Navajo Joe Soundtrack *MINT Original 1966 Morricone Soundtrack LP . USA issue. Ennio Morricone credited as Leo Nichols. Ennio Morricone is beloved for his wholesale reinvention of the western film score, combining operatic melodies, Italian pop and bizarre instrumental innovations. Many of his scores for Sergio Leone's 'spaghetti westerns' have become classics not just of the genre, but the whole of film music. The character of Joe is an Indian brave (Burt Reynolds) who slays dozens of bandits in order to obtain 'a dollar a head' from white townsfolk needing protection. Subtlety is not the point of director Sergio Corbucci: the story is a model of a quick-moving, non-talky 'B movie' plot, with copious action driven by the outstanding music. In addition to the 'Navajo Joe' main theme, Morricone also provides a recurring piece of percussive action and a rapturous love theme for Joe's attachment to a half-breed maid (Nicoletta Machiavelli ).
