Hoagy Carmichael From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Hoagy Carmichael - 1947.jpg Carmichael in 1947 Background information Birth name Hoagland Howard Carmichael[1] Born November 22, 1899 Bloomington, Indiana, United States Died December 27, 1981 (aged 82) Rancho Mirage, California, United States Genres Musical films, popular songs Occupation(s) Songwriter, musician, actor, attorney Instruments Piano, vocals Years active 1918-1981 Associated acts Sidney Arodin, Louis Armstrong, Fred Astaire, Bix Beiderbecke, Ray Charles, Bing Crosby, Jimmy Dorsey, Tommy Dorsey, Duke Ellington, Helen Forrest, Harry James, Spike Jones, Frank Loesser, Johnny Mercer, Glenn Miller, Dinah Shore, Jack Teagarden, Paul Whiteman Website Hoagy Carmichael Hoagland Howard "Hoagy" Carmichael (November 22, 1899 - December 27, 1981) was an American singer, songwriter, and actor. American composer and author Alec Wilder described Carmichael as the "most talented, inventive, sophisticated and jazz-oriented of all the great craftsmen" of pop songs in the first half of the twentieth century.[2] Carmichael was one of the most successful Tin Pan Alley songwriters of the 1930s, and was among the first singer-songwriters in the age of mass media to utilize new communication technologies, such as television and the use of electronic microphones and sound recordings. Carmichael composed several hundred songs, including fifty that achieved hit record status. He is best known for composing the music for "Stardust", "Georgia on My Mind" (lyrics by Stuart Gorrell), "The Nearness of You", and "Heart and Soul" (in collaboration with lyricist Frank Loesser), four of the most-recorded American songs of all time.[3] He also collaborated with lyricist Johnny Mercer on "Lazybones" and "Skylark." Carmichael's "Ole Buttermilk Sky" was an Academy Award nominee in 1946 (from Canyon Passage, in which he co-starred as a musician riding a mule); "In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening," with lyrics by Mercer, won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1951. Carmichael also appeared as a character actor and musical performer in 14 motion pictures, hosted three musical-variety radio programs, performed on television, and wrote two autobiographies.

It's not just the pot. Willie is a decent, down to earth guy. He respects people, and can appreciate when someone can support him like that, helping him to sound his best. Willie is reportedly *not* an easy guy to follow, musically, when playing with him. As some musicians have said, he has "jazz phrasing" and is so fluid around the beat, that you have to flow with him to find your place in the music.

Hoagy Carmichael From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Hoagy Carmichael - 1947.jpg Carmichael in 1947 Background information Birth name Hoagland Howard Carmichael[1] Born November 22, 1899 Bloomington, Indiana, United States Died December 27, 1981 (aged 82) Rancho Mirage, California, United States Genres Musical films, popular songs Occupation(s) Songwriter, musician, actor, attorney Instruments Piano, vocals Years active 1918-1981 Associated acts Sidney Arodin, Louis Armstrong, Fred Astaire, Bix Beiderbecke, Ray Charles, Bing Crosby, Jimmy Dorsey, Tommy Dorsey, Duke Ellington, Helen Forrest, Harry James, Spike Jones, Frank Loesser, Johnny Mercer, Glenn Miller, Dinah Shore, Jack Teagarden, Paul Whiteman Website Hoagy Carmichael Hoagland Howard "Hoagy" Carmichael (November 22, 1899 - December 27, 1981) was an American singer, songwriter, and actor. American composer and author Alec Wilder described Carmichael as the "most talented, inventive, sophisticated and jazz-oriented of all the great craftsmen" of pop songs in the first half of the twentieth century.[2] Carmichael was one of the most successful Tin Pan Alley songwriters of the 1930s, and was among the first singer-songwriters in the age of mass media to utilize new communication technologies, such as television and the use of electronic microphones and sound recordings. Carmichael composed several hundred songs, including fifty that achieved hit record status. He is best known for composing the music for "Stardust", "Georgia on My Mind" (lyrics by Stuart Gorrell), "The Nearness of You", and "Heart and Soul" (in collaboration with lyricist Frank Loesser), four of the most-recorded American songs of all time.[3] He also collaborated with lyricist Johnny Mercer on "Lazybones" and "Skylark." Carmichael's "Ole Buttermilk Sky" was an Academy Award nominee in 1946 (from Canyon Passage, in which he co-starred as a musician riding a mule); "In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening," with lyrics by Mercer, won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1951. Carmichael also appeared as a character actor and musical performer in 14 motion pictures, hosted three musical-variety radio programs, performed on television, and wrote two autobiographies.
That sax playing is just incredible.

The sax put a nice touch to the song and as you could see Willie thought it was great . I have that vinyl album in good shape and love his album "Spirit" as well .
The people in the audience got a treat of a lifetime that night.
my mom's favorite....wishing her peace among the stars

Legend has it, Willie's plane landed late in L.A. and he didn't get a chance to rehearse with Branford Marsalis and the band prior to this performance. But check out that smile at the end. Willie knows how great that band is and how excellent that performance was. Or maybe it's just the reefer ...

It's not just the pot. Willie is a decent, down to earth guy. He respects people, and can appreciate when someone can support him like that, helping him to sound his best. Willie is reportedly *not* an easy guy to follow, musically, when playing with him. As some musicians have said, he has "jazz phrasing" and is so fluid around the beat, that you have to flow with him to find your place in the music.
When Willie Nelson covers such a beautiful song, he makes it his song! The man is fantastic, and will remain the best in his way of interpreting everlasting music.
On our birthday today, happy birthday to you Willie and me and to one of the best albums ever.❤
Willie so fantastic and who doesn't absolutely love that saxophone!!
Great moment at the end with Willie and Bradford shaking hands, they both knew that they had just been a part of something great. Awe inspiring.
This is one of the best songs ever written. I often play the LP version over and over and I never get sick of it. Willie did a great job when he recorded that song back in '77 for the Stardust LP.
This performance is a masterpiece. As to the people with negative comments below, with all due respect, you just don't get it.

*@ John Longarini* ````````````````````````````` Well..., perhaps you just don't get it that "dumb ass" *"willietribute2000"* didn't bother to check out the facts and attributed this classic jazz standard to Willie Nelson. With all due respect, the man who should be credited for this timeless composition is Hoagie Carmichael, while Willie Nelson is just one of hundreds famous people who covered this song (Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Nat's daughter Natalie Cole etc... just to name a few). I'm not Willie Nelson hater. I've read all his books, listen to all his timeless songs and admire the man but, the "Stardust" is just his cover not a composition as *"willietribute2000"* implied in his footnote to the video. In short: Do your homework before you write something so dumb Mr./Ms. *willietribute2000*, will ya (?)

The negative folks are stuck in the wonderful world of the auto tune crap rap over a trap beat. I love Willie’s version but it’s an amazing song to begin with and I reckon the best song ever written.
Those pros look like they loved playing that tune with Willie up front and showed him the same respect he showed the sax man. An absolutely pure live performance of a classic.

Willie Nelson phrases a song like no one else! A master!!
Among the things I found sorting through my parents' effects was the 8-track of this album. I remember listening to it in the front passenger seat with Dad as he drove the RV across the countryside. Even as a little kid I knew this song was something special. I'm grateful for the memory.
What a voice brilliant in every way love it .😀
"When our love was new and each kiss an inspiration."
Absolutely timeless thank you Hoagy and Willie! Was great to see even Willy just trying to get through the tune but it added a sense of beauty and feeling.
Willy’s interpretation for this song is super ! I can clearly see the different world of stardust over the sky!

This performance is pure heaven. I have a 4-yr Bachelor of Music in Jazz Voice (pro vocalist and teacher), and I DO know. He totally "gets" this song! Best rendition ever! Willie improvises everything all the time, which is the spirit of Jazz. Enchanting!
Wow... How did I ever miss this... I must have still been using boilermakers for nightcaps the night this was on... How cool to have Willie and Branford trading phrases... I love how Willie declaims the lyrics like Judy Garland did, and the way Derek Jacobi does Shakespeare: As if it's occurring to them right on the spot.
