[quote name='clauster' post='237204' date='Jul 11 2008, 11:53 AM']Huge [size=7]+1[/size] for "Oh Brother..."[/quote]

Just been out on me dinner hour and bought this from the local 2nd hand CD shop.....
(In Rochdale, 'Rocks Off'...good shop for a rummage on a rainy dinner time).
A credit crunching Three Pounds Fifty!...it had better be good!
I did see a tune off it on TOTP2 on Dave a few months back....the tune with G Clooney, and thought it was good then.
Not the sort of stuff I'd normally like, but I looked up the compilation on Wikipedia before I went, and saw it was produced by T Bone Burnett...
Who I saw on Jools Holland with R Plant & A Klauss.....
And i liked that 'real gone' tune.
Went looking for their CD, but they didn't have it....

... Glen Hansard and The Frames; Marketa Irglova ...[/quote]
Haven't seen that, but I have seen the part where they play the song [i]Falling Slowly[/i] in the music shop. That was filmed in Walton's on South George St. in Dublin, about the only place you can get SX basses in Europe. :)

Ah, this is a subject after my own heart.
I second many of the previously mentioned titles especially [i]Lord Of The Rings[/i] and [i]Blade Runner[/i].

Here are a few more personal faves to recommend (in no particular order):

[b]Ennio Morricone - Once Upon A Time In America[/b]

[b]Ennio Morricone - The Mission[/b]

[b]Chinatown - Jerry Goldsmith[/b]

[b]Band Of Brothers - Michael Kamen[/b] (though a series and not a movie soundtrack as such but brilliant composition by the late Michael Kamen).

[b]Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence - Ryuichi Sakamoto[/b]

[b]The Falcon And The Snowman - Pat Metheny & Lyle Mays[/b] (s/t does include hit single 'This Is Not America', Pat Metheny with David Bowie)

[b]To Live And Die In L.A. - Wang Chung[/b]

[b]Dune - Toto & Marty Paich[/b]

[b]On Golden Pond - Dave Grusin[/b]

[b]The Thomas Crown Affair (orig.) - Michel Legrand[/b]

[b]Bullitt - Lalo Schifrin[/b]

[quote name='tayste_2000' post='237309' date='Jul 11 2008, 01:45 PM']Ocean's 12 and 13 loads of bass by Justin Meldal-Johnsen

Awesome old style grooves[/quote]

Excellent call.

I'll raise you with 'Dirty Harry' Lalo Schifrin.
Loads of good tracks, & some nice fuzzy bass. Seem to recall Chuck Rainey was bass player on the soundtrack(?)

Oh, and I just remembered two other soundtracks that I was moved enough to buy in recent times...

[i]Bend It Like Beckham[/i] ...good mix of bollywood & pop

&

[i]River Queen[/i] (Karl Jenkins) ...which I've just bought the DVD of and will watch for the first time tomorrow night. It will be weird, as I am so familliar with the soundtrack, which I've listened to for the past 12 months

[quote name='ARGH' post='237497' date='Jul 11 2008, 06:09 PM']'Apollo' soundtrack by Eno
and Bladerunner...if only for Demis Russos's vocal.[/quote]
I have the Apollo soundtrack - wonderful stuff. I have s soft spot for the Eno & U2 Passengers, album, [i]Original Soundtracks[/i]. It was supposed to be music for imaginary films, but one was actually used in a soundtrack, coincidentally, the film I mentioned earlier: [i]Ghost In The Shell[/i].

Odd fact about Demis Roussos: he's a bassist too, and played in his first band Aphrodite's Child. :)
