Your Ghost Host Goes West - La Casa Encantada - Show # 12 - Jan. 3 2014

The Haunted House @ KUSF - Show 12 - "A Spaghetti Western" Jan 3 2014 by Casaencantada on Mixcloud

The Haunted House (La Casa Encantada) is a music show on KUSF.org radio in San Francisco. This is the 12th show, aired Jan. 3 2014. We celebrated the New Year paying homage to Spaghetti and Zapata Western film director Sergio Leone (b. Jan. 3 1929), following his filmography from "For a Fistfull of Dollars", "For a Few Dollars More" or "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" to later films like "Once Upon a Time in the West", "Duck, You Sucker!" or "Once Upon a Time in America", and playing music related to these films: from Irish fiddling to Cowboy ballads and everything in between: surf, corridos from the Mexican revolution, Western-inspired reggae, French and Italian Pop and more, including two amazing Spanish renditions of Morricone's famous soundtrack themes to these Spaghetti Westerns.
Join us and learn about the history of songs like La Cucaracha or Adelita!
With Serge Gainsbourg, Rita Pavone, Jim Morrison (Sligo fiddler, not "the other" Morrison), Upsetters, Los Amaya, Esquivel, Lydia Mendoza...

  1. Estoy escuchando este programa otra vez porque la primera vez me perdi unas canciones. Evidentamente elegi el momento menos oportuno para salir del cuarto porque no oi la dedicacion! Gracias! Para celebrar, voy a tomar un dram de algo.
