What's your favourite film music/score?

As above what is your favourite film music/score.

I think mine would have to be from Highlander, Queen did a superb job

Anything by Morricone....

The Untouchables (all time fave)
Clint Eastwood spaghetti westerns
Once Upon A Time In America
The Mission
etc

Other faves are....

Conan The Barbarian
Indiana Jones
The Godfather
The Warriors

Even though I'm a HUGE Queen fan, Highlander (or Flash Gordon) are not my favourite soundtracks.
They're not really soundtracks in the terms of 'film scores', they're simply added songs to the action (ala Scorcese), good songs though...well Highlander at least.

I'm pretty sure that the orig Highlander sountrack (score) by Michael Kamen is avialble on CD.

All predictable I suppose...

Blade Runner
Moricone - anything
Star Wars
Bond Theme & most of the main songs, esp Live & Let Die
LOTR

A good double CD to get is Music by Ry Cooder which collects most of his themes
