Album Notes

Some web notices:

"...his playing is uniformly flawless...touches provide hidden depth that encourage listeners to play the album start-to-finish, never mind over-n-over - an uncommon trait these days...an absorbing aural experience." - AP McQuiddy, GRINGO review

"I've heard more horrible covers than I can count, and this ain't one of them. Very good choice of cues, and the style is such that they would have fit perfectly into the actual scores! My hat's off to you, Lou, for giving us a cover album that is miles above that which has done by even the biggest and the best. Bravo!" - John Nudge, Spaghetti Western Web Board

"Very nice renditions of great songs!" - Jonny M, Spaghetti Western Web Board

"Musician Lou Pecci has released a great album of spaghetti western themes as played on his nylon-string guitar, it's definitely worth picking up." -
John Ryan, Fistful of Pasta.com

"Great selection of themes, nice mix of styles, great job with the melodies/arrangements/overlays." - Kerry Byrnes, SW fan - USA

"I certainly hope this CD gets distributed and heard widely, it deserves to." - Paul Hannon, SW fan - UK

"Very nice work!" - Chris Casey, chriscaseysoundtrackmusic

"Wow, sounds pretty talented. Nice work, I like it" - Sargnagel, Film Maniax

"The CD is wonderful" - Cricket 853, Film Score Monthly

"...an album that brings together some of the best works of the genre..." - Ruben Franco, asturscore

"It sounds great." - Echoes, Dispara Gringo!

Recorded with only an overdubbed electric nylon string guitar synthesizer (the synth used on the last track with a loop station), this CD was put together with an eye towards sequencing. The idea was to take a number of titles from different films, put them in the order of their release date (or close to it), and have them complement each other. While the Sergio Leone films are the best known in America, the others were all greatly popular in Italy and throughout Europe in the Sixties and Seventies. Composer Ennio Morricone is represented eight times here (nine if you include the harmonica figure from "Once Upon a Time in the West" borrowed for track 12, an original tune). The three remaining writers (Luis Enriquez Bacalov, Gian Piero Reverberi, and Marcello Giombini) are also important musical figures in the history of Spaghetti Westerns.
