The Man Behind the Music of The Last of the Mohicans, Gettysburg, Ghostbusters II and Dozens of Hollywood’s Most Beloved Films Opens Up in a Wide-Ranging Conversation
LONDON / NEW YORK — Randy Edelman, one of Hollywood’s most celebrated and enduring composer-songwriters, joins Andrew Eborn for an exclusive conversation on The Andrew Eborn Show, broadcast on Octopus TV. In a career spanning decades, Edelman has composed scores that have become inseparable from the films they inhabit — from the sweeping, Golden Globe-nominated romance of The Last of the Mohicans to the iconic themes of Gettysburg, Ghostbusters II, Kindergarten Cop, The Mask, Dragonheart, and Billy Madison. His music has accompanied the Olympics, the World Series, and the Academy Awards. Now, in conversation with Andrew Eborn — lawyer, futurist, broadcaster, and one of television’s most compelling interviewers — Edelman reflects on a body of work that has moved millions.
Eborn, whose show has earned a reputation for drawing out the full story behind celebrated careers, brings his signature combination of warmth, wit, and incisive questioning to this rare extended interview with one of film music’s true originals. Edelman speaks with candor and charm about the creative instincts that shaped some of cinema’s most unforgettable moments, his songwriting legacy — with compositions recorded by Barry Manilow, Olivia Newton-John, and others — and what continues to drive him forward as an artist and performer.
The conversation arrives at an exciting moment for Edelman, who is currently looking ahead to to several performances in the UK and landmark performances at the Stonewall Inn in New York City on July 25, 2026 …An Evening with Randy Edelman — followed by his third appearance at Carnegie Hall on December 19, 2026. Far from resting on an extraordinary legacy, Edelman is actively performing, creating, and connecting with audiences in the most personal way possible.
The Andrew Eborn Show airs on Octopus TV and is available worldwide. The show has featured major figures from film, music, sport, business, and public life, with Eborn drawing praise from Sir David Frost, who called his interviewing style simply “magical.”
