Composer John Williams is the defining sound of Hollywood and, arguably, the most widely listened to composer in the world. Kirk decided he needed some help tackling Williams' towering musical legacy, so he enlisted Australian author and musician Dan Golding as his tour guide through Williams' musical world, with a special focus on his groundbreaking score for 1980's Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.REFERENCED ON THIS EPISODE:<ul><li>Dan's book <a href="https://www.upress.umn.edu/book-division/books/star-wars-after-lucas">Star Wars After Lucas</a>, his ABC radio show <a href="https://www.abc.net.au/classic/programs/screen-sounds">Screen Sounds</a> and his podcast <a href="http://www.artofthescore.com.au">Art of the Score</a></li><li>"Liberdade" by Dili Allstars</li><li>"Celebration" from Push Me Pull You by Dan Golding, 2016</li><li>The Adventures of Robin Hood score by Erich Wolfgang Korngold, 1938</li><li>Excerpts from Untitled Goose Game as assembled by Dan Golding</li><li>"Right Time" by Mighty Diamonds/Sly & Robbie, 1976</li><li>"Peter Gunn" by Henry Mancini, 1959</li><li>"1.
