I only know Jeff Wayne's tune - not a major headbanger rocker type although I did like Queen'a earlier rock stuff.
Here's something else a little different for all your classical music fiends.
Recorded 3rd February, 1986(cassette)
Side 1
Overture to the Marriage of Figaro-Mozart
Fur Elise-Ludwig van Beethoven
Eine Kleine Nachtmusik-1st movement-Mozart
Piano Concerto No.1 1st movement B.Flat-Tchaikovsky
New World Symphony 2nd movement-Dvorak
Pomp and Circumstance(Land of Hope and Glory)-Elgar
18th variation from a Rhapsody on a theme of Paganini-Rachmaninov
Anvil Chorus(Il Travatore)-Rossini
Hall of the Mountain King from Peer Gynt Suite-Grieg
Overture to Lohengrin-Wagner
Hungarian Rhapsody No.2-Liszt
William Tell (or The Lone Ranger theme)-Rossini
Side 2
Radetsky March-Johann Strauss
Morning-Peer Gynt Suite-Grieg
Farandole(L'Arlesienne Suite No.2)-Bizet
Air On a G-String-Johann Sebastian Bach
Ride of the Valkyries-Wagner(also known as Kill the Wabbit!)
The Sorcerer's Apprentice-Paul Dukas
March of the Torreadors from Carmen-Bizet
Pizzicato Polka-Tchaikovsky
Original BATMAN theme-Danny Elfman 1989
English Folk Song Suite-Vaughan-Williams(2)
Norwegian Dances Op.35-Grieg
Different yes but some great stuff here to look up for yourself. I added the BATMAN theme from the original film because it was modern classical in its own right and Elfman gets the 'atmosphere' of the comic book character spot on.

Some stone cold classics there, pulse racing stuff.

^^ For me,Danny Elfman's theme for Batman is the best of all the films in the series.

I think classical music has changed and people's perceptions nowadays also favour people like Danny Elfman, Hans Zimmer and James Newton-Howard and of course the great John Williams's film scores - in fact he is featured every year in the Classic FM Hall of Fame. No reason why you can't have a few classics on a pop mixtape-remember Hooked On Classics with Louis Clark-he got the idea to do a pop/classic combo album using a boom-tah sound because one day when rehearsing he heard a jackhammer going up and down and decided to use that as the 'beat' and set it to some of the best loved and well known classical tunes-instant hit.

Anyone who rates Top of the World and the Obvious Child can't be all bad IMO

Bumpity Bump.
Well, I am going to take the esteemed OP at his word (since he isn't here) about the era not mattering.
But then I'm going to stretch it because looking at the tracks this must have been compiled in the 2000s.
And just to add insult to injury, it's a CD-R not a cassette.
I know, shoot me now....
