My Weekly Music Selection


In 1997, Clint Eastwood directed the movie"Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil". The movie was set in Savannah, Georgia and much of the story takes place in the one-time home of the Mercer family. Eastwood siezed on the opportunity to interlace the film with music that was written by Johnny Mercer.

A compact disk of the same name was released featuring Johnny Mercers' music with a different artist for each song. My favorite of these is "This Time the Dream's on Me"sung by bluegrass sensation Allison Krauss with a great tenor sax solo by Ernie Watts.
