American Spaghetti


This is from an album I missed until this week, which inspired a 2007 film that I also missed. (I was probably either in the Philippines or Iraq, depending on when it was released that year.) The album is clearly inspired by the work of Ennio Morricone, and has some good moments as well as some cheesy ones, much like Morricone himself. A worthy tribute.

At first it sounded to me like a 45record being played on 33.

Yeah, there are a lot of weird effects, but that was typical of Morricone too — especially on his less famous tracks. There’s a good fugue on the album; and a really intense piece built around Lakota-style drumming.
