Rolling Stone has given their list of the top 25 movie soundtracks ever, and it's pretty good, even if it's missing some classics:
- Help! (1965)
- Purple Rain (1984)- (*oh come on, this is better than Help)
- The Harder They Come (1972)
- A Hard Day's Night (1964)- (*also better than Help)
- Saturday Night Fever (1977)
- Superfly (1972)
- Pulp Fiction (1994)- (*unimpeachable)
- Rushmore (1999)
- This is Spinal Tap (1984) (*lol, do people really listen to them for fun?)
- O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2001)
- Pretty in Pink (1986)- (*great one, the best of the John Hughes soundtracks)
- Wild Style (1983)
- Trainspotting (1996)
- Easy Rider (1969)
- Goodfellas (1990)
- The Graduate (1968)
- American Graffiti (1973)
- Boogie Nights (1997)- (*too easy, way better compilations of 70s hits)
- Magical Mystery Tour (1967)
- Singles (1992)- (*yes! grunge at its finest)
- 24 Hour Party People (2002)
- Lost in Translation (2003)
- Juice (1992)
- Rock and Roll High School (1979)
- Head (1968)
Given that it's Rolling Stone of course, rock from the 60's and 70's and/or The Beatles is bound to take precedence, so here are some other great ones they missed: Garden State, Grease, High Fidelity, Dirty Dancing, The Big Lebowski, Mean Streets, Drive, The Last Waltz, About a Boy, The Royal Tenenbaums, Django Unchained, Empire Records, The Blues Brothers and 8 Mile.
