The soundtrack became a bestseller in its own right.

Williams’ reputation was already well established at the time Star Wars came out, with the composer scoring Steven Spielberg’s Jaws, mar Star Wars confirmed Williams’ place among the greats. To date, he is the only composer to be honored with the AFI Life Achievement Award.
