The R&b Love Collection 2007
Great tracks, flow well together, easy listening
Just afew songs I didn't like.
Per Un Pugno Di Dollari (A Fistful Of Dollars) - Ennio Morricone - Soundtrack
A classic Morricone effort that contains all the trademarks that made him popular
Suspenseful music not as interesting and a certain stylishness still finding its place
Original Sin - Pandora's Box
stirring lyrics, wonderful music, operatic rock anthem
too many ballads
Once Upon A Time In The West - Soundtrack
A landmark Morricone score, an utter pleasure from beginning to end, a masterpiece
It's an old score, so it may not have the best sound quality on the planet
