 Liner Notes

Sixty-five million years ago, dinosaurs roamed the earth. Now, through the miracle of DNA cloning and John Williams' talent, we're back in the Jurassic Era, listening to a score which I can only call classic, vintage Williams.

John and I haven't made a movie like this together since JAWS, and it was a lot of fun for us to revisit a genre that we got such a kick out of 18 years ago.

When listening to this score, you should pay particular attention to the music of the raptors - as well as the haunting and ennobling sounds of the brachiosaurus - in my opinion some of the most original writing John has ever done for the movies.

JURASSIC PARK marks the end of our first dozen films together. It's the longest personal working relationship I've ever had with anyone in the motion picture industry, and I consider it a privilege to call John my friend.

Steven Spielberg, Director
