Basketti West (RPM Bonus track)

Uploaded .
11
141

Post RPM jammin’. I don’t feel much like cleaning up after RPM. Not yet anyway. I think my little Casio took a beaten and went out of tune. I did this arrangement with just the Casio, guitars and
harmonica, hence the annoying piano and strings.
Fingered percussion ala Casio as well.
The slide guitar is my ever faithful Zippo lighter.

This is based on the music box(watch) shoot out scene from The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly when Clint Eastwood is ready to shoot it out with Lee Van Cleef, and Eli Wallach.
Many of you can tell, I get a lot of influence from these old flicks in some of my songs.
I just love the old Italian western movies. One of
these days I’m going to hit this spaghetti western thing right in the nose and get something good.
For now though, this was fun, and pretty cool.

I like your chill stuff, guy...especially the way this one drew me in gently and then steadily carried me through.

Wowie Zowie!!! I need to watch that again real soon. This tune does that scene all the justice imaginable. Nice zippo slides.

Definitely nailed the spaghetti western theme! Doesn't sound like it needs a bunch of cleanup. In fact, its pretty awesome as-is!

Darn, JS is always first. Sparkly, twinkly and yes, I get the music box reference! Very clever!
