I've never heard of Long Days of Vengeance. And Return of the Seven is largely a reprise of Elmer Bernstein's music for The Magnificent Seven. As for Django, the music as exemplified by the theme song, is just awful. Better choices- Victor Young's score for Shane. Also, Young's music for Johnny Guitar. And The Big Country, by Jerome Moross. There are plenty to choose from, classic films with first-rate scores.
Really only 7 westerns. Going for 2 from the Magnificent Seven franchise and 3 from the 'Man with No Name' series took up space that could have gone to 'High Noon', 'Stagecoach', and "Dances With Wolves'. (Those are just 3 of many that were missed.)
Going with the second Magnificent Seven theme was lame, but each of the three "Man with no name" themes is a great and classic western theme in its own right.
9 of 10. I got Fistful of Dollars confused with For a Few Dollars More. I'm in my 60s and watch old Westerns all the time. Currently watching season 7 of Wagon Train actually, which will be followed by Bonanza season 8.1. Your next one should be TV Western themes! Lots of great ones there too, Lone Ranger, Cisco Kid, Big Valley, Bonanza, High Chaparral, Have Gun Will Travel, Rawhide, etc.
You have good taste Sir! There are some of these great shows I remember well, some were on a little before my time and some were on different channels. Until I was 12 all we got was CBS, in Black and White. So there were a lot of Fantastic Westerns I never got to see. So I am trying to collect as many as I can. Some I have complete now, others have 1 season at a good price and are outrageous afterwards. So I get what I can afford. Complete I have; Shane Deadwood Daniel Boone Wanted Dead or Alive Branded Border town Alias Smith and Jones Wild Wild West Rawhide Big Valley Have Gun Will Travel Young Riders Guns of Will Sonnet Centennial Hawkeye and the Last of the Mohicans Hawkeye Most of; 1 and a half seasons of 2 of Laredo 3 seasons of High Chaparral Some of; 5 full seasons of Gunsmoke 4 full seasons and 3 half seasons of Bonanza Most of Whispering Smith in collections 3 seasons of Wagon Train Only 1 season; Virginian Cheyenne Laramie Jim Bowie Bat Materson Magnificent 7 Collections of; Lone Ranger Cisco Kid Buffalo Bill jr. Rifleman Wyatt Earp Annie Oakley Brave Eagle Plus, over 500 Western movies. John Wayne has 2 subsections in my movie book, Westerns and Non-Westerns, the only individual with his own subsections. I have Westerns starting at Tom Mix, William Hart, and Harry Carey sr. all the way to now. From Silent to Spaghetti! LOL
I got eight. But I have to say that on some, the countdown was almost over before the music had really started. But, it still brought great memories of sitting watching westerns with my dad back in the sixties. They don’t make ‘em like they used to
Wonderful, but how could you omit Big Country (1958). by Jerome Moross, or the 1952 Iconic theme from High Noon. "Do Not forsake Me Oh My Darling". Glad to hear How the West Was Won. from 1962, and to see the Cinerama Trailer. showing the scope of the production. Awesome. It might have been fun bringing Rossini into the act, by using the opening to The Lone Ranger. (1956)
I agree with others here as (The Big Country) has possibly the best theme music as others such as John Wayne's (The War Wagon) (Big Jake) and (El Dorado)... someone has a fixation on Clint Eastwood
@@jakefromstatefarm1100 They are both fairly obscure unless you really know your spaghetti westerns. They were the two I missed as well. Long Days of Vengeance was a spaghetti western retelling of the Count of Monte Cristo.
The same ones I missed as Django I had never heard of before it appeared on a best westerns of a year video and Long Days of Vengeance, I had never heard the music or of the movie till it showed up here. I was well into my teens when most of the Shi, I mean Spaghetti Westerns first showed so these two can hardly be called Classic.
@Gary Mesched Congrats on your birthday. I’m a wee bit older, and we got our first tv with rabbit ears around ‘52. Black and white and the stations signed off at 10pm!
You need to have more American movies. Django doesn't count. I don't think it ever was released here. Why no Rio Bravo, Yellow Rose of Texas, Gunfight at the OK Corral (Burt & Kirk), They Died With Their Boots On, High Noon, Johnny Guitar, and so many more.
Love this. And I missed 3. Technically 2 2.5. There were 2 movies I didn't even know. and 2 that I had 2 titles in mind and didn't settle on an answer in time on 1 and settled just in time on the other.
I've never heard of Long Days of Vengeance either and I don't think Django is a classic. I got all of the rest, but the theme from The Big Country should have been included.
6/10. I missed Django and How The West Was Won. I chose A Few Dollars More instead of A Fistfull Of Dollars, and I 've never heard of Long Days Of Vengence. I'll be looking that up on TH-cam. As far as what's more worthy of mention, or doubling up on the Magnificent 7, or including all three films from the Dollar Trilogy goes, the films included here are the films chosen by the person making the post. It was their choice. Who are we to criticise?
Number 7 is the music from the scene in the first Magnificent Seven after Brynner and McQueen leave the Indian to be buried in the white cemetery. Never saw “Return of the Seven” and the same music may have been used.
Nonsense….. Obviously you only acknowledged Eastwood westerns, you could have used just The Good, The Bad and the Ugly then added in one Wayne, one Jimmy Stewart (could have killed 2 birds with one stone with The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance)…Kirk Douglas (Last Train from Gun Hill) or his best: Lonely Are The Brave…. You ignored so many for multiple Eastwood choices. I have nothing against Eastwood, like him too, but your list is off center with ignore those westerns mentioned above and many others.
2:07)What came first? The movie or the Marlboro commercial? (Terrence)Steve McQueen owned the Winchester .44-40 "Mare's Laig". He did not "know the right people" in NY City. He was arrested on a weapons charge.They must have gotten really pissed off when McQueen had to be released. He had an ATF(now ATFE)license. 60+ years I have suspected that the NY CITY PD uses NYPD to give people the idea that they are the STATE police.
What was the Western where a young gun fighter and a naive fellow are crossing on a foot swinging bridge over a gully at a general store location? The gun fighter pretends to recognize the pistol the naive guy is carrying and asks to see it. As the naive fellow pulls it from his holster, the gun fighter draws his pistol and kills the naive guy. To all the people looking on, it appears a legitimate gun fight took place. What was this movie? (Been trying to recall it for years).
@@gerrychapman I see that movie came out in 1971. I’m pretty sure the one I’m trying to recall came out before that date. However, I could be confused on the timeline. So the only logical thing to do, would be to watch McCabe and Mrs. Miller again! (Perfect excuse!) 😉
@@gerrychapman Wow... thanks Gerry! I just watched the whole movie again. That’s the exact scene I was thinking of. It stuck in my mind all these years as a particularly brutal representation of the “old west” (at least by Hollywood standards, at the time). Thanks for getting me straightened out on which movie it was. 👍👍
Good Grief!! How old are - 10?? There is so much great movie theme music out there, but I guess you were just too damn LAZY to hunt for it! Check out some of the other comments from Western Movie fans who actually know what they are talking about!
Classic westerns my ass! where is " High Noon', The Searchers, "Red River", "Lonesome Dove", "The man who shot Liberty Valance"," The OxBow incident", and so much more. Your list is lame.

Hiyaaa cowboys!
Plse tell me the name of the theme in promo...looks like the big country theme but its different
Some of these have no business being called "classic".
Yep, …..spit

Add Sons of Katie Elder, Silverado, and Cat Ballou for some of the most iconic theme songs in westerns.
Two themes weren't themes at all and one theme from an obscure spaghetti western no one has ever heard of . Well done.
I only got that one because I have it in a Spaghetti Westerns collection.
I wouldn’t classify “Raindrops…” as the movie theme. It was played during a scene is all.
IT'S FROM SPIDERMAN 2 !!
IMO the themes to “The Big Country”, “Breakheart Pass” and “The Comancheros” are more worthy of inclusion here than others.
Vera Cruz?
@Steve Gee I put it on par with How the West Was Won.
Totally agree
@@almeisam Yeh! HTWWW theme is high on the list.
I think this young guy doesn't know many classic westerns!
Really only 7 westerns. Going for 2 from the Magnificent Seven franchise and 3 from the 'Man with No Name' series took up space that could have gone to 'High Noon', 'Stagecoach', and "Dances With Wolves'. (Those are just 3 of many that were missed.)

Long Days of Vengeance? Hardly a classic Western. Neither is Django for that matter.
Never heard or seen it and Terence hill will always be trinity for me at least
I missed Long Days of Vengeance and Django. Never saw them and probably never will. Neither are "Classic" westerns.
Same here.

The music is great but Eli Wallach is the best character in my opinion.
It was Tuco's story, Blondie was just a supporting character.
@@fearlessfosdick160 the same in The Magnificant 7,
Wallach was the oldest member of the main cast. He outlived all of them except Robert Vaughan.
I got 8 but without the film clips I doubt I would have done as well. Did get the two Dollar themes the right way round.
Long Days of Vengeance was the only one I missed
Got all but that Lobg Days of zVengence. Never heard of that movie.
Sons of Katie Elder? Shane? Big Country? The Professionals?
Interesting & entertaining. "The Big Country" was a major omission. However, I think I heard a tiny, tiny fragment of it in the opening section.
And so was High Noon.
8/10.🐎🐎🐎

no John Wayne movies? Rio Bravo and El Dorado both had very distinct music themes to them.
Wild bunch

8 of 10. Thank you.
I can't belive they didn"t play the theme from " Shane ".
Day ain't over yet.
A lot of spaghetti being served in this western diner...
I am just devising activities for Care Homes. This is so perfect for American ideas for Thanksgiving I could hug you!! Thank you so much!!!!!!!!😄🤩
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I’ve had the tune for magnificent seven stuck in my head for 3 days and I couldn’t remember what film it was but now I know. 😂
6/10 a few I have never heard of.
I agree with others here as (The Big Country) has possibly the best theme music as others such as John Wayne's (The War Wagon) (Big Jake) and (El Dorado)... someone has a fixation on Clint Eastwood
John Wayne’s Sons of Katie Elder theme is just haunting.
I think the theme For a Few Dollars More is the best of them all.
Likewise - it hits all the emotions.
Lottsa fun. Thank you
Thank you
8 out 10! Love me some westerns!!
I missed 2 # 7 Long Days of Vengeance and #10 Django. The reason. I never saw them.
Bingo! Same ones I missed as well.

Especially the ennio morricone
6 out of the 10, & 6 of the 5 I’ve seen (*in the voice of Commandant Lassard* many many years ago)
You have to grow up in the 50’s-60’s to know most of these, which I did.
@Gary Mesched Congrats on your birthday. I’m a wee bit older, and we got our first tv with rabbit ears around ‘52. Black and white and the stations signed off at 10pm!

Django doesn't count. I don't think it ever was released here.
Why no Rio Bravo, Yellow Rose of Texas, Gunfight at the OK Corral (Burt & Kirk),
They Died With Their Boots On, High Noon, Johnny Guitar,
and so many more.
Great quiz - well done !!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!
Love this. And I missed 3. Technically 2 2.5. There were 2 movies I didn't even know. and 2 that I had 2 titles in mind and didn't settle on an answer in time on 1 and settled just in time on the other.
Got most of them, but surprised that neither the LoneRanger or Have Gun will Travel made the list. or Kung Fu.
I got all but one
Only 6 I hang my head in shame, Tho I got Django ( Fave Western ever), the Dollar 3 & Both Mag 7s so not all bad :-)
5
I've never heard of Long Days of Vengeance either and I don't think Django is a classic. I got all of the rest, but the theme from The Big Country should have been included.
Don't forget High Noon.
Aren't you just a bit "Sergio Leone" happy with your choices?
I missed only two. Pretty good for a city boy but I do like westerns and movie music
6/10. I missed Django and How The West Was Won. I chose A Few Dollars More instead of A Fistfull Of Dollars, and I 've never heard of Long Days Of Vengence. I'll be looking that up on TH-cam.

Only 2 I didn't recognise, the rest were easy.. as I have them on DVD
i got 2 ,,, good bad and ugly + magnficent severn ,3 ive never heard of
Too many sounded alike and could have been interchangable, how about real classic like Duel in the Sun or The Big Country, both outstanding!
Or Hefti's Duel at Diablo.
Number 7 is the music from the scene in the first Magnificent Seven after Brynner and McQueen leave the Indian to be buried in the white cemetery. Never saw “Return of the Seven” and the same music may have been used.
You're cheating: we must recognise the movie by the music! And no John Wayne? That's - I try to be polite - unusual...
Yes Cristina. Wayne was in “The Comancheros” which has a much better theme song than others here.
Big country not here ??? But can't say anything about ennio morricone they are fantastic scores
You do realize that there were and are American made Weterns?
I knew the first one. And most them. Guess I didn't know how to play.
only one thing: it would be nice to see a composer credit. thanks.
Seriously?
Not 1 John Wayne move on this list?
Wow
Sorry :) so many great movies to pick from!

@@marieoleary8438 : Well said Marie.

Two of those aren't "classic westerns"!
about 7, i think, but would have been fewer without the visual tip-offs, do it again with out visual help
No. Keep the visuals but suggest Adrian turns his head away from the screen.
