Oh, yeah .. you've just named three of my favorite (film) musicians :) My top favorites are Jean-Michel Jarre's world hit "Oxygene" (the first record) which gained almost the same film music evergreen status as Pink Floyd's "Shine On You Crazy Diamond", "Time" or "Money", the soundtrack of Vangelis for Ridley scott's "Blade Runner", and of course Ennio Morricone's awesome soundtracks for "Once Upon A Time In the West" and "The Professional" (with Jean Paul Belmondo as former assassin). Another guy that would fit perfectly into your list is Mike Oldfield with his "Tubular Bells", which was also a great film sound track for William Friedkin's "The Exorcist". Pink Floyd would also be a candidate for best (movie) soundtracks ever. All of these folks have one thing in common: they are true music geniuses which are about to die out like once the dinosaurs :)
