Your Favorite Film Soundtracks?
 

Post them up here :thumbsup

The blow soundtrack and the dazed and confused are definate favorites!

natural born killers

Spotted this on TV the other day, remembered how I loved the music when watched it in the cinema

Lost in Translation
Spawn
Jesus Christ Superstar

I'm not sure why but I always get a kick out of this song. Takes till 3:20 for the main part of the song to start.

I guess that is more of a theme song, but close enough.

I like The Crow music. Very dark and sexy

I love all the 80s horror movies that went overboard on synthesizers when they were all the rage.

Pulp Fiction

Anything by Lalo Schifren...

Check out the "Dirty Harry" Soundtrack

Rolling Stones, Ry Cooder, and Last Poets among others "Performance" soundtrack

"Fight Club" - my college roommate and best buddy from The Dust Brothers

"clockwork orange" mindblowingly ahead of its time

"Zabriskie Point" - original Pink Floyd and Jerry Garcia on the same soundtrack? This is one way to define amazing.

These are really what I would call "Soundtracks" in the sense of containing ORIGINAL music that is created to help tell the story. Nowadays, "soundtracks" seem to just be collections of ok tunes that record labels want to retread and package in collections. Oftentimes, the music on these so called soundtracks is nothing more than a slew of tunes that ran through at the end credits in order to make it on the album.

Passion of the Christ
Gladiator
Pirates of the Caribbean
Harry Potter
Last Samurai
to name a few...

Goodfellas

To Live and Die in L.A. Wang Chung

spaghetti Westerns



I figured most would post newer flix so I posted older ones

"Southern Comfort" another great Ry Cooder entry, but don't think this has ever been released because I have searched for it for years but at least there is always...

"Paris, Texas" another bit of Cooder genius, along with "The Long Riders"...

He stands as tall as Lalo if you ask me when it comes to scores/soundtracks

Going back also to Pink Floyd, the soundtrack for "More" is one of my favorites of the band period.

"Sweet Sweetback's Badass Song" - groovy, funky, black power, right on, Sr., not Jr. movie about making the movie

James Brown - "Black Caesar" - beyond the pale, the basis, the kernel of the core

Moulin Rouge :upsidedow

Romeo + Juliet

Apocalypse Now
Variety
Pulp Fiction
The Kids Are Alright
Usually, Sons of Anarchy have a great track.

On the hillbilly side of things...

"O Brother Where Art Thou"

Get funky again with...

"Foxy Brown", "Slaughter's Big Rip Off" and bow to the power of Curtis Mayfield's landmark "Super Fly"

In a classical yet modern realm and, trust me, worthy of checking out...

"Master and Commander: Far Side of the World"

^ "Apocolypse Now" features the spacey percussive stylings of the Grateful Dead's Mickey Hart and Bill Kruetzmann :thumbsup:thumbsup, some good spooky stuff going on there

Finally realized the genius of "Saturday Night Fever", took years to figure it out.

Listen to Bob Dylan's "Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid" or just be content to live a life unblessed... (it is mostly instrumental btw but includes the epic "Knocking on Heaven's Door"

And I guess because it is kind of a western gangster movie too, only Jamaican style mon, "The Harder they Come"... which reminds me "Rockers" is a reggae soundtrack of the highest order...

Do not be afraid to let your inner hippie free with "Easy Rider"

Do musical's count? What about "Rocky Horror"?

As a CD, the Queen of the Damned soundtrack is totally rocking...

The soundtrack to My Name is Nobody, Ennio Morricone, keeps coming back to my brain... I hum it in public sometimes...

:D

Ennio!

He has a bunch of winners...

"Once upon a Time in America," ..."in the West", once upon a time anything he has done...

"The Good the Bad and The Ugly" should never be taken for granted just because it is so freaking iconic, but so is "For a Few Dollars More" which gets less fanfare but is totally genius too.

Tangerine Dream has some great soundtracks...

Most know "Risky Business" but I recommend "Thief" and "Sorcerer", which is a fantastic remake of "The Wages of Fear" and both those movies are well worth the view.

Across the universe
Almost famous
Quadrophenia
A hard day's night

Queen did some fantastic soundtracks too for "Flash Gordon" and "Highlander"...

NBK gets my vote because of the eclectic variation of musical tastes. From the genius of Leonard Cohen to the hardcore country of Patsy Cline it all meshed to match the films style.

The soundtrack and the film are just hallucinatory masterpieces... seek them out like you would seek enlightenment in a darkness like a night without stars

"Holy Mountain", one of my favorite Jodorowsky films

Quadrophinia
Queen of the Damned
Heavy metal
Wanted
Highlander
5th Element
John Wick (saw last week. Track Rocked
Sucker Punch

Something Wild (A really classic soundtrack)

Vanilla Sky

Blow

Pulp Fiction

(A good movie but I always thought this movie was totally overrated by mainly idiots who thought it was "cool" simply because of a guns, dark glasses, hair cuts and dead people)

The Breakfast Club

All of the Ennio Morricone soundtracks from "Once Upon A Time In America" to "Good, Bad & Ugly"

Cat People {Giorgio Moroder / David Bowie}
Came out when I worked for MCA Records and the Moroder instrumentals, plus of course Bowie were a winner!
Nastassja Kinski's tits & ass in the movie, didn't hurt, either!

John Wick

I love the soundtrack and score to the 80's animated movie Heavy Metal, very inspirational. Also Lawrence of Arabia, Predator, and Lord of the Rings.

Like putting out fire with gasoline... that is a good one for sure.

Paul McCartney got surprisingly funky on "To Live and Let Die"

Mike Bloomfield...

Not only did he do two amazing soundtracks for the LSD classic "The Trip" but also "Medium Cool" and a few Mitchell Bros. porn soundtracks...

When you think of the "wacka wacka bwow" sound in the Golden Age of Porn you are bowing to the majesty of Bloomfield and his influence

Taiwan Canasta

Beck on "Scott Pilgrim" and "City of Ghosts"

From silly fun punk to haunting chilly like a trunk with a body that may or may not be in it.

Oops, the last one was a fuckin' remix. The original soundtrack is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsHfgQwDamk - that's a movie about Russian gangsters. Something like "The Sopranos", but much more interesting, dramatic and dynamic (there are only 5 episodes).

P.S. The Sopranos was real boring. Don't understand who found that sticky pink snot amusing :2 cents:

Boogie Nights
True Romance
Reservoir Dogs
Pulp Fiction
Kill Bill
Guardians of the Galaxy
Natural Born Killers
Drive

Top Freaking Gun.

Surprised to not see this one listed, The Blues Brothers.

Best ever for me.

I won't tell ...

notorious (biggie movie)
