NEW DOUBLE LP

New sealed copy. 2024 limited edition remastered reissue on 180 gram vinyl.

Raiders of the Lost Ark: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is John Williams’ rousing score to the 1981 Steven Spielberg adventure classic. Performed by the London Symphony Orchestra and recorded at Abbey Road Studios shortly after its reopening, the music brings a theatrical, larger-than-life energy to Indiana Jones’ first on-screen outing.

The score is anchored by The Raiders March, one of Williams’ most iconic themes, which balances heroism with just enough swagger. Originally written as two separate ideas, Spielberg liked both and asked Williams to combine them—creating the main theme and its bridge. Romantic and darker cues contrast the action, from sweeping nods to golden-age Hollywood love themes to ominous orchestral lines underscoring the film’s Nazi antagonists. For the Ark of the Covenant, Williams incorporated chorus and orchestral grandeur to evoke biblical awe.

Nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Score, the Raiders soundtrack remains one of the most recognizable and enduring works in film music, setting the tone for an entire franchise and solidifying Williams’ legacy in cinematic storytelling.
