@Natejitsu Although this movie also features a desert scene, with a haunting piano score, one wonders what Ennio would have done with any of the many desert scenes in Lawrence of Arabia. The score which accompanies the desert scene with Tuco and Blondie, fits perfectly with the desolate expanse of this sea of sand, note by note. Really makes you feel the heat, the thirst, and the exhaustion endured by Blondie. What a musician! What a director! What a grand movie!

@MrRoGill I agree. This haunting theme when Angel Eyes rides in with the backdrop of the empty American frontier is just magnificent. It reminds me somewhat of the scene from Lawrence of Arabia, just much much darker.

Morricone is as good as Mozart, but so different

Sometimes the time comes out and you feel your mind floating nowhere... like now.

Film music rarely gets much better than this, one of the greatest pieces of film music ever. Totally out of this world

Aaah ...Angel Eyes
-
@DimebagVision Why? Because this track only accompanies the sequence which introduces us to Lee Van Cleef as the sadistic killer Angel Eyes. Once he dismounts and walks towards the camera with his distinctive facial features ending up in that dramatic profile close up, then that exterior shot comes to an end in time with the music. Music same length as the sequence.

One of the most beautiful pieces of music ever composed, and through the genius of Morricone and Leone it introduces the film's most evil character!



Ennio Morricone is quite possibly the greatest composer ever
