Cool article-though I think Franz Waxman did Bride of Frankenstein
He certainly did.
You can also tell the author of the article is a big Jerry G fan by playing up his influence a little too much. Williams was already exploring 'primal' percussive ideas and atonality a decade earlier in his television work.
You can certainly hear some musical gestures in things like Lost In Space which are certainly reminiscent of what would eventually become SW.
