Avatar 📖 4:51pm
Mr Fab:

the ubiquity of "The Good, The Bad And The Ugly" theme can make us forget how utterly unique it was - whistling, electric guitar, grunting, strings...NO ONE was writing anything like that.

@ hysterica - that White Cloud Orchestra version was a pretty radical interpretation.
