That song is The Ecstasy Of Gold,written by Ennio Morricone. The Metallica band has been playing that as their intro music for about 40 years man. Every fucking show.:yah:dude:

It goes to show you that Stratocasters can handle any type of music...especially both kinds. ;)

In general, the entire dollar trilogy deserves top marks. Simply incredible music by Ennio Moricone, brilliant direction by Sergio Leone and ... Clint Eastwood! The heroes of the dollar trilogy performed by Eastwood were the idols of my childhood.

Fantastic music, loved since it I was a kid, still have the vinyl in my collection! He's not playing vintage strat, just an old looking strat but you can't expect a pro guitarist for the DNSO to afford a fifties strat...
I do wonder if the original was played on a strat, somehow it sounds off to me. I wouldn't be surprised if it was played on some Italian guitar...

On the night a plane crashed into my neighborhood, I was watching the film, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. One of the compositions, The Story of a Soldier, brings back memories of pain and screaming. It was almost like the aftermath of a terrible battle.


Morricone was a brilliant composer, in the same league as Bernard Herrman. When a composer can evoke the emotion and poignance of these artists, it is music at its purest.

The sound track from The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is the greatest movie sound track ever composed.

Fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
The Jill theme from Once Upon A Time In The West is one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written, not just for a film.

There is a version done by a ukulele orchestra that is simply amazing.
I’ll try to find it

The music in this movie is really cool!
I also really like the music from the Lord of the Rings movie. It is epic, beautiful, attractive. Music only makes movies more exciting and exciting. In the case of the Lord of the Rings movie, music just played its role in all its glory. In some episodes, she made me cry. I haven't cried over any other film before watching this movie. I was shocked by this. Also, for me, this is an indicator of a great movie.

The most brilliant film! The film became a cult classic and had a huge influence on the Western genre. I just recently wrote a review of movies, I used https://papersowl.com/examples/movies/ for this. I can't go a day without watching something. Recently I thought about the fact that there is nothing more worthy of films to watch. The feeling is like everything that is possible I have already seen.

I just bought the movie on DVD last week and I've been watching it continually ever since. My cat Patches loves watching movies also. I must say it takes a few watches to get the whole storyline. Every scene intertwines beautifully with each other. Tuco (played by Eli Wallach) is a great character in the movie who represents both good & evil...even though he's ugly. ;)
