All the music you associate with westerns came from the same composer. A friend played me an album of his music and all the now-tropey hits were there. I don't remember the composer's name, but it shouldn't be difficult to find. Just blew my mind that it was all one person.
Ennio Morricone
Music buff, take a bow.
He was (sadly passed away) a genius in the movie industry! More that 400 movies (including Hateful 8, where Tarantino finally managed to have his original score - and won an Oscar).
