Offshoot of another thread. What are some movie soundtracks that you have purchased now, or in the past?

Albums from when I was really young:
Saturday Night Fever
Grease
Rocky

CD or Online as I got older or recently:
Into the Wild
Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Pulp Fiction
 
Cassette
American Graffiti
Big Chill
Rock & Roll High School

CD & digital
Gross Pointe Blank
Guardians of the Galaxy
Eddie and the Cruisers
The Blues Brothers
The Commitments

Not sure it should count: The Last Waltz (on vinyl). When it's a movie mostly of a concert...is that a soundtrack?
 
Last of the Mohicans is the only one.

I do, however, also own a CD of Yo-Yo Ma with an orchestra doing a number of Sergio Leone movie tracks.

Prior to the 90s Soundtracks were pretty bad unless the movie was about the music (Eddie and the Cruisers, Blues Brothers) or an adapted musical (Grease). There was the occasional hit that was written/performed by Kenny Loggins 98% of the time, but it was mostly really bad jingle-quality stuff. It got much better in the 90s with compilations of old hits and music from real musicians.

Here are

Eddie and the Cruisers (more Springsteen than Springsteen?)
Top Gun and Footloose (for the aforementioned Loggins)
Dirty Dancing (I blame it on a girlfriend)
Pulp Fiction
Magnolia
Singles
Big Daddy (for Sweet Child of Mine by Sheryl Crow and Garbage song)
Hamilton (not a movie (yet), but it's on the Apple Music collection prominently)

My wife has a lot more in our CD collection that never gets touched. I'm sure I had more as well.
 
Off the top of my head, (and I am guessing there are more I'm forgetting)

Platoon
Purple Rain
Trainspotting
O Brother Where Art Thou
Buena Vista Social Club
Mambo Kings
Boy'z In The Hood
Garden State
Dazed and Confused
Quadraphenia
Pretty In Pink
Reservoir Dogs
Amadeus
Mama Mia (my wife's download.... I swear... no, seriously)
Gross Pointe Blank
The Blues Brothers
The Commitments
Pulp Fiction
Singles
Forest Gump
Lost Highway
Empire Records
Breakfast Club
Super Fly
Rent

We have a lot of music, all genre's, love it
 
The Commitments

The original Rocky Horror Picture Show soundtrack. Some great music there.
 
Romeo Must Die. One of the best soundtracks ever.

I left out my wife's CDs. She has a ton of them. Props for O' Brother.

Red Headed Stranger - Willie Nelson
 
My first and only was the best - Mary Poppins
 
SNF is a great great soundtrack, one good song after another. I had it on 8-track.
 
Another good one...Neil Diamond version of The Jazz Singer.

I forgot that I downloaded the soundtrack to Crazy Heart.
 
Pulp Fiction
O Brother Where Art Thou
Braveheart
Star Wars

And:

 
Vision Quest (mostly for Lunatic Fringe but good overall)
Heavy Metal - Double LP I think
Eddie & the Cruisers
Monty Python & the Holy Grail - technically not a soundtrack, but I think it billed itself as "the album to the soundtrack to the movie....."
