Another Classic Movie as well as classic soundtrack:
Breakfast Club ~ That Simple Minds song "Don't You Forget About Me" gets stuck in my head after seeing this movie!
Me too! I watch The Breakfast Club whenever it's on.

I've got to go with the Blues Brothers Soundtrack also, I love Ray Charles ''Shake a Tailfeather" off this album & the Blues Brothers near 8 minute version of "Sweet Home Chicago" is a must have! Not a weak song on here.
Other than that...
Rock & Roll High School - has a great live Ramones Medley as well as the Title track which is great.It also features Alice Cooper,Nick Lowe,Brian Eno,Devo,Eddie & the Hot Rods, & a great power punk cover of Richie Valens' "C'mon Let's Go" played by the Paley Brothers & the Ramones
Pulp Fiction -When I seen PF in the Theater & Chuck Berry's "Never Can Tell" came on I was pretty Blown away & couldn't believe hearing it.I always loved that song.I loved all the surf tunes as well as Jungle Boogie
Almost Famous-Thunderclap Newman's "Something in the Air" really stood out in the film as well as "Every Picture Tells a Story", & "Tiny Dancer"...Hell the whole OST is great
Casino - a great double CD which mixes Blues,Big Band,& classic Rock. It has one of my favorite Blues/Novelty songs of all-time "I Ain't Got No Home" by Clarence Frogman Henry
...I'll also add 2 others that are hard to find nowadays
Get Crazy - This is one of my favorite Rock Movies of All Time it stars Malcolm McDowell as an aging RockStar named Reggie Wanker & the drummer in his band is John Densmore of the Doors.It also stars Lou Reed as a reclusive Rock Icon who spends the entire movie in a cab taking the Long way to the gig so hee can write a song.The soundtrack is great & features the Ramones "Chop Suey"
Hardcore Logo - Kind of a Punk Spinal Tap Movie that stars Headstones singer Hugh Dillon as Joe Dick singer of aging Punk band Harcore Logo. The Original Tunes are great on the Soundtrack
