Music advice (Crossposted to MyViciousCircle)

[cyrano]

I'm trying to build a soundtrack for writing this Western/Anime thing.
Right now I'm setting aside some Boiled in Lead, Sunday's Well, what little Ennio Morricone I have on I Western, Alexander James Adams, Nickel Creek, a 'music of the Civil War' CD I found, Greg Edmonson's FF score Qada'an Nachin, some audio snippets from Tombstone and Firefly. I'd like to find some of the music they use in DeadWood. I'd rather not spend a whole lot of money acquiring new music for this, but accidents do happen.
Music mavens, feel free to jump in and tell me what you think.

I'd like to help but what? Western Anime music... I don't think I have much to offer other than some folk or humorous songs.

Mostly I'm focusing on the Western angle. Because I don't know much about Anime. Some Richard Shindell might work, or Cry Cry Cry. I tried the Erasure bluegrass album, but I don't think steel guitar works for me.

I've got some Cry Cry Cry if you'd like it.

I have the album and a few of the live tracks. I just need to listen to them to figure out which ones I can use. Down By the Water I think will be good...

Would you like some of the twangier Seatbelts/Cowboy Bebop tracks? I'm also sort of planning a "country from uncountry places" mix, if you'd like a copy (and maybe this'll get me to do it), and there's not too much overlap. ^_^

I hadn't even thought to check those. Twangier is probably later period than I'd like, but it can't hurt to try them!
And maybe we can work together on that mix--I can get you my bluegrass Erasure, and the country version of 'West End Girls'...
