This compilation of Ennio Morricone music features twelve re-recordings by the Solisti e Orchestre Del Cinema Italiano, all of which have appeared (in their original forms) in the Quentin Tarantino films Grindhouse: Deathproof, Kill Bill Vol. 2 and Inglorious Basterds. The renditions themselves are impeccable, utilizing the same analogue recording techniques that spawned the originals. While it was smart not to go with
more recognizable fare like the vocal/electric guitar versions of Navajo Joe or The Good, The Bad and the Ugly (both are represented here by their quieter, more orchestral movements), the overall effect seems superfluous, as die-hard fans of both the composer and the director will likely seek out the real thing.
Compilation featuring 12 tracks by the legendary film composer Ennio Morricone that have been used in three different films by director Quentin Tarantino, the films are Inglourious Basterds, Kill Bill Vol. 2 and Grindhouse: Death Proof. Five of the tracks appear in the films but are not included on the soundtracks. The recordings were made this year using Morricone's own musicians and singers and are entirely faithful to the original score. Instead of using digital recording methods valve amplifiers and the old desks were used to perfectly reproduce the atmosphere of the original soundtracks.
