Edith Bowman, former Virgin Radio and BBC Radio One DJ, chatted with The List about Soundtracking, her weekly podcast looking at film soundtracks. During the interview Edith discusses her best moments on the show, and was asked about one of her favourite stories, which just so happened to be Star Wars related….
What’s one of your favourite stories to come out of the podcast?
I was nearly in tears recently when Rian Johnson described to us going round to John Williams’ house and sitting and talking to him about the soundtrack, then looking around and thinking he was in a library of books until he realised all these leather bound volumes covering the walls were every score he’d written, in the form he’d written them in. It almost brings me to tears thinking about it. Seeing that the score for his film was going to fit in this library with all these other scores was amazing. That really touched me.
