I think the title of this album should be considered a solid fact. We do all love Ennio Morricone! He's easily one of the best composers of recent times, and hundreds of films would be lost without his music.
Despite not giving a full picture of Morricone's work, i think this is still a great tribute album. The fact that artists from Celine Dion, to Bruce Springsteen, to Metallica, ahve come forward to pay their tributes shows the extent to which Morricone has touched the world.
I found out about this tribute from the Metallica website when they announced they'd recorded their own version of "Ecstasy Of Gold", and I immediately bought it. Ecstasy of Gold, and Bruce Springsteen's "Once Upon A Time In The West" are my favourite tracks on the album, but they all have their strengths. At that, I wouldn't say that any of the artists featured didn't do justice to their song.
However, having said how great this album is, if you're not a fan, or you are not familiar with Ennio Morricone's music, then I wouldn't recommend buying this, as you'll find yourself with a mix-cd of different genres you may not all like.
