I've heard the term a few times in seperate situations the past few weeks, and it sounds like something I should know, but have no idea what it is.

TIA. [img]smile.gif[/img]

It was a G'N'R Album round about 93 or so. It was named for something that can't be mentioned here though.

Although it is left unsaid in wikipedia.org, Spaghetti Western movies were actually inspired by Akira Kurosawa's samurai flicks, namely Yojimbo (1961), Tsubaki Sanjuro (1962) and perhaps some others. In fact, I've heard that Clint Eastwood himself said that he's basically just imitating Toshiro Mifune, the protagonist in many of Kurosawa's samurai movies.
