Soundtrack album
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A soundtrack album is any album that incorporates music from a particular feature film. In some cases, not all the tracks from the movie are included in the album; however there are rare cases of songs in the trailers that do not appear in the movie but occur on the soundtrack album. Also, music that is not in the movie can sometimes be incorporated onto a soundtrack album; one notable example is the South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut soundtrack. Two other well-known examples are the movie soundtrack albums of the Rodgers and Hammerstein shows Carousel (musical) and The King and I. In each case, two or more songs which are featured on the album were not included in the finished film.
In some cases, recorded dialogue may be incorporated into the album. This comes in two kinds: audio clips from the movie itself (used on the album for Pulp Fiction, for example) or radio dramas that involve the characters from the movie involved in other events (example: King of Pirates, from FLCL)
