Comment:

Workin' on this one for some time now. The genesis of which I couldn't even begin to explain...

Okay, here's the concept (buckle up)...combine spaghetti western soundtrack, middle east psychedelic, traditional islamic folk, traditional country, a bit of countrified rockabilly/hillbilly and a few obscuros...speckle with some favorite Eastwood Western Quotes...narrow down a list of tunes twice this size & work on the sequence for two weeks. And, all this to make a virtual soundtrack to a truly odd cinematic piece that never was. This has turned out to be one of my favorites, so far.

Either way, I hope you all enjoy!

And from his madness there came forth a jewel, whose lustre entranced all that beheld it.How may one comment an a fellow traveller's masterful creation. Such labour, such nuance, such meticulous preparation, such a wonder to behold.And there it is, in written form, with enticing yet infuriatingly small pictorial glimpses. Yes, how may one truly comment without hearing this precious thing, this tantalising lure. For shame...it's like having to view beauty through frosted glass. Thanks a lot. Now I'm sulking like a little girly girl. Hey, as long as you're happy...

I can literally hear this soundtrack coming through my screen... this looks like a crazy, culturally mashed-up and awesome ride. Early MOTW contender!

Bit of a sprawling epic you got going here! Full of eastern promise, and western promise and... ad infinitum.

Oh, no! ANOTHER spaghetti western soundtrack, middle east psychedelic, traditional islamic folk, traditional country, a bit of countrified rockabilly/hillbilly and a few obscuros MIX!!! If I had a nickel for every spaghetti western soundtrack, middle east psychedelic, traditional islamic folk, traditional country, a bit of countrified rockabilly/hillbilly and a few obscuros mix I've seen, I'd have... well, maybe a nickel or so. This is really cool, gnome. The bits of dialog are cool, not to mention the tunes. I'd really like to hear this one. I have a feeling that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.

Dead Man's comment made me laugh, and I agree with him completely. This is stunning. I'm not sure I would have the patience for such a serious undertaking. It's admirable.
