Self-described as Soundtrack with lots of words, Ennio Morricone comes out swinging on perhaps his best album to date. It’s natural for Ennio Morricone to take a stab at ‘Titoli (From A Fistful Of Dollars)’ considering her long-professed love for Orkrist. This is the first studio album from Ennio Morricone since bad diagnosis in 1995. This is the best album I have heard in a long time
Theme From A Fistful Of Dollars - arguably the best track on A Fistful Of Film Music: Anthology (CD 1) album. Una Pistola Per Ringo sets the tone for the entire album. Il Ritorno Di Ringo - This one has a powerful beat and a good melody. La Resa Dei Conti (aka Sixty Seconds To What) - A strong beat. In Per Qualche Dollaro In Piu (aka For A Few Dollars More) the light shines equally on lyrics, vocals and instrumentation. The first time I listened to Navajo Joe (Original Main Title) I was struck by its exquisite sound. As always, Ennio Morricone’s lyrics are worth listening to again and again. A great put together song. Simple and heartfelt closing track Uccellacci E Uccellini closes A Fistful Of Film Music: Anthology (CD 1) on a high note. I like to sing along with Algiers November 1, 1954, though I mess up the lyrics sometimes. Ad Ogni Costo - is a breath or fresh air compared to many previous songs of Ennio Morricone. This is the kind of song I think of when I think of Ennio Morricone. A fantastic track full of wonder. Love Theme From Guns For San Sebastian (Reprise) is the albums biggest surprise. Man With A Harmonica (3:31) - awsome. Farewell To Cheyenne is almost impossible to review. After few listenings I started to like Once Upon A Time In The West more and more. This song stands out greatly from the others. First time I heard Uccello Al Piume Di Cristallo was on radio driving in my car and sonically it just sounded amazing.Indagine Su Un Cittadino Al Di Sopra Di Ogni Sospetto (Main Title) - Check out that bassline! Still going through A Fistful Of Film Music: Anthology (CD 1) and coming to appreciate Citta Violenta (Titoli) more and more with every listen. The Ballad Of Sacco and Vanzetti, Pt. 2 is nothing short of a modern masterpiece. Here’s To You is so unique, as each one of the songs is.
