Dueling Banjos - Deliverance 

Easy Rider soundtrack

Everything from Harold & Maude.

Damn Tom, you beat me to it again.  Closing scene was awesome. One of my favorite movies and the soundtrack was huge.

 

 

 

Speaking of closing scenes, Mark, here's "Once I Was", from "Coming Home".   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGK4eTvD8mQ

The Graduate

 

Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Reservoir Dogs, Repo Man

 

Damn, I messed up, I just picked the soundtracks.

 

 

Apocalypse Now-The Rhythm Devils film score and the selected songs (Saisfaction, The End) were excellent.

Neil Young singing Home on the Range in Where the Buffalo Roam.

The Bill Murray,  HST movie.

scorcese movies usually have great music throughout 

"Everybody's Talkin" from Midnight Cowboy has to be up there.

"Something in the Air" by Thunderclap Newman at the end of Magic Christian was also pretty cool:

Cameron Crowe also has great music in his movies.  Almost Famous' use of Simon & Garfunkel's "America", The Who's "Amazing Journey", and the original song "Fever Dog" all rate.  His movie "Elizabethtown" also has great music.  Richard Linklater is another director who has good music in his films.  

Pulp Fiction, Forrest Gump and Repo Man have great soundtracks.

Speaking of Cameron Crowe, "Somebody's Baby" in Fast Times is iconic.

Don Ellis - French Connection
