This is the complete soundtrack of Due marines e un generale, the last Buster Keaton screen appearance. At the time, only a single was released and it has become impossible to find. Franco, Ciccio & Buster are a scintillanting trio in the movie and to suit this mood Piero Umiliani alternated strict dramatic and military pieces written for a large orchestra with less serious , catchy tunes. Piero umiliani varies these two Main Themes continually throughout the movie (for example the main titles are arranged with a drum shake rhythm, whereas track 9 pays hommage to the roaring Twenties, the golden age of Buster Keaton).
