I thought John Williams did a great job for that one too among his current films.

I think he's always been in his prime, and he ALWAYS comes through for Spielberg. Whether Spielberg is at the top of his game or directing the odd blunder, I always feel John Williams delivers well on the score. Probably the strongest affection for any Williams era would be the late 70's to early 90's since that was when SW, IJ, Close Encounters, E.T., Superman, etc. were all getting made and those themes are just unforgettable in my eyes (or ears, rather ;)).

And as a side note, his score for Saving Private Ryan never fails to get teardrops flowing from my eyes everytime I watch the movie.
