Weird jazz music soundtrack ...


What was up with the elevator jazz music soundtrack?

reply

Eastwood is really into jazz. Watch 'Play Misty for Me'

reply

I knew Eastwood likes jazz music. I like jazz too. It's just that as a soundtrack it is kind of questionable.

reply

The jazz music that was used for this movie is way less questionable than the soundtrack to The Firm with Tom Cruise. In that movie, it's the same piano notes over and over again for the whole movie!

Most directors don't have the power to pick a soundtrack for the movie ..Tarantino, Scorceese, and Eastwood are the exception.

I really liked the obscure songs his character sung on his road trips.

I'm thinking, if I live to 90 , will singing 'Hungry like the Wolf' seem as strange to the 20 something's?

LOL, probably not, but putting it in the soundtrack to a movie might.

At least you noticed it. Arturo Sandoval was responsible for the soundtrack. He's a established jazz pianist and trumpeter. He has some pretty good music floating around if you like jazzy/mexican/cha cha music.
