Top 10 Movie Soundtracks of All Time
I was driving back from Ventura to LAX this week and while listening to KROQ they mentioned that Vanity Fair had released their list of the “Top 10 Movie Soundtracks of All Time“. They are as follows:
10 The Big Chill
09 American Graffiti
08 Saturday Night Fever
07 Trainspotting
06 Superfly
05 The Graduate
04 Pulp Fiction
03 The Harder They Come
02 A Hard Day’s Night
01 Purple Rain
As I listened to this list I cound not help but think they were missing several albums I think are critical to having a good Top 10. How about this alternative?
01 The Wall
02 A hard Day’s Night
03 O’ Brother Where Art Thou
04 Pulp Fiction
05 Grease
06 Saturday Night Fever
07 The Big Chill
08 American Graffiti
09 Grosse Pointe Blank
10 Purple Rain
Honorable Mention: This is Spinal Tap, Tenacious D (yea, I know this wasn’t really a movie but it should have been), Little Shop of Horrors and Rocky Horror Picture Show. And lets not forget the beautiful and noteworthy use of Wagner and the Doors in Apocalypse Now.

No Judgment Night and Spawn Soundtracks?
Those were instrumental in setting up “mixed genre music.” Many say that Judgment Night birthed a whole new genre with that album.
