All of Prince's movies are about him! Or a bat.

Maybe Tindersticks?

Definitely Tangerine Dream. Several of their film scores could be argued to be their best work.

Vangelis IMO

Ooh good call with Vangelis

― DJP, Friday, 27 February 2015 15:07 (nine years ago) link

Tindersticks I have no idea. Indeed good one with Vangelis since I actually thought he was mainly a soundtrack composer !

I have searched for someone in hiphop but couldn't find a good one.
it should be Kanye's next challenge !

Not Tindersticks.

Popol Vuh?

Arguably, Simon & Garfunkel (they share soundtrack space with Dave Grusin).

Jimmy Cliff

― J. Sam, Friday, 27 February 2015 15:31 (nine years ago) link

I thought about Jimmy Cliff but there are many other acts on The harder they come.

hmmm Simon&Garfunkel is arguable indeed. But why not since it's mostly considered as one of their albums.

Susumu Hirasawa ;)

Micah Levy, currently.

Is More considered part of the Floyd canon? Seems to be ignored by the casual listener as far as I can tell.

Cat Stevens?

if it's compiled from previously released material does it still count? The Graduate has only or couple (or one?) previously unreleased track on there.

― piscesx, Friday, 27 February 2015 16:26 (nine years ago) link

Wang Chung an obvs choice. surely, easily THE most famous of their albums.

Beatles of course had FOUR aswell; Yellow Submarine, Help, AHDN and (arguable) Magical Mystery Tour (which for the UK was only ever a double-EP until the 87 CD reissues)

― piscesx, Friday, 27 February 2015 16:30 (nine years ago) link

Philip Glass

And, more or less, Let It Be.
