Lets see, I lost my virginity to The Passion, which is Peter Gabriels soundtrack to the Last temptation of Christ. So that gets very high marks in my book.
On the other hand, I can't believe I had to go three quarters of the way down the first page before I ran into Ennio Morricone and found it was a Spaghetti Western. Now, there is nothing wron with his work in any of the man with no name movies - it's all quite good, in fact - but his best, in my opinion, has got to be the score for The Mission.
For New Agey ambient stuff, the soundtracks for Gladiator and all three LOTR movies are outstanding too.
