amanibhavam... you seemed to forgot "THE WALL." (A Pink Floyd fan I pressume? So am I.)

I kind of like "HAIR!" Most of the lyrics are hilarious... but demented. But the music is very good. Especially the bass rhythm towards the end.

Have to include "STAR WARS" also.

Yeah, but The Wall is not a soundtrack, strictly speaking. It's the other way round, a "pic-track", if you like.

My wife loves Tangerine Dream so I imagine her favorite sound track is from Legend. I've listened to my Return of the Jedi st more times than I can remember. I suppose it gets the nod for me. :D

hmmm...Tangerine Dream is pretty cool! I like their music and soundscapes. Of course they also did the soundtrack to Dawn of the Dead which elevates them in my eyes! ;)
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

I have a new favourite - the soundtrack to Pirates of the Carribean. Oh my... the heroes theme is superb - it really make me smile and feel the salt in the air (even though it might have suited some kind of SF-movie as well... but I can hardly find the feeling of any lac of atmosphere/vacuum while listening to it) and the ghost-theme is almost equally lovely: what a back beat!

The Man of La Mancha (the one with Peter O'toole). the movie was a big disappointment, it had horrible editing but the soundtrack is just amazing.

You spoke to me of a quest...

To dream the impossible dream...

Sancho! My armour and my Sword!

What matter wounds to the body of a knight errant, for each time he falls he will rise again and WOE TO THE WICKED!!!
Its truly a powerfull soundtrack if you like that sort of thing.
