Johnny Mercer… Under the Stars

It’s almost impossible to get through an entire day without hearing at least one Johnny Mercer song on recordings, radio and television, or in movie houses and theaters anywhere in the world!  Five decades of great American songs written in collaboration with America's greatest composers, including:  Harry Warren, Hoagy Carmichael, Harold Arlen, Jerome Kern, Duke Ellington, Henry Mancini, Johnny Mandel, John Williams, Marvin Hamlisch, and Andre Previn.

From the light-hearted "You Must Have Been A Beautiful Baby" and "Jeepers Creepers" to the romantic "I Remember You;" the dramatic "Blues In The Night" to the cinematic "Hooray for Hollywood" and "On The Atchinson, Topeka and The Santa Fe" - this award-winning creator of timeless standards (don’t forget "Black Magic," and "Moon River!"), and the founder of Capitol Records, is responsible for more than 1000 of your favorite songs from film and stage.
