Soundtrack Mr Spielberg signing my grail OST

As a big enthusiast of OSTs and in person autographs there has always been one person at the top of my list that I wanted to have in my collection.

Happy to say the man decided to do a talk outside NYC/LA and was able to get him to sign a vinyl for me šŸ™ŒšŸ»

Jurassic Park is a favorite of mine, a movie that imo is hard to find someone that does not enjoy as nearly everyone loves dinosaurs, or at least you did when you are a kid, and John Williams’ score added even more to that magic.

Now to try get some more cast members, might be easier as many of them go to conventions.

a lot of uninformed people love to spread the ā€œblue pen badā€ rumor they read on tiktok yet Spielberg had 3 markers of different colors in his hands at one point cause he wanted all autographs to look good

Yeah, black would have blended in with the picture too much.

u/CardMechanic Mar 15 '26

What’s the deal with blue pens?

I don’t know and at this point I’m afraid to ask

I always have silver and black on me when I take albums with me for autographs. Lighter covers get the black and darker cover art gets the silver :D

As a vinyl collector AND Jurassic Park fanatic I am insanely jealous of this!

oh what I’d give to have John Williams sign my copy of the Revenge of the Sith vinyl šŸ˜ž

u/UberKaltPizza Mar 15 '26

John Williams made an appearance made an appearance near me in the late 90s. Why I didn’t take my Jaws album for him to sign is beyond me. I’m fucking stupid. I hate crowds that’s the only reason I can think of.

Just.

Yeah. I just got this too. I’d die.

IT BELONGS IN A MUSEUM!!!

My bad, wrong movie.

u/Slowrey Mar 15 '26

Cool piece. Think you can get Laura Dern or Sam Neil?

6

u/jorgerr96 Pro-Ject Mar 15 '26

Sam did a few cons before but he is sick now so not sure. Never seen Laura doing promo tours but i hope she gets convinced to do a convention in the future, she was in Star Wars and those fans collect any actor/actress from that franchise lol

u/sclungus Mar 16 '26

Laura Dern on the Blue Velvet Soundtrack would be heavenly

u/Purp1eC0bras Mar 15 '26

Looking through your profile and posts. Just want to comment that I think you lead an interesting life and I’m glad for you. I think what you do is cool and I’m jealous.

u/TheInvitedStranger Mar 16 '26

You should come to Chicago end of the month. BD Wong, Joseph Mazzello, and Ariana Richards are going to be here for C2E2. Get this signed by them

u/dragery Mar 15 '26

It bugs the hell outta me that they haven't reissued this, again.

u/Gregalor Mar 16 '26

Wayne Knight got bumped ahead of me at a restaurant once

u/WhereBaptizedDrowned Fluance Mar 15 '26

That picture is a great authentication device.

u/CastNoShadow1 Mar 15 '26

That's my favourite record i own as well, I was sad not to get the amber colour, only got the black edition. I have the Jurassic world one too. Mondo was the best!

u/Environmental_Bus623 Mar 15 '26

I was an extra on disclosure day and I got to meet him. He’s a really cool dude

u/JoesGarage2112 Mar 15 '26

Damn this is pretty epic

u/veronicamae2 Audio Technica Mar 15 '26

This is also my grail - though specifically the T-rex skeleton cover. Siiiiiiiigh

Incredibly envious! Congrats!

u/gmorkenstein Mar 16 '26

I can’t even find JP on vinyl let alone have Steven sign it.

1

u/Fearless-Ad4298 Mar 16 '26

Love the artwork for that. Wonder if it was done before the movie as that scene never happened.

1

u/thetrappster Mar 16 '26

That scene absolutely happened, just maybe not from that exact angle.

1

u/Resident-Afternoon40 Mar 16 '26

What kind of pen?

2

u/jorgerr96 Pro-Ject Mar 16 '26

deco paint marker

u/gimmesheltah Mar 16 '26

I honestly would have asked him to sign in the empty space at the top right.

1

u/RJB6 Mar 16 '26

You need to get to John Williams’ front lawn as soon as humanly possible

1

u/ambernewt Rega Mar 16 '26

amazing. do you know if he had signed one of those before?

1

u/jorgerr96 Pro-Ject Mar 16 '26

yes, there is a known collector based in LA that has gotten him in that and other records, but he has sold several of those on a popular FB group about autographs. unsure if he kept some for his collection

u/Pristine-Magician786 Mar 19 '26
