I love the soundtracks to The English Patient and The Shawshank Redemption.

But the best ever is Saturday Night Fever. Case closed.  ;D

Yeah, Saturday Night Fever is great Nicky!

God, and to think I used to dance to that music when I was a teenager.

Yep! I was a Disco dancer.  :P

Hi Marlb42! Yeah, "Fame" was another good one.

I'm forgetting a bunch of really good soundtracks.

Did somebody mention "Amedeus" yet? That's another good one.

Let me second the

"Out of Africa" and "The English Patient" soundtracks and two more:

"Oscar and Lucinda"
"Blue Lagoon" the Brooke Shields version (yeah, the movie was cheesy, but Basil Poledouris did some absolutely beautiful soundtracks).

My favourite soundtrack album -
and I had this on vinyl way back in the 1970s
 is Bob Dylan's  music for Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid.
    (Dylan acted in the movie, too.)

The soundtrack that gave us the cllassic song
"Knockin' on Heaven's Door"

Lots of guitars and Bob sounds OK too.
Now I have the CD.

I saw Breaking Away listed as a soundtrack, but I've never heard it.
Must be perfect with all that "Italian" music.
Better look that one up.

Oh Yes
Shawshank Redemption and The Motorcycle Diaries too.

I've been listening to Knockin on Heaven's Door and Lay Lady Lay nonstop on The Essential Bob Dylan for a couple of months now! What a great album, and when I told EDelMar that Bob Dylan was in a Western movie, he didn't believe me!

I really liked A Room With A View.

O Mio Bambino Caro sung by Kiri Te Kanawa was very romantic and moving. Perfect in a Tuscan landscap.
