With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Audio-wise, very nice.

Visually, It's really time he stop doing that whole vest/waistcoat thing. It's been nearly two decades and it shows. Somebody really oughtta stage an intervention... and while they're at it, maybe they could get Iggy Pop to put on a shirt too.
