Danger Mouse can morph anything and make it brilliant just like his fabled Grey Album (2004) made clear, and he does it again in an unlikely pairing with Italian composer Daniele Luppi in Rome—a parlay of spaghetti western-tinted chiaroscuro pop that transcends homage altogether. Norah Jones makes appearances (“Black,” “Problem Queen”) as does fellow polycollaborator Jack White (“The Rose With The Broken Neck”), but this album is stolen by the likes of Cantori Modern, the original choir on the soundtrack to The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. Yeah, it’s that kind of party.

Italian soundtracky twang, strings, and pointy bass. – The Man of the Hour, Every Hour, San Francisco

Legendary producer Danger Mouse and Italian composer Luppi have reunited the original musicians from the scores of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and Once Upon a Time in the West for this homage to Italian film music. Phenomenal - must be heard!
