If you are new to the Slept On series, this is where I highlight music that I believe fell under the mainstream radar and Rome is definitely one of those cds. As a concept album by my favorite producer Danger Mouse and Italian composer, Daniele Luppi, Rome enlists the vocals of Norah Jones and Jack White to score a ficionalized spaghetti western and succeeds brilliantly in every way.
Explaining the concept of the album
Two Against One ft. Jack White
Black ft. Norah Jones
Season's Trees ft. Norah Jones
I actually love this album. I bought it off of Amazon as soon as it was released. Being bipolar, I relate to too much of it though. LOL!
