In fact, he used Erroll Garner's celebrated song \"\u003cem\u003eMisty\u003c\/em\u003e\" in the first film he directed, titled \u003cem\u003ePlay Misty for Me\u003c\/em\u003e (1971). Presented here is a collection of classic jazz, blues, swing and country performances featured in the soundtrack of some of his films.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClint Eastwood interview Jazz Times in 2007: \"When I was a kid growing up in Oakland, I started listening to a program called The Dixieland Jubilee. For fifteen minutes every day, they'd play the Frisco Jazz Band, Lu Watters' Yerba Buena Jazz Band, stuff like that. Then there was a jazz store out near El Cerrito, and I went out there and started listening to things and purchased a few records. Bop was starting to come in pretty good. So I went over and saw Dizzy Gillespie with a big band in San Francisco. There was a lot of blues being played around Oakland at that time - Ivory Joe Hunter, Joe Houston, Wynonie Harris - and I got wrapped up listening to that.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New Continent","offers":[{"title":"Music From The Films Of Clint Eastwood - LP - 180g Blue Vinyl","offer_id":54305095287129,"sku":"SDZ-41294","price":25.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/3455\/0945\/files\/Play_Misty_For_Me_-_Music_From_The_Films_Of_Clint_Eastwood_-_Various_Artists_-_LP_Blue_Vinyl_-_2025_Compilation.jpg?v=1741789955","url":"https:\/\/spindizzyrecords.com\/products\/various-play-misty-for-me","provider":"Spindizzy Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
