Ennio Morricone – For a few dollars more (Limited ‘Crystal’ Clear Vinyl)

In the previous year 1965, “A Fistful of Dollars” by Sergio Leone was a huge success, and had greatly increased the popularity of the ‘spaghetti western’ genre. With the two lead actors Clint Eastwood and Gian Maria Volonte “For a Few Dollars More” is the natural progression of that movie, and the addition of the third major star – Lee Van Cleef – a trio that made history in another Sergio Leone masterpiece.

Ennio Morricone’s music is equally important. The Maestro here chooses a ‘poor’ registry, consisting of folk instruments such as ocarina, Jew’s harp and chimes, respectively used to accompany the entrance of the three main actors. There is as usual, the contributions of Alessandro Alessandroni and his Cantori Moderni choir, for an incredibly exciting vocal climax.

This edition sees the eight tracks of the original score in a brand new layout.
