Martin Scorsese, David Lynch, Spike Lee, Quentin Tarantino, Paul Thomas Anderson and Wes Anderson compile the best pop-compilation soundtracks.

For “The Imperial March” alone, I’m going to have to say “The Empire Strikes Back” by John Williams for best original score.

Seeing the joy on Mr. Williams’ face while conducting the Vienna Philharmonic on this piece on YouTube is a treat.

Aside from being a gifted musician, one of the most tasteful and skilled rock guitarists (Dire Straits), Mark Knoppfler has written some brilliant sountracks.
Two that come to mind are Cal and Local Hero. 
And the movies are also excellent.

When my dad got his first good stereo around 1964, a Fisher component system, one of the first records he bought was the soundtrack to West Side Story - Always had fond memories of that timeless recording.
