Any fan of Johnny Mercer will surely enjoy this collection of his songs from the movie Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. K.D.Lang's rendition of "Skylark" is at least as wonderful as Ella Fitzgerald's. The stylings of Clint Eastwood singing "Ac-cent-tchu-ate the Positive" were surprisingly good. Who knew Kevin Spacey could sing? He did a fine job on "That Old Black Magic" and, of course, the magical Tony Bennett rounds off the numbers with " I Wanna Be Around". These 14 fabulous Johnny Mercer songs are a great addition to any music collection.
This was a gift for my sister who recently broke her cd of Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. She was so glad to get a replacement. I should point out that this is not the soundtrack as it was performed in the film but was inspired by the film and rendered by a diverse group of artists, k.d. laing, Diana Krall, Clint Eastwood and Kevin Spacey among them. If you like Johnny Mercer or enjoyed the film, this is a cd to buy.
