I’m no music expert what with their fancy degrees and ability to appreciate music beyond “This sounds good.” But I do know lists and lists generate controversy and controversy equals traffic! And with their patented “slideshow” format which creates more hits based on an itemized story, EW.com has a real racket going!
Well, we just listed it like normal people after the jump. Take a look, see if you agree, and scream your disbelief at how a certain album you love wasn’t included. Also, remember that this is a list of soundtracks which are usually a collection of songs used in a movie as opposed to a score which is usually the instrumental accompaniment to the film created by a single composer (although there are obviously scores created by more than one composer).
If you want to click through the list like a chump, click here. It would have some value if they included just a small paragraph about why they chose each soundtrack for the list.
25. Buena Vista Social Club (1997)
24. Grace of My Heart (1996)

Where the heck is the Garden State Soundtrack?! One of the best mixes I’ve ever heard! Seriously EW, what’s your problem? Do you have any understanding of music whatsoever. It’s probably one of your un-qualified staff writers!

Totally agree on the Garden State. As well as where is Elizabeth Town, City of Angels, Empire Records, The Crow, Grind, and many many more??? Hmmm have to say not pleased with this little list of theirs.
