Ennio Morricone, the Italian composer whose atmospheric scores for spaghetti westerns and some 500 films by a Who's Who of international directors made him one of the world's most versatile and influential creators of music for the modern cinema, died on Monday in Rome. He was 91.

I have a pinball game - The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" that plays that song and a montage of other songs from his Western soundtracks.  Love that game.

RIP and may God have mercy on his soul.

He also composed one of the best horror scores of all time.  RIP.

I was waiting for a mission, and for my sins, they gave me one.
