What's an adventure game soundtrack that lives rent free in your head? (youtu.be)

I mean, obviously I'm biased, but Space Quest III just had one of the most amazing kick-ass soundtracks. Composed by Bob Siebenberg, the drummer from Supertramp!

So many, but:

Quest for Glory: Shadows of Darkness by Aubrey Hodges

Gabriel Knight 2: The Beast Within by Robert Holmes

Not quite an adventure game soundtrack, but also all of Swan Lake.

Gabriel Knight 2

What a wild game. I want to replay it, but played it too recently. Need time to forget the puzzles.

Wonder if we'll see anything in this vein again. There is Markus Ritter, which seems to be at least inspired by the same German-evil-hunter-descended-from-Ritter-lineage backstory. I'm playing its sequel in the Steam Next Fest, haven't made it very far, and it's definitively an indie/lower budget game, but has a nostalgic and interesting feeling, and is actually a point and click game, unlike some latter-day FMV games that are more like choose-your-own-adventure with dialogue prompts.
