Well its an easier name to use for it than "shite" in polite conversation, naturally.

No but I did watch the Truck scene in Raiders on Youtube though....
....reminded me so much of why I was a fan all those years.
Best action scene ever.

Absolutely... that was damn good. And the music was also excellently orchestrated to fit this scene.

Absolutely. One of Williams' finest moments.
The compostions/riffs are f**king amazing. Viscous, stomping riffs that verge on Metaldom....Best danger music in the world other than that fight music from the original series of Star Trek, The Jaws music, and the 'Psycho' riff (And some of James Horner's Battle music)..
The key changes as the Nazi shifts the gearshifter with Indy on the front of the truck, highlighting the peril level rising as the gap closes between Indy and the rear bumper of the car in front is utterly utterly epic and sends electric shivers up my spine every time.. Awesomeness personified.

Superb... didn't I hear a rumour that when someone played it to George Lucas he didn't know what it was from?

Thats shocking, if so...!!!
I know that he didn't know some of the Star Wars music when challenged.
It was Seth McFarland who caught him out in the interview for the extras on the Blue Harvest DVD......
2:50 is where it starts

Yeah I saw that. Funny...
Maybe I was confused with snow battle music though. However, if you don't recognise that I doubt he'd remember the truck music.

That piano thing for the AT AT's was also quite an outstanding find.

Its got that slow stomp feel in common with the opening bars of the truck chase piece too.

Yup, that plus it's simple orchestration... Despite the pompous nature of John Williams' work these are almost feats of minimalism...

Absolutely.
He throws the speed out of the window and favours brutality.
I imagine that he wrote that after watching all four Rambo movies, smeering himself in deer shit, and hiding round a primal campfire inside a cave filled with blood, bones and beercans.
