mrbellamy 6,287 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I have a few each from Tarantino, Wes and PT Anderson, and Scorsese. Also T-Bone Burnett's compilations for the Coens are outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh500 1,615 Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share Posted September 28, 2017 Men in Black is quite an entertaining album! Lots of great songs, and the Elfman score is pretty good too! By the way, does anybody have the score album of MIB? That's rather hard to find..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mstrox 6,651 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I have the MIB score album. Got it the same way I got a few others (Darkman, Night Breed, Wisdom - I think) - I put them on a "call-me" list at a local used CD score, and they let me know if anyone traded them in. New copies are costly, but it's available used on Amazon for $2 plus shipping. Not bad. Josh500 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While that may have changed over the years, it explains why it's still so hard to get a hold of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta admit, I have never even seen the score album, ever. Weird. I'll get it if I ever come across it, but like I said somewhere else, I'm not an avid Elfman fan or collector anyway. So it's not especially urgent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 3,690 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Back to the Future and Good Will Hunting are the only two I can think of. The latter for the two flawless score selections. Big Eyes was the first time I wanted the songs (Lana Del Rey) and had zero interest in the score.

BloodBoal 7,538 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Why has no one mentioned the Shrek OSTs yet? That's the only two I have, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Penna 3,690 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Because most of the songs had no relation to the film or score? (I think...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QFT I even knew 30-year-olds at the time who were Shrek devotees but the first one didn't appeal to me enough to see the sequels. I did watch Puss In Boots when it was on tele but only because I like cats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,504 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Sometimes, yes. At least back in the day, when you couldn't just download the "single" score track off of iTunes or something. You had to buy the whole album. Or other times, when the songs are originally composed for the movie, or has some kind of extra presence in the movie. Like THE BLUES BROTHERS. I'm sure I have quite a few "songtracks" in my collection if I started looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Parker 3,040 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I just wanted to come in here to say that "Kiss from a Rose" is a great song that matches Elliot Goldenthal's caliber of contribution. Oooo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naïve Old Fart 9,532 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 That fine, except...the song was originally released at least 15 months before BATMAN FOREVER. Still a good song, though (as is the rest of the album). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 On 9/28/2017 at 7:43 AM, Disco Stu said: I always buy Tarantino and Wes Anderson’s soundtracks. Anderson’s are usually a mix of the original score and the existing songs. Until Hateful Eight, Tarantino’s were almost 100% songtracks. In my opinion, these two are the best in the artform in this regard. Crafting meaningful, eclectic selections of songs that really put you in the mindset of the films. On 9/28/2017 at 10:40 AM, Disco Stu said: I'm ashamed that I didn't bring Scorsese up before! He's the trailblazer in the "director as DJ" mold that Tarantino and W. Anderson and so many others are copying. I was gonna pop in with the Scorsese comment, but you beat me to it. But now for another one you failed to mention... Woody Allen! For some reason, his taste in jazz is the only kind I can get behind. I love the soundtracks to his films and pick them up whenever I can. I also partake in albums from films by Martin Scorsese, Wes Anderson, Quentin Tarantino, Robert Rodriguez, Michael Mann, Zach Braff, and Steven Soderbergh.
