Top Movie Soundtracks

We all love movies and music is a big part of movies.  Vanity Fair has come out with a list of the Top 50 movie soundtracks.  Here's the top 10:

10. The Big Chill
  9. American Graffiti
  8. Saturday Night Fever
  7. Trainspotting
  6. Superfly
  5. The Graduate
  4. Pulp Fiction
  3. The Harder They  Fall
  2. A Hard Day's Night
  1. Purple Rain

Now, I think some were missed that should have been in the top 10.  First of all, how about Footloose?  That was a great soundtrack!  Also, what about the musicals that were made into movies i.e. Sound of Music.  You can't get much better than the Sound of Music!!  I threw it out to the listeners today on the air and they also added some great soundtracks that were missing.  They suggested Grease, Top Gun, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Dirty Dancing and Tommy. 

So what do you think is missing from the list?

1 - Question: are they talking about hits that come from soundtracks, or just great music? As you well know, there's a difference.
Hits: Forrest Gump, Billy Jack, Easy Rider
Great music: The Matrix trilogy, Star Wars, Indiana Jones (and any other John Williams score)
Great musicals: Jesus Christ Superstar, West Side Story, Music Man, Oklahoma!, Chitty-Chitty Bang-Bang, Mary Poppins

I'm almost tempted to look at the list...
Nahhh... you know me better than that. (Comment this)
