When it comes to the history of cinema
there are scant few among us who cannot recall the era defining
soundtracks to such great films as Saturday Night Fever, The Harder
They Come, Pulp Fiction or Trainspotting. Because for the serious
music lover, life can be archived by its soundtrack. Perhaps the
first time you heard My Bloody Valentine or Public Enemy, you knew
where you were, what you were doing, how it made you feel. It is
there as we go through periods of huge change, as we grow and learn,
as we laugh and cry. It's there for many the first time we kiss
someone, the first time we have sex.
