Gotta agree. Superfly is my second favorite album of all time though so its a no brainer.

Honorable mention goes to The lHarder They Come, Shaft, and Coffey.

The Harder They Come is the one I play most frequently.
I'm also partial to 187, Twin Peaks, Passion, Purple Rain and The Wall (if that could be considered a soundtrack).

I don't usually dig Soundtrack as mix tapes, so i'll go with the Good the Bad and The Ugly.

Haven't seen this movie or heard this soundtrack but both sound great:

Image

" long lost electric funk soundtrack for the grindhouse also ran Bare Knuckles -- full of wild, funky organ riffing, heavy drums and chicken scratch guitar! The flick is one of those sleazy 70s monstrosities full of motorcycle chases, bloody fist fights, and butt ugly guys who get the girls anyway -- ripe material for a wildly funky soundtrack! We don't know details of the sessions or the players involved, but the sound is pure late 70s gritty organ and drums funk -- one that would fit a blaxploitation flick, a badly dubbed kung fu cheapie or silly revenge flick! Tracks include "Bare Knuckles", "Shake Down", "Gonna Getcha", "Loving You", "Essex Exit", "Charing Cross", "Loving You Too", "Bare Knuckle Blues" and more. (150 gram vinyl.) "

np: V/A - El Congo Brazza Kin

Grosse Pointe Blank, hands down, as far as comp-style. Definitely Superfly for original.

Repo Man (for sure)
also:

With...
fIREHOSE
Uncle Tupelo
Yo La Tengo
Lemonheads
Throwing Muses
Schooly D
Alex Chilton
Miracle Legion
The Pixies
Giant Sand
Eleventh Dream Day
Nova Mob

Not bad for a major-label in 1990, eh?

I don't listen to a lot of soundtracks, though.

+ High Fidelity
+ Blade Runner
+ Until the End of the World
+ Royal Tanenbaums
+ Lost in Translation

and I really love the way music is used in Lynch's Mulholland Drive:
i.e. the Spanish version of "Crying", and the inclusion of Sonny Boy Williamson's "Bring It On Home".

not a big soundtrack fan - Rushmore is pretty good and Singles is pretty good - those are the only ones I have I think.
