a good example would be some of the music on Brian Eno's Apollo album.
I've been looking for more steel music and in particular music by bill
stafford.  I was told to rent the movie " my own private Idaho " because 
he did the soundtrack.  The music was really good but the movie on the
otherhand was horrible.  on the down side there was no soundtrack
released for the movie to my knowledge.  so the search continues..
