Big Boss Sound
The Loafer Rides Again
"Every gun makes its own tune", as Clint Eastwood quoted in The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly (1966). The year is now 2024
and on this new
album Nasser fires his Winchester 1866 "Yellow Boy" (Clint Eastwwoods gun) thirteen times and each tune is a direct hit.
It's long been a tradition with Jamaican artists to write western cowboy themed songs and use wild west imagery. The
Upstetters with 'For A Few Dollars More', 'Clint Eastwood', 'Big John Wayne', 'Return Of Django'. Prince Buster with his
album 'The Outlaw' featuring 'Cincinnati Kid', Jackie Mittoo and Harry J's Allstars did 'Hang 'Em High', Baba Brooks did
'Magnificent 7' and Laurel Aitken, who Nass worked with with The Loafers, had 'Jesse James', the list goes on. For Nass
it was three movies 'Fistful of Dollars', 'For A Few Dollars More' and 'The Good, The Bad And The Ugly' that inspired
these recordings. All three films directed by Sergio Leone and starring Clint Eastwood, but the reason they stood out
from all the other cowboys movies of the time, was the epic soundtrack by Ennio Morriconne. It was without doubt the
reason they were elevated to the three best cowboy movies of all time.
