THE MOST ESSENTIAL

MOVIE SOUNDTRACKS

For decades, songs and movies have been matched. The most successful are effective tools, cross-promoting both the music and the film in which they are featured; giving one or both longevity. Here are 50 Motion Picture Soundtrack Albums that evoke memories of the films they appeared in. The criteria was to include only movie soundtracks which consisted largely of new material, rather than a compilation of older songs or remakes.

C AN’T STOP THE MUSIC

1980

The bulk of the songs on this soundtrack were recorded by The Village People and The Ritchie Family. Both acts appear as part of the cast. Among the highlights are: the title track, “Milkshake” and “Magic Night”. Also added to the LP was The Village People’s signature anthem “Y.M.C.A.”. Although the film's plot leaves a lot to be desired, its soundtrack does contain many fun elements.
