Music and the movies have long formed a creative partnership since the inception of moving pictures as a public entertainment. Even in the days of silent movies it was important to accompany images on the silver screen with ‘live’ music provided by pianists, full orchestras and a Mighty Wurlitzer. Great composers would be recruited by the film studios to create grandiose scores in the classical style that complemented the action unfolding in the latest Western, comedy or historical epic. Stage musicals, pop, rock’n’roll, soul and jazz are all represented among the ensuing 60 tracks that have graced a plethora of all-time great movies
