in no particular order...
Quo Vadis.....Tadlow
Ben-Hur........FSM
Vertigo....both the Varese and Conlon rerecorded versions. They are very good and quite different at the same time.
and QB V11... Tadlow.

My one FSM pick would be two picks:
Mutiny on the Bounty and Raintree County.
And then there is Goodbye, Mr. Chips (autographed copy) which would have to piggyback on the others.

My most cherished LP was the Beatle's White Album. My mom bought one for me the minute they were available in the stores and gave it to me for Christmas. It survived several moves, endless playing and looked like new, including the original poster that came with it. It was lost in a house fire about 10 years but not before my kids got to listen to it. It represented a huge slice of my life and I am sad that it is gone. I could have replaced it several times but it wouldn't be the same.
Sorry if I am ot and it was supposed to be film scores.
My favorite (non-film score) album of all time!! Love every track, even the short, "silly" ones.
"Dear Prudence" and "Julia" are two of John Lennon's best, most beautiful songs, while "Mother Nature's Son", "Martha My Dear" and "Blackbird" are McCartney at the top of his game. "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" and "Long, Long, Long" show Harrison writing as he never had before....
Anyway, my apologies to the OP as well if I went ot.
"While My Guitar Gently Weeps". Awesome choice of this beautiful song. I agree wholeheartedly.

Aren't people kinda cheating with these box sets though?
Nope, because nothing in my library comes nearly close. However, if I HAD to choose a single album...
FSM's Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. The one score I wanted complete since I saw the movie opening night at the young age of 16. My favorite Trek movie and Trek movie score and the presentation is perfect. There is nothing about that album that disappointed me.

Star Trek The Original Series Soundtrack Collection. It trumps every other single release I ever had. Two years on and I still listen to it regularly. it is the crown jewel in my library.
Indeed. It is an insurmountable colossus. Even by the likes of John Williams.

Apart from my big four earliest purchases (Stargate, Batman, Star Wars and Star Trek: The Motion Picture) that I will forever remain indebted to for solidifying my love of movie scores, my most cherished CD/LP (this score works for both!) is probably the first holy grail I managed to get my mitts on: The Dark Crystal.
Back in the very early days of the internet, I remember scouring the web for any tracks I could find from the movie. Using those awful file sharing programs of old (Kazaa, Limewire, etc) I managed to cobble together a few meagre tracks, and once I had a little more faith in online shopping I splashed out on the old Dutch LP.
I even remember listening to the isolated score a couple of times on the original DVD.
So when Numenorean Music finally released the original album on CD (and the full isolated score to boot) I was ecstatic. Hearing the original album presentation in remastered form was nothing short of a revelation. Even the art used on the cover of the release was perfect.
To this day, hearing that sweeping majestic overture still gives me chills.
Special mention should probably go to LaLaLands continuing releases of the Batman Animated TV Series soundtracks, music I thought would never see the light of day (roll on Tuesday and Volume 3!).
