Blue Man Group's "TV Song" is an supremely cool mix of surf guitar and epic western motifs.

And, although it's not a "Spaghetti Western", I can highly recommend Jerry Goldsmith's scores for "Our Man Flint" and "In Like Flint" for your library (crank-up "You're a Foolish Man, Mr. Flint", OMF, for some adventure-guitar & tropical percussion ecstacy... Oooo.)

Cheers and aloha,
SOK

(ps: Morrecone's "The Ecstasy of Gold" is the most sublime bit of Spaghetti Western music I can think of; I dream of sitting in on the recording session of that, playing French horn -- can anybody guess which four notes? And Ennio's rare (and all too brief) title music from "The Men from Shiloh" hits the same synapses. Wow.)

(pps: Also think you might very much dig the original "Barbarella" soundtrack, and when you say you have the Morrecone stuff, do you you mean you have "Two Mules for Sister Sara" and "Duck, You Sucker"? Dig 'em.)


"Don't let it be forgot,
That once there was a Spot,
Where Blowfish all wore sunglasses,
and Tiki-times were hot..."
