Back in November, we reported that producer extraordinaire Danger Mouse and Italian composer Daniele Luppi were at work on Rome, a spaghetti western-inspired project featuring contributions from Jack White and Norah Jones. Now, the resulting LP has a release date: May 17, via Capitol Records, in the U.S. The tracklist is below.
The album was recorded at Rome's Forum Studios (which was founded in part by composer Ennio Morricone), with the assistance of musicians that performed Morricone's original scores for spaghetti western classics The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly and Once Upon a Time in the West. White sings on three songs on the record ("The Rose With the Broken Neck", "Two Against One", and "The World"), and so does Jones ("Season's Trees", "Black", and "Problem Queen"). Soprano singer Edda Dell'Orso (who also contributed to the music for The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly) is also featured on the LP. Music video director Chris Milk has been named the "Visual Director" for the project.
