Más conocido por su versión discotequera del tema de Stars Wars, el trombonista, productor y arreglista de jazz Meco Monardo empezó a tocar en la banda del ejército de West Point. Antes de trabajar en West Point, Meco, estudiante de la Eastman School of Music de Rochester, perfeccionó su técnica junto a sus compañeros y futuras estrellas del jazz Chuck Mangione y Ron Carter (del famoso quinteto de Miles Davis) en un combo de jazz de tres músicos. A finales de la década de 1960, Meco empezó a labrarse una reputación como músico de sesión y arreglista. Durante este periodo se dedicó a arreglar e interpretar música para anuncios de televisión y se le atribuye el arreglo del éxito de Tommy James en 1969, Crystal Blue Persuasion. En 1974, Meco dio el salto a la fama al coproducir el éxito disco de Gloria Gaynor Never Can Say Goodbye, al que siguió el éxito de Carol Douglas Doctor's Orders. Animado por el éxito de su disco, Meco se dirigió a Cassablanca Records con la idea de reelaborar parte de la música de la película de George Lucas Stars Wars y Neil Bogart, jefe de Casablanca, le dio luz verde para grabar el álbum Star Wars And Other Galactic Funk. Los éxitos no tardaron en llegar y Meco realizó tratamientos similares para la música de El mago de Oz y Encuentros en la tercera fase. Se retiró de la música en 1985 y se convirtió en corredor de materias primas en Florida.
