Film scores you listen to regularly
I've been on a Jurassic Park kick lately for some reason. Maybe it's because I've been seeing ads for the 3D rerelease, I dunno.
But the track below is one of my favorite pieces of composed music. Hearing it instantly brings back memories of seeing the movie in theaters.

Re: Film scores you listen to regularly
Where to begin!?
Anything by Jo Hisaishi or Ennio Morricone
I have my Tarantino playlist on in my car right now (which as far as SCORES go, basically means Morricone)
I have a Pixar playlist, so that means The Newmans and Giacchino
I made a five hour + movie score playlist I listen to everytime I drove up to Minnesota when I was dating my ex which includes the basics: Williams, Zimmer, Barry, Bernstein, Mancini; the specialists: Elfman, Silvestri, Herrmann; and of course my favorites: Hisaisshi and Morricone
I even have a Zelda playlist for some video game scores

Some of my favorites from Morricone include:
-"Death Rides a Horse" -"The Trio" -"Mytic and Severe" -"The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly" -"The Return of Navajo Joe" -I forget the name, but it is the end credits for Inglourious Basterds

For it is from our hearts they come, and to our hearts they shall return.” “We were like gods at the dawning of the world, & our joy was so bright we could see nothing else but the other.” “There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man.” “You have to pretend you get an endgame. You have to carry on like you will; otherwise, you can't carry on at all.” "Paper is dead without words / Ink idle without a poem / All the world dead without stories."

Re: Film scores you listen to regularly
I listen to the Miller's Crossing theme by Carter Burwell almost daily.
I also tend revisit a lot of Maurice Jarre scores: Dead Poets Society, Doctor Zhivago, Ghost, Jacob's Ladder, Lawrence of Arabia, Witness, etc.

Yes, composed by David Shire. Minimalist and piano driven.
