Sometimes, whether or not I like a movie or show depends on if the soundtrack is good. As someone who enjoys modern indie/alternative music, I really like the soundtrack for School Spirits. What's your favorite soundtrack?
There was a movie put out in '71 I believe, called Friends. I'm partial to that one.
I'll admit though, I don't pay close attention to what soundtracks. Every once in a while a song from the soundtrack makes it to the radio, so only then will I pay attention to the music.
Biographical movies about rock stars notwithstanding.

Pretty much any Tarantino movie has an eclectic, hip, soundtrack. American Graffiti has a fine 50's 60's selection. I'm not so inclined to collect soundtracks, especially on vinyl with the cost of it nowadays. But there's a guy over on the Vinyl Engine website that goes bonkers with soundtrack collecting on vinyl. In all he says he has over 10K records of all kinds in his collection.
I gotta wonder though, how can anyone devote the time to listen to that many records? Anyway in a thread of his on soundtracks he has, he showed one I'd like to have just for the hell of it because I've always admired the movie for its timeless character. The Day the Earth Stood Still. The original not the shlock remake. We need the robot Gort as much today as then to tamp down aggression in this world. Trouble is, Gort might have to make a burned out cinder of our country the way we behave.
Any-who, the music from that movie was one of the first I think to use the mysterious and still spooky sounding Theremin instrument in its soundtrack.
Klaatu Barada Nikto! Y'all.
P.S. I got to shake hands ceremoniously with Gort the movie stand-in prop from a little showing of the original movie here locally years ago.
