Soundtracks that you listen all the way through and it's all great.

Hey! sometimes the soundtrack is so good that you don't care about the movie anymore. The music behind soundtracks can be compilation of various artists rock, jazz or mixed styles or created by one composer. Electronic music soundtracks, orchestral neo-classical and other styles I will list my favorites here in this discussion:

1. Gladiator -- an awesome neo-classical movie score with voice of Lisa Gerrard on double-CD. near 2 hours of pure joyful music uninterrupted by movie. At the same time the role of Commodus was brilliant as well as Lucilla

2. Shining -- great movie and state of the art soundtrack done by Wendy Carlos.

3. Dark City -- great electronic score by Trevor Jones

4. Pulp Fiction -- various

5. Kill Bill

The Cat Stevens soundtrack from "Harold and Maude." If only they had made one. Most songs are available on "Greatest Hits," and of course, on the boxed set. I really liked "If You Want To Sing Out...Sing Out."

I am seriously impressed there is no mention of "Jesus Christ Superstar", this is my first choice.
Gladiator pushed Lisa Gerrard into mainstream and stardom but any Dead Can Dance album, with Brendan Perry baritone diluting her wailing is much more listenable all the way thru. If in doubt, just listen to Lisa Gerrard with Klaus Schulze albums: too much of a good thing is too much for me.
Tangerine Dream soundtrack and Zabriski Point share the bronze medal in my collection: far from the best but I have to bow to my fav groups ;-)
