Jerry Goldsmith Dead At 75

Jerry Goldsmith, the Academy-Award-winning composer responsible for the some of the most memorable music in both TV and Cinema history, including Star Trek, Planet Of The Apes and The Omen, has died at the age of 75. In a career spanning nearly six decades and with a formidable 300-plus recording credits to his name, Goldsmith was widely regarded as one of the pre-eminent film composers in modern Hollywood, possessing a prestigious reputation of the kind only equalled by John Williams. Certainly, a great many of the instantly recognisable movie themes of the last 30 years can be attributed to Goldsmith
