The Rebel Black Dot Songs of the Day
John Williams, "Star Wars/Arrival at Naboo" from Star Wars: Episode I—The Phantom Menace (T.L.A.M.)

Commentary: When the Los Angeles Philharmonic played the unforgettable opening measures of "Star Wars" the Hollywood Bowl fairly erupted; this was very late in the program, because what could follow this? I admit to having been ever so slightly disappointed when the chorus did not return after the intermission, because that meant "Duel of the Fates" was not in the offing.

Sonntag, 7 September
Sam Cooke, "Jesus Gave Me Water" from Portrait of a Legend, 1951-1964 (T.L.A.M.)
