Review: RECOMMENDED
Ennio Morricone's legacy is well known across the world, or at least the world of cinephiles. The legendary film composer is responsible or no less than 400 movie and TV scores (in fact, he's made a few more), with a 100-strong oeuvre of classical compositions to add to that storied back catalogue. Sadly lost last year at the age of 91- unrelated to coronavirus - much of his work is now rightfully returning to the release schedule.

Of course, none of his output can match the music he created to accompany Spaghetti Westerns - Italian made cowboy movies from directors such as another late-great, Sergio Leone, including The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and A Fistful of Dollars. 134 of the finest arrangements from that part of his life are included on this mammoth collector's item, which proves you don't really need visuals to be transported to the wild frontier towns of yesterday.

Review: The Rolling Stones In Mono was first released in 2016 as a box-set charting the megagroup's entire roster of British and American studio albums. Deferring to the original mono playback format for which their music was originally recorded (and thus sounds best with) this monster compilation is a comprehensive look back at the Stones' 1960s heyday - plus their 2016 additional exclusives and rarities album, Stray Cats.
