Josh: Yes, it was Newman. I had thought that a new cut of the Beatles' "Because" was a part of that score, but it is not listed as a cut at Amazon. Otherwise, I don't see any other 'songs' listed there.

Josh: In another listing of that soundtrack, "Because" IS listed (by Elliot Smith) a near-perfect rendering. I guess there is a Newman CD and a VA CD for this movie...

I imagine I've left so many fantastic soundtracks off the list, as well as many wonderful composers. Henry Mancini comes to mind. How could I miss him?! When I look at my crateful of soundtracks from throughout the years, I am amazed how prices have changed since John Williams made soundtracks popular. I used to get them for 50 cents or a dollar apiece in bargain bins! Now, they never drop the price on them!

RE:
In your opinion, what is the best Orchestral Movie Soundtrack? Is there a movie composer that you like?

The Lord of the Rings movies have BEAUTIFUL soundtracks. Howard Shore is the composer, and though I haven't heard anything else that he composed (that I know of), I really enjoy the music.
I totally have to agree with Terry, I adore The Phantom of the Opera. Andrew Lloyd Weber is a genius, as I've said many times. Some of the songs he has written are among my very favorites, such as "Music of the Night."

I absolutely loved the score for Interview with the Vampire. It is not my favorite movie of all time.. but that soundtrack is one of my favorite CD's.. My favorite song is Libera Me

The only song that doesn't fit in with the rest of the soundtrack is Guns and Roses version of Sympathy with the devil... the rest is all Score..
The Second for best score is Legend.. (Music by Tangerine Dream.. )

I really liked some of the music in "The Saint".
I wish Trans-Siberian would do some movie sound tracks.
