CD Reviews
Great compilation from Morricone's lesser known westerns

"The opening track, Tradimento Primo is worth the purchase price alone. Great liner notes too."
Morricone the Maestro Indeed!

"I grew up with the 1960s Spaghetti Westerns and the music of Ennio Morricone, and this album, (I love the word album) does indeed bring back many of those memories.
From the first note, to the last, this is truly Morricone.
Arena, from il Mercanario (Track 18)...what's not to say? This music, and its simple melody, along with the (B)olero rhythm brought tears to my eyes. God, what a grand piece of music. Bravo!

"THIS IS WORTH THE PURCHASE OF THIS CD.FROM THE 1ST TRACK TO THE LAST
JUST TO HEAR THE SCORES BRING'S BACK THE VIVID IMAGES FROM THESE
WESTERNS.ENNIO MORRICONE IS TRULY THE IL MAESTRO OF FILM SCORE'S.FROM THE
1ST OPENING TRACK OF BLOOD&GUNS TO L'ARENA FROM IL MERCINARIO/THE
PROFESSIONAL,MAKES THE HAIR ON THE BACK OF MY NECK STAND UP.
HE IS IN MY OPINION THE AMADEAUS/SHOPAN OF MODERN WORLD OF MUSIC
AND FILM SCORE'S.IF AND WHEN HE LEAVES THIS WORLD,HE WILL BE TRULY
MISSED BY SO MANY AND MY SELF,BUT HIS MUSIC WILL SHINE FOR ETERNITY***"
Morricone Kill: Spaghetti Western Magic from the Maestro
C. A. Luster | Burke, VA USA | 03/26/2009

"Although the whole album is good there are certain movies Ennio Morricone wrote movie music for that were generally more appreciated. The best music on this particular CD is for "My Name is Nobody", "A Professional Gun", and "Duck You Sucker (A Fistful of Dynamite, Giu LA Testa)". Certainly the songs for "Blood & Guns", "The Hellbenders", and "The Big Gundown" "Let's Go Kill, Comrades" although not as well known are good. You will be hard pressed to find all the music of Morricone you enjoy on just one or two CDs. His diveristy and proliferation throughout his career is well respected.
