music in westerns (Reply to this comment)
by Stephen_Murray, in Movies
I'm a major Morricone fan (and once upon a time epined about a disc of his music for westernswww.epinions.com/content_2360747994).
Westerns of the 1950s and 1960s almost all had ballads. If memory serves, Tex Ritter won an Oscar for his song for "High Noon." James Stewart was an accordion player (and sang!) in one Anthony Mann western. Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin sang in "Paint Your Wagon" (which was a musicalMarvin's song even made it onto the pop charts). There are songs in John Ford westerns of the 1940s (one of which has a traditional song's title as the movie's title: "My Darling Clementine")... And the Morricone spaghetti western disc includes one of those moronic songs (something Ringo).

He's still alive but his score for this film alone should've gotten him 50 Oscars.
It sucks that he's never won one and he won't accept an honorary Oscar. If they're going to give him one, they will have to give one to Leone too.

Tragic Morricone didn't get an Oscar for it.

Well... when it comes to Leone. You have to live up to his epic status. Even when mentioning the DVD.
