Hell if I know. I feel the same way you do on this one. Not a terrible OST really, but nothing amazing. CT was way better.

Final Fantasy VIII jumps to mind. Certainly not hailed as one of the greatest soundtracks ever in general, but it is an FF soundtrack which carries certain expectations. It's the only Uematsu soundtrack that I hate as a whole though. Most of the tracks bore me to death.

I'm having a hard time thinking of any others at the moment, but I'll also say I haven't enjoyed any Koji Kondo composed soundtrack since the N64 I think and even those weren't necessarily great music, they just suited the game making them good soundtracks. I can't think of anything original he's done since that stood out to me, and I'm also getting tired of the endless reuse of classic themes from my childhood.
