Best Movie Soundtracks

The Last of the Mohicans, for sure. :bow:

There have been many great soundtracks mentioned. But for me, the thing that stands out in LOTM soundtrack is the haunting sounds of The Gael among other pieces in the movie and the way the music matches the pace and tone of the story to an extraordinary degree. The choice of music for the different action scenes in the movie is above and beyond.

My favorite is from the movie Out of Africa. Vern

The power of music to invoke the emotions of that movie is wonderful. Watch the hunt scene at the beginning, first with the sound on, and then again, with it off. It is not nearly (at least to me) as powerful and moving without the music.

I've always liked the soundtrack to " Conan the Barbarian ".

The Searchers

I don't know if anyone has seen the hbo series "John Adams" but it has a pretty good soundtrack. The only bad thing is the movie is about 8 hours long.

Eight hours of decently faithful history, well-acted and interesting, and you call that a bad thing?

Poordevil,
Go to "youtube" and keyword Jeremiah Johnson. It's there. I have it on my favorites list. I listen to it about once a day. The best version has RR in a buf robe with his Hawken. MJD

My vote goes to a more resent release; Ride With The Devil http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0dpuKULBQo ....If you haven't caught this movie yet you are missing a real treat.... and like any good movie, the sountrack puts it over the top! One of the best Civil War movies I have EVER seen.

Excellent movie. It's been a while since I have seen it so don't remember much about the music. I'll have to drag out the tape and watch it again.
