Science Fiction Music Is Great

By Young Lindsay


People growing up in the 60's, 70's and 80's will always remember the television shows coming on during that time. They also enjoyed the great science fiction music that these programs provided. Many of the movies also had great tunes that had a really wonderful beat. Jerry Goldsmith, John Williams, Maurice Jarre, Vangelis and Barry Gray did their best to provide excellent music for many movies and television shows that appeared over the air. They are known for "Lost In Space, " "Logan's Run, " "Barbarella" and a host of other programs.

A certain composer named Jerry Goldsmith was a smart man who knew how to put life into a futuristic program. "Star Trek" was one of the many television events that Mr. Goldsmith assisted with. He even helped to compose the tunes for several of the motion pictures that revolved around this series. All of the characters involved within this particular show were very interesting people who did dynamic things each and every week. The viewers loved this excitement.

Mr. Goldsmith went on to write the theme for a movie called "Logan's Run." This was a terrifying movie about people who could not live past the age of thirty. Logan was the hero within this film and he was a person that enjoyed his sexual freedom. He had become a reluctant runner when the higher authorities ordered him to find and destroy a place called sanctuary.

The mood of this film was very dark and the tunes used in this particular movie were very loud and frightening. John Williams is a famous musical artist who took the time to write for two very big events. In the 1960's this man wrote the title theme for a show called "Lost In Space."

People who watched the first two seasons of this show were not very impressed with the opening theme or its cartoon drawings which could be seen. They became very excited after "Lost In Space" opened to a new countdown scene which led to a tune and graphics that were very eye catching.

George Lucas made tons of money with his "Star Wars" movies which started in the late 70's and still exist to this very day. At the beginning of these films the viewers are treated to a loud and interesting theme song that is very unique in style. Throughout the entire movie he uses loud sounds whenever there is a dangerous situation and even has a love theme for the romantic couple in this film.

"Barbarella" was a 60's vixen who knew how to seduce men and women. She was on a desperate mission to locate a government agent who disappeared some years earlier. When she finally locates this strange male he tries his very best to torture her in every possible way.

This scientist was also an agent for the government and he wanted to destroy Barbarella in any way possible. The most interesting sounds happen when the strange male places this woman within a sex machine which sounds like a person moaning. The title song to this motion picture is also very interesting and easy to learn.
