I mean all the scores I linked released in 1977, which is 40 years ago. Hence the 40th anniversary of his releasing Black Sunday, Star Wars, and Close Encounters all in a row.
Is this a good time to bring up that he scored episodes of Gilligan's Island?
His short scores for the show are very reminiscent of Home Alone and a little bit of Star Wars, but mainly holy shit can you hear the similarities to Home Alone in here. You can TELL when you hear the Williams pieces. It's kinda nuts.

In this video the time codes for Williams pieces are:
:19 -:34 - Johnny Williams (JW) - "Gilligan's Travels" (pilot)
4:16 - 4:57 - JW (pilot)
6:29 - 6:50 - JW (pilot)
7:24 - 7:30 - JW "HELP!" (cue title) last part (pilot)

This video is where you really start hearing the Williams you know.
Time codes:
0:33 - John T. Williams (JTW), pilot score
0:46 - JTW, arr. Gerald Fried (GF) "Nyet, Nyet, Not Yet" opening (S2)
1:16 - JTW, arr. GF (S2)
1:18 - JTW "Long Distance" (cue title, from pilot)
2:58 - JTW "More Marina" (from original version of pilot)
7:26 - JTW "Who Goes There?"(from pilot)
7:57 - JTW (pilot)
8:33 - JTW "The Marina" (pilot)
8:57 - JTW (pilot)
With the most Williamsy pieces being at
4:16 - 4:57 - JW (pilot) in video 1, and
0:33 - John T. Williams (JTW), pilot score
and the most Star Warsy piece,
7:26 - JTW "Who Goes There?"(from pilot), and
8:33 - JTW "The Marina" (pilot).
Yes, I know I'm the only one that gives a shit about finding stuff like this, but I need as much Williams as I can get.
