Some scores, like Superman or Raiders, I prefer to listen to in complete form, so I wouldn't include cues from them in a compilation. So I have a Williams playlist which consists of those one or two cues from albums which otherwise don't have much standalone appeal. For me, scores like Seven Years in Tibet, Stanley & Iris, Nixon, Memoirs of a Geisha, Munich or Jurassic Park don't, on balance, stand alone very well, so I made a playlist of their main or end titles, and/or the one or two cues which make for good listening ("Journey to the Island", "Growing Up in Wittier, "Becoming a Geisha", etc.). I love pretty-much all of The Phantom Menace, but only enjoy bits of Attack of the Clones, Revenge of the Sith and The Force Awakens, so I have a playlist which includes most of Episode I, with selected tracks from the other films added in ("Across the Stars", "Rey's Theme", etc.) I love about half of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (but the rest is too strident for me), so I have a playlist which blends the good bits of that score with the cues Williams wrote for Chamber of Secrets (I left-out the Ross adaptations, and noisy cues like "Apparition on the Train and the Werewolf cue). In the case of Jaws, I prefer the original re-recorded album to the actual OST. However my Jaws playlist includes a few cues from the OST which were not included on the re-recording.

The Spielberg / Williams Collaboration (vol. 1) Me too! Love all three volumes, but this is the most-listened to compilation in my embarrassingly vast collection. (I don't make compilations any more, and never did for Williams. Goldsmith, yes, but that's about it.)

I tend to be of the same mind, focusing on the highlights from those non-blockbuster score albums, although I do love everything on the albums for all the Star Wars movies.
