I had it on a record album years a go. They say it was a big seller when it came out.

Oh I love a good soundtrack.

Fight Club
Drive
Stoker
Tron Legacy
Anything by Tarantino
Superman (John Williams)

That's all I can think of for now, but I know more will pop into my head all day.

I remember that song Cats. The lyrics were kind of silly, about how good it is to be a cat, but I liked the melody.

Yeah, John Barry did some awesome soundtracks. King Kong, Born Free were among his best.

Another group who did cool soundtracks was Tangerine Dream.

One I thought was really awesome was the soundtrack from King Solomon's Mines, the Stewart Granger version. It was all African drums throughout the movie.
