it when you embarked on this huge undertaking). But hey, don’t get me wrong; I love what you do!

    All my best.

      So you mean presenting something like Schindler’s List and then play Empire of the Sun and then jump to War Horse? I actually never considered that as I felt a more chronological order would allow the listener to experience the progression in Williams music (themes and style) throughout the years. Thanks for your feedback!

    Great! In show 5 I discovered for me “A.I” as somethin diffrent and new from J. Williams. Very interesting are the´begiinings in show one too. Your comment to the End Title Suite from The Patriot marks the point. It is e really great theme.
    Thanks for these fantastic óverview shows.
    Greetings from germany, Koblenz
