Ennio Morricone & Peter Tevis - Pastures of Plenty

[lesvance01]

The second song, "Notte Infinita", uses the melody from the carol "I wonder as I wander." John Jacob Niles takes credit, but it was inspired by a girl, named Annie Morgan.

This song--even with the lyrics--is eerily appropriate for The Man With No Name in "Fistful". He comes with the dust, to wreak havoc and bring the gangs to a chaotic end...and then he's gone...with the wind.

Wow, haven't heard this version before! Fantastic!

Love Morricone for film scores but give me Woody's authenticity or Seeger's directness anytime or even Odetta's unsurpassed singing

I've waited years to hear this in full, after just a brief extract on a BBC documentary on Morricone. Thanks very much for sharing it. Not only does it show the genesis of the Fistful of Dollars theme, it also confirms that the choral chant in that movie is "With the wind!" rather than (as I'd thought for about 30 years) "We can win!"

@azowipe1

Exactly what I thought! I only stumbled upon this by chance... have you also heard the song that goes with 'Few Dollars More' by Maurizio Graf (I think) about ' cursed the day that ever I was born' etc. It's odd to hear it to start with but it has grown on me. It's on youtube somewhere

[Climpus]

@azowipe1 Exactly what I thought! ('We can win')

[lesm32]

apparently this is the recording that started morricone's relationship with sergio leone, since the latter was so impressed?

at any rate thanks so much, ive always wanted to listen to this! i love youtube haha

[AGGeiger]

A very unusual version of this great Woody Guthrie song. Ennio Morricone's very distinct style comes through clearly and powerfully. I like it!
