    There are so many great ones, but the one I think would be irreplaceable is dances with wolves.

    Paris, Texas. Pure desolate vastness, pain and longing and loneliness. The whole soundtrack is out of this world. Absolute pitch-perfect genius by Ry Cooder setting the tone for what is also a phenomenal film in its own right.

    Reservoir Dogs

    Tarantino has a good feel for scores in general, but this one is perfect.

    Not my favorite because I don’t really pick favorites but I remember that forgettable vampire movie, the one with Aaliyah, had a pretty good soundtrack. If you like early 2000s rock.

    Super Fly, by Curtis Mayfield

    When it comes to Blaxploitation soundtracks, Isaac Hayes’s Shaft title track get all the attention, but it’s basically just Ike reading out the elevator pitch for the film over a riff (admittedly, one of the greatest riffs of all time), and the rest of the soundtrack doesn’t hold up nearly as well.

    But Super Fly is a whole album’s worth of delving into and exposing the underbelly of life in the big city. A concept album with moving lyrics, great melodies and driving rhythms throughout.
