What are the best soundtracks?

[andrewducker]

I asked on my Facebook What instrumental movie soundtrack albums are better than Danny Elfman's Batman score?

And got a boatload of comments. Here are all of the suggestions in alphabetical order.

Sadly, there's no way for me to group these on Spotify to find later. But in the meantime, here's the list, and I'll be dipping into it whenever I fancy something instrumental in the background.
