We kick off 2020 with the 5th release in the L’uomo dell’armonica series, dedicated to the historical leader and founder of Beat Records Company Publishing Group, harmonica player Franco De Gemini.
Dear Franco passed away in July 2013, leaving an enormous void in our daily life, but he keeps on living through immortal musical performances that connoted his long career. is time we selected his collaborations with Maestro Ennio Morricone, with whom he’d worked many times as soloist, above all we must mention Once Upon A Time In e West (Sergio Leone, 1968). A cool selection for highlighting the stylistic measure of the evolution both for the composer and the performer, passing through lm music milestones, some of which have long since gone missing from the market. Including Per Per Un Pugno Di Dollari, Il Buono, Il Brutto, Il Cattivo, C’Era Una Volta Il West, Faccia A Faccia, Sette Donne Per I MacGregor, L’alibi and many more, the scores in which the contribution of the harmonica player to the wonderful Maestro’s music was iconic. By the end of the tracklist, we o er again the ghost track released through our 50th year Once Upon A Time in the West edition featuring the studio sound tests by Franco De Gemini during the recording session of that soundtrack. Available in a slim jewel case with an external obi, with mastering by Claudio Fuiano and Daniel Winkler, graphic layout and liner notes by Daniele De Gemini.
Slim jewel case with obi and maxi inlay. Durations mentioned on maxi inlay.
Bonus track 26 is not listed on maxi inlay, the track title is taken from the label site.
