So I've not seen any Spaghetti Westerns, well I've seen maybe one "Duck You Sucker"
and it's always good to explore new genres...
could anyone recommend me some good and so-bad-they're-good ones, please?

Maybe some of the Sergio Leone stuff?  The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, A Fistful of DollarsFor a Few Dollars More, and Once Upon a Time in the West are all pretty good.

Here's a list of Spaghetti Western films:  http://www.imdb.com/keyword/spaghetti-western/

I've reviewed lots of them on IMDB.  Here's a link to my reviews.

The best one ever, in my opinion is "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly."

One of the best "so bad it's good" ones that I can think of off-hand is "Savage Guns" aka "His Name Is Sam Walbash But They Call Him Amen."

My Name is Nobody is good for a comedic one.  The first Django film is entertaining.  Death Rides a Horse is solid.

Obviously, the "No Name" trilogy. But also...

Once Upon A Time In The West (my personal favorite)
The Great Silence
Django
Django, Kill
Massacre Time
Four Of The Apocalypse

The previously mentioned The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly and Once Upon a Time in the West are absolutely fantastic, I certainly haven't seen a more impressive entry in the genre than either of those flicks.

Of course you could go a little off course and hit up the ramen western Sukiyaki Western Django, Takashi Miike's extremely fun take on Leone's Fistful of Dollars/Kurosawa's Yojimbo.

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
Django
Death Rides a Horse

Those are the three best spaghetti westerns I've seen.  TGTB&TU is just about the best movie ever, period, if you ask me.
