In the Line of Fire [Explicit Lyrics]

Vibe
Fatal sprays venomous lyrics over a strange brew of West Coast gangster funk and bass-heavy, Eastside-flavored tracks. A flurry of gunfire leads into the potent, banging cut "M.O.B." featuring guest verbals from Freddy Foxx.

Excellence!.......2007-04-22

These recordings range back to 1994, with a number of tracks being from Silva Screen's "Music from the Films of Clint Eatwood" compilation, with Derek Wadsworth conducting the City of Prague Philharmonic.

Those tracks are: "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly", "A Fistful of DOllars", "For a Few Dollars More", and "Two Mules for Sister Sara". "In The Line Of Fire' also appeared on that CD, performed electronically by Mark Ayres.


The next bunch of tracks is from Silva Screen's 1996 compilation, "Cinema Paradise: The Classic Film Music of Ennio Morricone", which included the majority of tracks here such as the extensive The Mission Suite, The Untouchables, Casulaties of War, Once Upon a Time In America, 1900, Chi Mai, Marco Polo, Once Upon a Time In The West (two tracks), Cinema Paradise, and The Good the Bad and the Ugly - Ecstacy of Gold, mostly being conducted by Paul Bateman, with Nic Raine doing some of the conducting duties as well.

Hamlet is from Silva's 1997 "Cinema's Classic Romances" compilation, while "The Thing" is from Silva's 2001 "Essential John Carpenter".

A Fistful of Dynamite - Duck You Sucker is from 2002's Way Out West: Essential Western Film Music Collection Volume Two.

The remaing tracks were newly recorded in 2004 for this release:
Days of Heaven, Exorcist II, Guns for San Sebastian, Moses the Lawgiver, My Name is Nobody, The Five Man Army, The Red Tent, The Men From Shiloh and The Sicilian Clan.

Highly recommended.

"his domain of film scoring is legendary ~ Ennio Morricone".......2004-10-07

Silva America once again has outdone themselves with "Once Upon A Time:The Essential Ennio Morricone Film Music Collection", a double disc collection worth their weight in GOLD! ~ Morricone creates visual moods for each film he scores...action, adventure, mystery, romance, sentimental and suspense...the list could go on.

Ennio Morricone was born in Rome on October 11, 1928...attended the Santa Cecilia Conservatory...worked in various jazz bands, later a staff arranger and composer...an orchestrator in the '50s...scored films in the early '60s, then the WESTERNS and his name became a household word in the film industry ~ a new kind of western was on the horizon and Morricone was commissioned to score "A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS" [1964] for Sergio Leone featuring Clint Eastwood, spaghetti westerns were born ~ next "FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE" [1965] ~ and a bigger budget film "THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY" [1966], again featuring Clint Eastwood, Lee Van Cleef and a third Eli Wallach whose performance was magical to watch on the big screen ~ violence and revenge gives Morricone an opportunity to feature electric guitars, flutes and jew's harp blending with a non lyrical chorus mixed with brass, strings, percussion with full orchestration that simply took your breath away...example is "ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST" [1968], featuring Henry Fonda, Claudia Cardinale, Jason Robards and our hero Charles Bronson the mysterious harmonica player, director Sergio Leone's tribute to the American Western, pulled out all the stops ~ the Western was just a small part of Maestro Morricone's career, in the next paragraph take a gander of just what our icon of film music accomplished.

Our composer didn't stop there as "ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA" [1984], featuring Robert De Niro, James Woods and Elizabeth McGovern, another Sergio Leone film..."THE MISSION" [1986], featuring Robert De Niro, Jeremy Irons and Aldan Quinn, is probably one of Morricone's crowning scores receiving an Academy Award nomination, very haunting and classical genre in substance..."THE UNTOUCHABLES" [1987], featuring Kevin Costner, Sean Connery and Robert De Niro during the Al Capone '30s crime organization, Morricone conjures a powerful and dynamic arrangement of his unmistakable theme..."CINEMA PARADISO" [1988], featuring Phillippe Noiret, Antonella Attili and Pupella Maggio from director Giuseppe Tomatore as he recalls his early childhood, the score immediately captures your heart, so tender and compelling as Morricone can only deliver.

City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra featuring conductors Kenneth Alwyn, Paul Bateman, James Fitzpatrick, Nic Raine, Derek Wadsworth ~ Crouch End Festival Chorus featuring Choir Master David Temple ~ vocals performed by Charlotte Kinder, Marie Kopecka and Jill Washington ~ guitar, percussion and keyboards performed by Gareth Williams ~ all in all did a magnicent job in bringing the music of a composer who wrote for over 250 films, receiving recognition from the industry and fans which was long over-due ~ his work is in constant demand, scoring as many as over a half dozen films as year.

This collection contains an overlay of each cue in Morricone's distinctive style of legendary scoring ~ the man who made this possible, a tremendous asset to every project he undertakes is James Fitzpatrick [producer of the album] ~ symphonic suites with full orchestra fullfilling the "film-score-buffs" cravings for more of the same, just the way we like 'em!

Amazon.com

The film that took the 1989 Special Jury Prize at Cannes, Cinema Paradiso features a promising collaboration between il Maestro Ennio Morricone and director Giuseppe Tornatore. Essentially a bittersweet love letter to the enchantment of the cinema-going experience, "Paradiso" offers the melodic and romantic side of Morricone at his peak. The story line gratifyingly calls for Morricone to musically encapsulate a broad range of historic film music, from the orchestral grandeur of Golden Age Hollywood to the Neopolitan jazz of Rota and Fellini, which he does with typically brilliant panache. Telling fact: the main theme is so memorable it was recently co-opted for a car commercial! --Jerry McCulley

Customer Reviews:

music great but performance weak.......2000-07-01

I love the music of E.Morricone, and bought this disk since it had so many titles that I wanted. But although the songs are great, I found the performances - by the city of prague philharmonic - to be quite weak. There is very little emotion conveyed - and the emotion is what makes E.M.'s music so compelling. Even worse, the performance differs from what you remember in the movies - e.g. the good bad and ugly track had no chorus (no grunts); the mission soundtrack sounds like a symphonic rendition without the catholic power. Stick to the original soundtracks.

Excellent Versions of Classic Themes.......2000-06-28

This CD features new orchestral arrangements of Morricone's most famous themes. It's a very interesting album and even if one prefers to quirky original recordings of his western scores (like I do) it's still well worth a listen. (The only reason I'm giving this Four Stars is because some of the personality of the themes hasn't quite translated to some of the versions on this collection.)

The versions of "Two Mules for Sister Sara" and "For a Few Dollars More" are particularly well presented. However, if you're looking for some of Morricone's original recordings, I recommend you pick up "A Fistful of Morricone."

Il magnificio.......2000-05-25

I haven't heard this album, but I know all the tracks very well. I grew up with Ennio Morricone and as such I know this would be an essential for anyone who is not fully aware of the genius this man has brought to movie scores for four decades now. Check "Estasia del'oro" on this CD to find out what I mean!

This is not original music of Ennio Morricone.......1998-12-19

This cd represent a compilation of various tracks by Ennio Morricone and contains very popular themes. I give only 2 stars, because the music is poor compared to the original version composed by Ennio Morricone.

great sounding music from various films.......1998-08-22

This cd is a great compilation of various tracks by film composer Ennio Morricone. While the music is wonderful, only one of the tracks is from the specific film of Cinema Paradiso (despite the name of this CD). If you are mainly interested in that film, there's a complete soundtrack to it also available at amazon.

Fatal - In The Line Of Fire .......2006-03-19

Fatal's debut album was "In The Line Of Fire" (1998). New Jersey's Bruce Washington got into the Rap game after his friend Kadafi introduced him to 2Pac, and Pac included him in the group Outlaw Immortalz. Fatal made his first appearances as a rapper on Pac's "All Eyez on Me" in 1996. After Pac and Kadafi's deaths Fatal parted way with the other Outlawz upset with how they had signed to Death Row (Going against Pac's Advice)among other reasons. In 1998 he released this eleven track debut album. After a short intro Fatal reps thuglife and being an Outlaw on "M.O.B.". Fatal then delivers the albums first standout with the smooth single "Everyday" feat. singer Antoinette Roberson. Fatal flows confidently on "I Know The Rules" a track where Fatal reps thuglife while tearing into fake thugs and fronting rappers. Mac Mall drops in for a collabration cut called "Outlaws". Another standout has Fatal talking about what its like to live everyday knowing it could it be the last on "What's Your Life Worth". Fatal continues to rhyme whats it like around his way on "Getto Star". My favourite track is the laidback closer "The World Is Changing". Fatals one of those MC's who really has lived his lyrics, for better or worse, following this album he would spend two years in jail, and released a self titled followup in 2002. "In The Line Of Fire" is a solid album worth checking out, a keeper for Outlawz fans.

Great solo Debut - 4.5 stars.......2004-11-15

Despite not being on a huge label and featuring none of his Outlawz buddies, Hussein Fatal delivers a solid and impressive debut. Not as "hard" as I thought it was going to be, it still is very good and impressive. Feature Mac Mall, Mercilless X, ONS, Antoinette Roberson (although most go unlisted) and perhaps a few more. Only has 11 songs with no real weak point, one can easily listen through from start to finish with no need to skip any songs. There is 1 classic, 2 near classics, and 2 are just ok songs. The production is a little different then what I thought it would be, but he adapts well to make it work. Rob Reef Tewlow, Delite, and Steve Pitts all do 2 songs, and Courtney Burgess, Quim, Femi, Baby Paul, D'Anthony Johnson each do 1. A must have for Outlaw fans.

#1 - 9 (has a minute 40 second intro before he raps)
#2 - 10 (Classic)(f/...)
#3 - 8
#4 - 7.5 (f/..)
#5 - 9 (uses MC REn's "If It Ain't Ruff" beat of NWA's "Straight Outta Compton" album)
#6 - 8 (f/ ONS...)
#7 - 9.5
#8 - 7.5

HOT!!!.......2004-08-14

This album is hot! The lyrics on this album are definatly razor sharp and u wont be disappointed with the lyrical part.The only bad thing i see in this cd is some of the songs i just didnt like(only like 2).But i got to say i liked a major majority of the cd even though its only 11 songs long. The quality of the tracks are good and make up for the shortness of the cd.If u are a Outlawz fan u better scoop this cd as soon as possible and then u will realize how talented Fatal really is. Hes got to be the best out of all the Outlawz no doubt even though some come close to Fatals skill they cant compare.Fatal hussein has what is takes to go big he just aint got the hype thats all these other weak radio rappers got and if he had some bomb beats he would undoubtly be seen as one of the best rappers today.Songs like M.O.B., Friday,Times wastin, and Whats ya life worth definatly show Fatal's lyrical skill and make this album worth buying.Don't buy this cd if u are looking for tupac or any of the other outlawz cuz it aint got much of them on it, matter of fact none of tupac. If ur lookin for a hot rappers whos been around for a while and a dam good cd,then purchase this album

Dissapointing debut from Outlawz member.......2004-01-17

I was always looking in stores trying to get this one so when I saw that u could buy a used copy I litterally jumped on it...

But when I put in the cdplayer I was very dissapointed , First of all on some songs it sounds like a 3-year old made the beats they sound really cheap.
And on almost every track FATAL sounds uninspired...

This was even more dissapointing than SNOOP DOGG's "Da Game Is To Be Sold"...

Of All Outlaw related albums I have heard this is the worst... Go take another listen at Tupac's albums instead of buying this, or perhaps buy OUTLAWZ - NOVAKANE instead

"In The Line Of Fire" Review.......2003-11-10

As the stand-out member of Tupac Shakur's "Outlawz", Hussein Fatal seemed destined for big things but following his mentor's death and his subsequent departure from the group, Fatal found himself in career limbo. On his solo debut off of Relativey, Fatal was hoping to establish himself as a major contendor in the rap game and do it all by his lonely. Unfortunately, he fell a few steps short. While die-hard Outlaw fans enjoyed it, this album did not quite live up to many people's expectations and the dismal sales figures didn't help matters either. While cuts such as "Friday", "Everyday", and "Take Your Time" made for decent music, they just didn't provide incentive enough to keep this one in the CD player on a regular basis. The same Fatal who blazed the mic on tracks like "Made N--gaz" and "When We Ride" just doesn't seem to make the same impression without his infamous cohorts behind him. This isn't to say that Fatal doesn't have what it takes as a solo act but let's just say, he didn't quite find his niche on this one. If you love the Outlawz, you're gonna want to add it to your collection but anyone else may want to hold off on dropping some dollars on this one.

The Best Blues after BB,.......2005-08-23

I just learned of Robin after seeing his name on some CD's he produced for Bryan Ferry, Whom I love! Robin has been my brothers
favorite for years but I never listen to his music, for many years
I could of enjoyed this fantastic artist's music, I have a lot of
catching up to do!!!!

What if you had never heard of Robin Trower ?.......2005-07-31

This is a fine release.

It's not a sellout.
It's not a copout.

It IS a stellar guitarist of the 1st order on his musical quest.

This has excellent songs, in a modern format.

Sure, the guitarwork is present.

Davey Pattison is the best vocalist for Trower, this side of James Dewar (now deceased).

Glen Letsch is on bass. So the bass is brighter, then the older material.

This release has some great songs : Climb Above the Rooftops, Turn the Volume Up, which rock in the best, Trower style.
The beautiful , slow, If You Really Want To Find The Love, gives us the very soulful side of Trower's music.

Jimi Hendrix had more commonality, then sounds with Robin.
Hendrix felt that many fans stopped evolving past Foxey Lady.

Robin Trower has fans who never crossed - The Bridge Of Sighs.

AWESOME TROWER CD.......2004-09-20

I am a TROWER nut and take offence at the negative reviews. If all his CD's have to sound alike to please some of his older fans, so be it but don't knock this CD. Yes it is different, yes it has certain 80's flavours about it and yes it misses JAMES DEWAR, but like all his other output, it is still quality rocking blues. TROWER is such a talented guitarist that even his mediocre output ( PASSION ) is still of the highest standards and contains a number of outstanding tracks. This one differs from his 70's material in that it is more POP / ROCK than BLUES / ROCK, but most of these tracks are as good as it gets in this genre and TROWER as always plays some brilliant solos. The vocalist is very good, even if he isn't up to the DEWAR standard ( WHO IS??????) and the tunes are mostly very catchy and energetic. If you are a TROWER fan, accept the different offerings and marvel at the breadth of his style and talent.

Victim of the 80's.......2004-04-04

After recently purchasing this album, not having ever heard of it, I was hoping to hear something familiar from days past from the guitarist that has influenced my playing more than any other artist, but to my surprise this did not resemble anything that I could identify with. Those of us old enough to remember the 80'S realize they were the worst of times for music and I realized that maybe RT was just having to go with the flow on this one! I will say that on a couple of tracks there are some great guitar solos that I found myself skipping to and for those who enjoyed the 80'S style of music would probably like this album.

Trower Adrift.......2004-03-17

I bought this CD several weeks ago thinking it was more new music by Robin Trower after seeing it listed on this site as having been issued in January 2004. Oops, that's a reissue folks. I have been a Trower fan since he played with Procol Harum and had never heard of this CD. And after listening to it a half dozen times, I understand the reasons for its obscurity.
This is not the Robin Trower I've known and loved for years. This is a Robin Trower trapped in the worst musical cliches of the 80s. Now some folks are going to think this is a fabulous CD and those folks are the same ones who kept bands like Foreigner and Styx in business during that musically benighted decade. If those bands are to your taste, you are going to love this.
In the Line of Fire is archetypical 80s music, with its tell-tale corporate rock sound and the lame chorus of backing vocals so typical of that time. Its pretensions are to power rock, but the reality of the music is purely formulaic. Fans weaned on Trower's early material are probably not going to like this at all.
The final two cuts save the CD from being a complete waste of money and vinyl. Let's Turn This Fight Into a Brawl is a great, hard-driving rocker and Climb Above The Rooftops is a searing blues number that explodes with savage licks on Trower's guitar.
I am of course disappointed by the overall quality of the music for it shows Trower to be seriously adrift. Old-time Trower fans might want to skip this and pick up the redeeming new Living Out Of Time instead.
