I haven't heard his score for Bulworth, but he may address hip-hop there...

Robert Hampson has said that Be Here Now from A Gilded Eternity was influenced by the gunfight at the end of The Good, The Bad & the Ugly. Not sure if that's more to do with Leone or whatever s/trk is on that scene.

Still overdosing on Morricone at the moment. Couple of recent finds are "Oceano" and "Trel Nel Mille", two scores that fit together somehow because they're sort of minimalist with a lot of acoustic instruments and folk elements but like folk music from some unknown country (I love that sort of thing).

Greatly enjoyed Nostromo yesterday, a later Morricone gem.

Didn't know Morricone did sound collage/musique concrete-ish stuff too. Awesome.

He did just about everything. So many incredible surprises and innovations tucked away in his scores. I've been starting to think he is the most encyclopedic composer. (Been listening to shot tons of morricone the last couple weeks as it happens)

He gave an interview in one of the papers as he stopped over to do one of his classical gigs. A bit sad really.

"Sacco and Vanzetti" is musically so good but, sweet Jesus, Joan Baez, talk about nails down a blackboard, her voice is possibly my least favourite sound in the history of music.

There should be threads no one should be allowed to revive for fear of scaring the shit out of everyone.

One time someone suggested that before bumping the Old Dogs thread one should bump the Note: Old Dogs Are OK thread
