His name is legend: the whistle and guitar from "A fistful of dollars", the voice of the crazy "Mah'na Mah'na", composed by Piero Umiliani.
His name is associated to those of Ennio Morricone, of vocalist Edda Dell'Orso and the "Cantori Moderni" ("Modern Singers"), the choir that accompains the maestro in soundtrack performances but also in arrangements for Italian pop music hits in the 1960s.
Multi-instrumentist, one of the few sitar players on the Italian scene, performs several Morricone soundtracks, from "Le foto proibite di una signora perbene / Forbidden photos of a lady above suspicion" to "Vergogna Schifosi / The Dirty Angels".
His filmography seems endless, with dozens of titles ranging from spaghetti western to erotic movies and Italian comedy.
In the last few years, several of his compositions have been reissued, from "El Puro" to "Suor Omicidi/Lo Strangolatore di Vienna/Lady Frankenstein" plus various single tracks appeared in compilation albums.
Recently he recorded this totally new score for a fantastic b-movie that crosses martial arts and spaghetti western,
published by Hexacord!

Delightful
author: Fresh Tuneage
The shadow of Ennio Morricone looms large over this CD but as anyone acquanted with a large chunk of my music collection knows, that really isn't a bad thing to me. Alessadro Alessandroni is something of a legend in Italian cinema, though he's mostly unknown in the US. Well, his name is unknown but you've heard his whistling and guitar playing in soundtracks such as A Fistful of Dollars. Trinity Goes East is a B-movie cross between a spaghetti western and a martial arts movie and Alessandroni has given it a delightful soundtrack. Listening to this album, sometimes you think you're listening to Once Upon a Time in the West but, as the saying goes: It's not a ripoff. It's an homage! Check out Trinity on the March and the Main Title.
