Duel at Diablo(1966) - Bullets And Beans

[43varvara]

Un western bun,cu muzica suprba.

[robharding1957]

just another wonderful entertainment western from the time of plentiful westerns ,,but great family fun,,young and old,

[schallrd1]

@PaulChristenson

A Fistfull of Dollars was released 1964 and A Few

Dollars More in 1965.

[schallrd1]

You can tell that Hefti was inspired by Ennio Morricone.

[wakman11]

The opening with James Garner riding his horse with his rescued white woman to this theme is simply magic it fits brilliantly

[carolinedunstable01]

@wakman11 That opening with Garner rescuing her with the music edited over is one of the best bits of choreography ever. Have it on DVD and just repeated it so much the disc jumps. Final scene with the cavalry & cast leaving is spot on too.

[Louiseaus]

@TheDrpippi or is that littlepeepee - If you are the definition of a punk, I am happy not to be one. Moron. I don't care where people get it from, I am just happy to give it to people who have found it impossible to download.

[Louiseaus]

@TheDrpippi Where?



[Louiseaus]

@TheDrpippi Well if you don't want it, no skin off my nose of course. But rather than being a bit of a smartass, it might be more constructive if you were to suggest to other posters where it  can be downloaded.

[KATOSUBZERO]

12 March 2011: This instrumental music is one of my favorite, but everyone who has heard of the original should listen to one of the greatest pianist in the world Raul DiBlasio from Argentina do his version of this song, "Duel at Diablo".

[msnaruminem]

This is my kind of movie. Anything with savage apaches vs. US. Cavalry

[rohansrider]

Quite possibly James Garner's best film.

[Louiseaus]

If anyone would like the mp3 of this music, email me at loumcp@bigpond.com

[Louiseaus]

@Louiseaus I've really enjoyed sharing this mp3 with people around the world. keep emailing loumcp@bigpond.com if you'd like it won't you, and also let me know if you want the vocal version as well.

[mogarcia99]

[snakewar29]

My Father loved this movie. One of the Greatest westerns of all Time.

[WaPow132]

Inspired the theme to Chang Cheh's One Armed Swordsman

[KlangARTen]

and it stay in my head since 1976... ;)

[stevevandien]

@KlangARTen It's stayed in mind since about 1968:) --

[brillopad6901]

Where could i download this song?

[Louiseaus]

@brillopad6901 Email me at loumcp@bigpond.com and I can send you the mp3

[TheApacus]

Mr. Hefti`s Masterpiece! :))

[SquigPie]

The only thing that I wondered about was the idea of a black man having been a sergeant in the old west, not saying black men aren't capable of that, but wasn't people kinda racist back then?

[623696CAP]

@SquigPie Some, most but in the old west many a lawman was black and a third of cowboys were. By the time this was to have taken place a few young black officers had graduated from West Point.

[SquigPie]

@623696CAP thanks, Did confuse me a little when I watched the movie.

[RomneyGack]

@SquigPie There were buffalo soldiers (black cavalrymen) who served in the West. There were even blacks who served the Confederacy as well as the Union and who fought w/ Indians against the United States.

[Schakel37]

Name of the movie is : Blazing Saddles

[duelatdiablo]

opoioa anevase ayth th tainia einai poly magas..ton eyxaristo...koryfaio western kai koryfaia music... i love sidney poitier...

[nevermore300]

One of my favourite (very underated) Westerns and a great theme tune. Plus the knife cutting through the opening credit screen is a CLASSIC shot. Love this film and it was a good part for Sidney Poitier in a racist America.

[mrezabek1]

Neil Hefti was a genius.

[ab4rereleaseCspray]

Apart from the superb score the film has 2 scenes that have stayed in my memory since the 60's. The crazed Bill Travers on horseback waving his sabre at imaginary opponents and the discovery of Dennis Weaver tied to a wagon wheel. Not forgetting his screams. (Incidentally Weaver deserved credit in taking a role at the time which was so diverse to his "Chester" in Gunsmoke)

[michaelottmar]

for sure one of the best moviethemes a german

[grannydyess]

oh boy was this a great movie! i am not a james garner fan but i enjoyed this.

[jgahsftball]

This is my mothers favorite western of all time,and believe me she has seen many. Awesome performances by Garner & Poitier,great theme song !!

[jgahsftball]

This is my mothers favorite western of all time, and believe me she has seen many. The music is truly great !!

[07031943]

I loved this movie also....but how many bullets and arrows did the captain take before he "bought it"??????

[SgtRock57]

@07031943 LOL! for real!

[RobinStarch]

This and the Jaws theme best ever!!!!!!!!!

[zinzin26jinjin]

いい曲ですね。西部劇映画音楽の名曲です。

[JulieYD]

love the music. great story. that music when she is racing on horse back with her baby is fantastic.

[grannydyess]

a truly great movie. thanks for posting this.

[grannydyess]

a great movie thanks for posting this.

[gerladiant]

thank you for posting this, i have seen the film excellent , the music is brilliant to, love it!

[poolboyinla]

I just saw this movie in HD. It was very good.

[hammerogod]

Great Movie, Great Theme ... Possibly (probably) Hefti's best score.

[Vick2242]

One of the best western movie themes ever!

[grannydyess]

loved this movie. watch it every chance i get!

[borgnine1966]

Der Film ist super....die Musik auch!

[michaelottmar]

eine der besten movie themes

[lorrainegate]

Loved the song and the movie!!

[aplantage]

The soundtrack is available on CD, together with "Horse Soldiers". If it is catalogued under that film, it is sometimes difficult to find ("Horse Soldiers" was often bundled with another film, so make sure you buy the right one).

[petrtchaikovsky]

The film was okay for its time. The soundtrack's title score is probably one of the best ever. Even the other songs are great.

[pe542q]

Enjoyed the film; fell in love with the theme. Some of the finest music that I have ever heard has been movie themes.

jhw

[muffspanker]

One of the best westerns ever..thanks for sharing

[uberpoet2009]

james garners best film role!!!

[plj16]

i got to admit i love dule at deablo

[NullAleph]

One of the great invisible tunesmiths, Neal Hefti was also responsible for (for example) the theme from the 60s TV series Batman ("na na na na nah - BATMAN!!") LOL!! Dang, I do love this music.

[Filosofem2008]

geat movie and great soundtrack!!!!!!

[plj16]

I L-O-V-E DULE AT DEABLO

[LudwigSZiffer]

my favorite western movie since i was a child. where can i get the score? could not find it on amazon or itunes. pls help.

[flyingjb1963]

WOW, this song gets in your head and stays!

[DensAxisC2]

@flyingjb1963 yep.......

[dingane19]

@flyingjb1963 So does the movie. A gritty story of the west that question us all...with no easy answers.

[chawak53]

Great movie, great actors, great music.

D*** but I love the theme music.

[MrWindies]

Is this or is this not one of the best western music scores of all time? On a par with The Magnificent 7 and The Good the Bad and the Ugly.

[MsMaynes]

@MrWindies

You are right. It is superb. It is hypnotic; it makes you feel invincible. It has got to be the greatest western music score ever written!

[MrWindies]

The main actors in this film are James Garner,Sidney Poitier,Bill Travers and Dennis Weaver

[uberpoet2009]

great film, great score!

[uberpoet2009]

sorry i stand corrected!

for god`s sake please tell me im right in that bill travers and sidney poitier was in the movie!!!

[slappy6817]

Both were in the movie.

[supaul04]

Any info on Ralph Bahnsen as the young trooper?

[supaul04]

Absolutely love the music and it adds to the movie. James Garner is a fabulous actor and in TV and movies.

[supaul04]

No it was not bill travers or sidney poitier. The young guy who had an arrow in his hand and rode in the ending with another chap on his right with curly hair.

[supaul04]

What was the actor's (soldier) name who wore the bent hat and was shot in the hand and riding on the horse in the closing of the movie?

[uberpoet2009]

bill travers, who starred in born free

[uberpoet2009]

no sorry, im wrong, it was sidney poitier!!!

[supaul04]

This western and Once Upon a Time in the West with Charles Bronson are my ultimate 2 favourite westerns.

[sabata60]

i have the film the book and the LP love the movie and the music on the lp their is a song that is great never used in the film big shame.come on dvd shops bring out the way west onother classic from the 60s

[judithj1]

This movie is currently available on Hulu

[sabata60]

hi judithj1 i have already go the movie but thanks anyway.

[slappy6817]

Great

[allanhunter1964]

there is a part in this movie where a guy is roasted alive on a wagon wheel that i admit to finding hard to listen to..screams are to authentic!

[plainwain]

That guy's real name is Dennis Weaver

[Zigblat]

There are a couple difference between the theme played at the beginning of the movie and this version. There's a sort of pause in the middle which may have something to do with the credits and the ending is a little different.

The movie is available on hulu.

[Zigblat]

The movie is available now on hulu.

[tubebunny7]

Great. I heard it in part in the movie Carrie and really dug it.

[zeekwolfe]

Moern composers are not allowed to write music like this anymore. The tiny minds at the studios think fifteen year old boys, the average moviegoer, wouldn't appreciate it anyway. Besides, how do you write beautiful music to fit with mindless violence and numbing, gratuitous sex scenes?

[ab4rereleaseCspray]

The late fifties, early/mid sixties was a halcyon period for western movie themes. This is tremendously catchy, but also listen to The Big Country, theme by Jerome Moross; The Unforgiven (the 1960 film, not the later Clint Eastwood production) theme by Dmitri Tiomkin; The Magnificent Seven, and The Scalphunters, both themes by Elmer Bernstein; Hour of the Gun, theme by Jerry Goldsmith. These are all fantastic compositions, and it would be great to have the original versions on a cd compilation

[hammerogod]

As far as I am concerned this is Neal Hefti's best composition.

[hammerogod]

I got very lucky and found the whole soundtrack on Limewire.

[LGScotland1992]

Good fil & excellent music.

James Garner = Brilliant.

[cherylmorris1]

The "guy" who wrote the music for this film was the FANTASTICALLY TALENTED MR. NEAL HEFTI! The theme from Batman was the simplist thing he ever wrote, but he always stated it was the HARDEST thing he ever wrote. Mr. Hefti wasn't used to writing little rock n roll ditties, but fabulous scores or brilliant big band arrangements for some of the most incredible artists of our time. Please take some time to get to know Mr. Neal Hefti. (He just passed away last month). What a huge loss to us all!

[castlequarterboy]

Just finished watching this on TV. Good western and excellent music.

[Louiseaus]

I've just bought a second hand cassette of this soundtrack (yay!) and am having it put on a CD. If anyone would like a copy, please feel free to message me.

[karanmalik1]

I love the music on this, and didn't know they had that. How much to make me a CD?

[Louiseaus]

Hey Karan,

I'd be delighted to make you one - I was lucky enough to get a good second hand cassette off Amazon. All I require is postage costs - why don't you message me privately and we'll swap relevant details :)

[goodbadandguywitgun]

man i love this music dont know why but it makes me think of mash

[NullAleph]

Plus, this was the guy who wrote the 60s TV Batman theme song (na na na na na na BATMAN!!) LOL. Guy's clearly very close to genius.

[zeekwolfe]

Compare this movie music with the junk nowadays...well, there is no comparison. Modern composers have their heads up their asses or they just can't say "no" to the loons that finance and produce pictures. Beautiful and distinctive melodies...forget it. Movie music is now called "wallpaper" would you believe.

[900clubbb]

for a movie made in 1965 it was very violent for its time

a really good western

[donnahide]

man..this movie was made when lots of spagetti westerns were getting into the movie market like storm as if beating up

the US westen's traditon..

So, I have appreciated this movie Duel at Diablo very much especially the material, script of the story was excellent..

In additon, I feel as if the music had been

against spagetti westerns storm for holding

US western's heritage barely..

So the music is very very not only great

but also sad for me..5★S..

[michaelottmar]

this is really a perfect song

[purplecrepemyrtle]

I am from Oklahoma where James Garner is from and I use to know his aunt she resided in a retirement village, super nice lady.

[purplecrepemyrtle]

awesome song!!!!!!!!

[virgsimp]

Raul De Blasio performs a wonderful version of this tune and is availabe on itunes. One of my favorites.

[kotaro1959]

Thank you!

I was able to understand with music of this movie.

[Suepaul04]

I am a James Garner fan and along with this movie and music-the best. Note also that Ralph Nelson as Col Foster is listed as Alf Elson in the sub titles-interesting!

[brickman1955]

Does anybody know if this was ever released on cd.

[Tribter]

Fantastic. My favourite western. This is the best intro title!

[zod65]

Great theme song One of the best I think

[dooktango]

this and the mag seven are two of the best western theme songs by far

[squeaktoy66]

Awesome.
