Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars high expectations fulfilled.......2007-01-16

When I ordered this product it was not available in the States, so I was pleased to find it shipped from the UK. Very worth the bit of extra postage. I played it constantly for the first week I had it. Am now playing it just once per week, but still find the music and arrangements inspired, inspiring and way above the normal selections one finds of Morricone in collections. Top quality all the way.

5 out of 5 stars Great Melodies !.......2005-12-16

Truly the best of Ennio Morricone's music: very exciting, diverse and colorful, this CD is a great value. If you like Morricone's music, you'll probably love Arye Geiman - a yet unknown, but young and promising composer, whose music is also very melodic.

4 out of 5 stars Annoyances mar otherwise fine compilation.......2004-07-07

This is a fine compilation of Morricone's movie themes that contains several tracks for soundtracks that are difficult to find these days (such as "Hamlet" and "Frantic"), as well as his more famous compositions ("The Mission" and the forever repeated "The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly").

All the tracks are original recordings, except one. For some unknown reason, the title track of "For a Few Dollars More" is represented by a substandard arrangement by the Geoff Love Orchestra. Considering that "For a Few Dollars More" is one of those tracks that is not often compiled, finding this version instead of the original was a significant disappointment.

And although it doesn't detract from the music, the track "Chi Mai" is listed variously as being from "The Life and Times of David Llyod George" and "Maddelena." A few quick internet searches revealed it was used in both, as well as "Le Professionel" (which is where I knew it from). It would have been nice to have this little discrepency explained.

5 out of 5 stars The finest work of Ennio.......2001-01-11

Ennio Moricone is one of the finest composer in the industry. His best work is the great soundtrack for "The Mission", where he capture the soul of the south american natives and the european conquers. But, before "The Mission" he created the sound of the western. A great CD for collection.
