I got the idea for this thread when I read about the "missing' disco version of CLOSE ENCOUNTERS.
SO here is the premise:
What film score releases , released on 45rpm vinyl, would be included in the FSM film score jukebox?
My picks:
THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY - Hugo Montenegro
THEME FROM E.T.; FLYING

I love this topic! I actually have a Seeburg Q-100 jukebox that I've thought about trying to stock with just film music, but my tastes are too eclectic and I can't help but put some non-score favorites on there. It only holds 50 records.
Right now, the film score 7" records it holds are:
GLITTERHOUSE - "Barbarella" / "Love Drags Me Down" - Dynovoice DY-927 - white label promo - from "Barbarella"
BOB CREWE GENERATION - "The Black Queen's Beads" / "An Angel Is Love" - Dynovoice DY-928 - white label promo - from "Barbarella"
NINO ROTA - "Raquel" / "Ballando Con Raquel" - Parade PRC-5014 - Italian release - from "Spara Forte, Più Forte ... Non Capisco"
WILLIAM LOOSE - "Theme Of The Vixen" / "O'Banion's Song" - Beverly Hills 45-9347 - from "Vixen"
LUIS BACALOV - "Carrefour" / "Seq. 7 - Sistemo L'America e Torno" - Four Flies FLIES-45-03 - from "Colpita Da Improvviso Benessere" and "Sistemo L'America e Torno"
ROBERT PREGADIO / ANTON ABRIL - "Kriminal" / "Il Cobra" - Four Flies FLIES-45-02 - from "Kriminal" and "Il Cobra"
The last 2 are very recent releases on the excellent "Four Flies" label.
I do have a few more 7" film score records, but it would be an interesting challenge to try to fill all 50 slots in the jukebox with just soundtrack music.

CARRIE (Pino Donaggio) got a 45 rpm release in Japan if I'm not mistaken. Four decades and I still can't get over how much I love the music from that movie.

The Third Man - Anton Karas (still on 78, though)
Lara's Theme - Maurice Jarre
The River Kwai March/Colonel Bogey March - Mitch Miller, Malcolm Arnold
Theme From 'A Summer Place' - Percy Faith, Max Steiner

Hope that someone on planet Earth owns a copy of Piccioni's 1960 hunchback Il Gobbo:
:format(jpeg):mode_rgb():quality(90)/discogs-images/R-8409781-1461060058-1610.jpeg.jpg)
According to Stefan Schlegel, master tapes do not exist on Il Gobbo so this is one Piccioni for which the EP album is the only source.
Never saw a copy of Il Gobbo myself, but I found this image of it @ discogs.

When I was England and France in 69 or 70 as a young teenager I bought a few albums not available in the US, plus a few singles:
The Raging Moon (Stanley Myers); still one of my favorite scores
Boom (Universal)
Zulu (Ember)
John Barry Plays 007 (Ember)
Once Upon a Time in the West (it's hard to believe that once upon a time this great score was not released in America when the film was released)
45s:
Macadam Cowboy/Fun City by John Barry (French edition)
OHMSS/We Have All the Time in the World
Lonely Bottles/Hangin Paper -- Quincy Jones from In Cold Blood
although I did not buy it (because I never saw it) I love that Lion in Winter Part 2 version of "The Herb Garden" Getting that track on CD is a Holy Grail for many Barry fans
also very good (for a cover): On the flip side of "Call Me Bwana" (composed, theoretically, by Monty Norman) but performed by organist Sir Julian is a great cover of "Seance on a Wet Afternoon" that is very rhythmic and guitar driven. It's amazing how almost any early JB theme sounds great on an electric guitar.
And Barry's instrumental (from the US album) Goldfinger/flip side "Troubador"
