Are probably my 2 favorite ones that you can play them all and enjoy.

Not the best, but Stand By Me has a great one

Haven't seen either of these listed but the soundtracks to both Desperado and From Dusk til Dawn are fantastic.
For top to bottom quality, my vote would probably be Forrest Gump.
Tier 2 - Saturday Night Fever, Dirty Dancing, Detroit Rock City, Grease, Dazed and Confused, Animal House, Blues Brothers, maybe Top Gun
South Park - Bigger, Longer, Uncut will also always be one that has a special place in my heart... a lot of awesome packed into that one IMO (if you're into off-color sing alongs, at least) even if none made it onto mainstream charts
There are a LOT of others that have one song they're really known along, with maybe 1-2 secondary songs, and then nothing else noteworthy / quite a bit of filler.
Side topic: Are soundtracks still a thing since the world has gone to all digital downloads for music? I don't know that I've even tried to listen to a soundtrack wholesale since the days of CDs...

Great songs and the way they injected the soundtrack into the story with that cassette is pretty cool too. Quill risking his life for his tunes and finding out why was a nice twist.
Edgar Wright seems to know how to make a soundtrack work.
