I like your choices for his outstanding work. The Imperial March is definitely strong, although as a cue I'd pick 'The Asteroid Field' as my particular favourite from 'Empire'.

But 'The Map Room' has always been my favourite part of the Raiders score.

I'd probably have included ET as well - I know it gets some criticism for being too manipulative, but it definitely one of my favourites.

Hello Jim..

I personally like "The Basket Game" from Raiders, and I think you're spot on with "The Asteroid Field"

And although I might get vaped for this, I love "Parade of the Ewoks". The plucking strings and the light-heartedness of the score really clues into the simplistic nature of the Ewoks it the movie.
