Recycling Of SW Film Soundtracks

I seem to remember “Django Prepare A Coffin” using music from Morricone’s “Bullets Don’t Argue”.

Hey guys there is a nice music in the django 2 1987 trailer…but that is not on the ost…lol

You really like that music :slight_smile: .

hahahahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaa

So the choirmistress and I are tucking into the best curry Sheringham has to offer, which I have to say was jolly good (and coming from near Bradford that’s saying summat) - and my ears prick open - did I just hear a tiny snippet of a very recognisable spag tune in an otherwise bollywoodish bit of snog-nonsense duet-ty type muzic?
The choirmistress confirmed I was not having one of my divine aural hallucinations - so… all thought of my finishing my Lamb Achar were put on hold and the waiter summoned. Since said tune had finished and was on a random loop, and my explanations including the word spaghetti,this only added to a minor linguistic and cultural confusion that was unfolding - it seemed that I may never yet hear this again without devoting myself to starting a search through the 12,000 or so Indian films that exist. :o
But we persevered (the waiter realised I was not going to make his job of serving others easier until it was found), and although not an actual ‘lift’ - it is too close for coincidence…

Here ‘tis…


20 seconds worth around the 2.20 mark - and jus’ look at the snowy love theme elsewhere in the clip… hmmmm? :slight_smile:

Did I notice some similarity/crossover between Django and A Bullet for the General?

Im talking about the wacky music accompanying the Mexican banditos as theyre riding theyre horses.

Sounded same/similar to me. Both released in '66? Which came first I wonder.

But then again a lot of A Bullet for the General’s music seems to be influenced by other westerns.

You’re right…i’ve seen that, too :wink:

Django was much earlier.

Bacalov tracks from Django and /or A Bullet For The General tend to pop up in other Bacalov scores, sometimes the tracks are slight variations.
