Morricone later reworked it into the title theme of the famous Spaghetti Western movie "A Fistful of Dollars" directed by Sergio Leone and starring Clint Eastwood . Later they continued to collaborate on a number of recordings. Tevis is credited with singing the lyrics of songs on the soundtracks of several Spaghetti Western movies, including: "A Gringo Like Me" from the film Gunfight at Red Sands "Lonesome Billy" from the film Guns Don't Argue "Per un Pugno di Dollari" Since the 1970s Tevis also produced audio recordings designed to train different families of songbirds to talk.
