I'm just getting into rock & folk. Can anyone suggest other films that have soundtracks with not-to-be-missed iconic classic rock and/or folk music of the 60's & 70's? Thanks!

These are all good replies with The Big Chill is by far the best period Soundtrack.

Technically it probably doesn't count since the music isn't from the time period depicted, but A Knight's Tale!

The Graduate (1967), Saturday Night Fever (1977), and American Graffiti - the film was released in 1973, but is set in 1962, with music from that era. Also, the soundtrack to Stand By Me (1986) - Excellent soundtrack! The film is set in 1959.
