I've always been a fan of soundtracks because they can be so eclectic. You also can buy them for a few artists only to discover new ones.

In addition to those already mentioned, here a few of my favourites:


1) Dead Presidents - A collection of rich soul and funk tracks for the 70's, many of which are hard to find elsewhere.

2) The McMullin Brothers - Energetic Irish music, both original and traditional, by Seamus Egan. (plus a Sarah Mclachlan song) This movie was one of the first my wife and I saw together when dating.

3) Dead Man - Neil Young improvised this feedback heavy score live to the Jim Jarmusch/Jonny Depp movie.

4) Curtis's Charm - Funky, Mello grooves with lots of analogue soundscapes from the movie. As a bonus, the CD includes a reading by Jim Carrol of his short story that inspired the movie.
