Movies or Music Mondays: Best Movie Soundtracks

There was an article recently written by a sports writer for ESPN stating that Almost Famous is the best rock and roll movie. The article tasked it's readers with naming even one other rock and roll movie that came close to being as good...and I could not. (Link to article below post). This got me to thinking about how perfectly movies and music can blend together to create a multi-media experience for the viewers. And that made me think about my favourite movie soundtracks, so, here is my list:

1. Almost Famous
2. Elizabethtown
3. Singles
4. Reality Bites
5. Juno
6. Garden State
7. Pulp Fiction
8. Pump Up The Volume
9. Pretty in Pink
10. The Wedding Singer
11. Romeo & Juliet (1996)
12. High Fidelity
13. Reservoir Dogs
14. Footloose
15. Dirty Dancing
16. The Rocky Horror Picture Show
17. The Bodyguard
18. Grease
19. 8 Mile
20. Grosse Point Blank
21. P.S. I Love You
22. Natural Born Killers
23. Dazed & Confused
24. Empire Records
25. Breakfast Club
