Ennio Morricone: Quentin Tarantino Movies

by Ennio Morricone, Solisti E Orchestre Del Cinema Italiano

Overview

This compilation of Ennio Morricone music features twelve re-recordings by the Solisti E Orchestre Del Cinema Italiano, all of which have appeared (in their original forms) in the Quentin Tarantino films Grindhouse: Deathproof, Kill Bill Vol. 2 and Inglorious Basterds. The renditions themselves are impeccable, utilizing the same analogue recording techniques that spawned the originals. While it was smart not to go with more recognizable fare like the vocal/electric guitar versions of Navajo Joe or The Good, The Bad and the Ugly (both are represented here by their quieter, more orchestral movements), the overall effect seems superfluous, as die-hard fans of both the composer and the director will likely seek out the real thing. ~ James Christopher Monger
