  1. The Italian word "sprezzatura" is one of my favorites.

    It means "a practiced nonchalance." Or, put more plainly, "working hard to make difficult things look easy/effortless."

    Spaghetti western legend (and one of my favorite actors) Terence Hill (real name, Mario Girotti) is spezzatura in human form.

    He also makes me very, very hungry for a plate of beans...if you got the money.

  3. LA OBRA CUMBRE DEL WESTERN PARA LA REVISTA DEL BRITISH FILM INSTITUTE.
    Antes de que el género empezara a mirarse con nostalgia, el western fue una maquinaria de sueños que Hollywood utilizó para fundar su propio mito.

    Wall of Voodoo, “Call of the West” 1982

    #WallOfVoodoo cultivated an air of mystery - their album covers, their very name! - and the subject matter of their songs, #StanRidgway's arch vocals, the music itself were always a little offbeat and angular in a way that made it easy for them to ride the #NewWave to us, via #EnnioMorricone #SpaghettiWestern.

    This album was their commercial peak. I was going to feature a track you're less likely to have heard, but in the end had to go with "Mexican Radio." How could I resist the couplet “I wish I was in Tijuana/Eating barbecued iguana”?

    Another favorite of mine is their oddly compelling cover of "Ring of Fire" from their debut eponymous ep. You may have also heard frontman and artistic lead Ridgway on "Don't Box Me In" from #StewartCopeland's soundtrack for the film adaptation of #SEHinton's Rumblefish, and he continues to release solo music via #bandcamp.

  10. Our second stop in this new trip to Italy brings the gringos from Film Seizure to the Mexico border where a man who drags a coffin behind him lays down a LOT of gunfire in 1966's Django!

  11. Just watched Lucio Fulci's Massacre Time and it really made me wish he had done more crazy westerns. It got pretty much everything I like in a good spaghetti western with some bonus Fulci-isms. (No eye-gouging though.)
