"There's just one kind of man that you can trust,

that's a dead man, or A Gringo Like Me."

(1963)  A Gringo like me - Duello nell Texas - Gunfight at Red Sands

A very brief glimpse into the music of Italian composer Ennio Morricone, who lived until 91, composing  over 500 film scores.
In 2016 he won the Oscar for Best Original Score for The Hateful Eight 

Morricone teamed up with Tarantino for The Hateful Eight - this was his first Western score in 40 Years.
(2016) L’Ultima Diligenza per Red Rock 


Morricone’s score, also re-using work from the 70s and 80s, plundering the soundtracks of horror movies The Thing and Exorcist II.

        (2017) Kill Bill Volume 1 - Death Rides a Horse, from (1967) Death Rides a Horse.

        (1964) A Fistful of Dollars 

        (1966) - The Ecstasy of Gold, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

* Famously used in that movie's climax. While officially part of that film's score, it has been used in various other films, tributes, and famously as the intro to Metallica concerts since 1983.
