• Crash, music by Mark Isham.
• Bad Lieutenant, music by Mark Isham, as above.
• The Blues Brothers.
• Baraka.

I like John Williams, natch, and the scores for LOTR are pretty cool. I also like Dave Gruisin and the music from "The Natural". Picked up this BD (also got the companion CD set), haven't had time to listen yet:

The movie did nothing for me, but I borrowed the CD of this from the local library - and was very impressed ...


The accompanying remixes on their companion album Tron Legacy: Reconfigured are also excellent if you like dance or electronic music. Track 4 here is my go to for straining tweeters and woofers...

Ah and there's also a bootleg version of the recording sessions knocking around the internet (in FLAC...)

I think there must be something wrong with me, entire movie soundtracks just don't do it for me. :(

I do however like the big James Bond themes:
Goldfinger (Bassey)
Diamonds are Forever (Bassey)
Nobody Does it Better (Simon)
You only Live Twice (Sinatra N)
Goldeneye (Turner)
Live and Let Die (McCartney/Wings)

Oh that studio 54 soundtrack was good. OK, there's some I like...
