On "Time After Time," Harry's piano playing takes center stage, while "Next Door Blues" draws on the rich musical heritage of New Orleans. Says Harry, "That's the direction I'm headed, exploring the music I grew up with in the context of a Big Band. I'll be doing a lot more of this in the future." Leave it to Harry to take a warhorse like "There's No Business Like Show Business" and turn it into something utterly fresh and original, in this case a sly syncopated romp. Harry's own "A Moment With Me" blends Big Band and strings in a muted plea for love. The beautiful Irish air "Danny Boy" is given a reverential performance, while the classic "Cry Me A River" is transformed into a stately New Orleans funeral dirge. Harry closes the album with a red hot rendition of Cole Porter's "Love For Sale," with the full Big Band and orchestra.
Harry's acting career has continued to burgeon. In 1998, he co-starred with Sandra Bullock in the hit romantic comedy Hope Floats, which earned him a 1999 Blockbuster Award nomination for Favorite Actor-Drama/Romance. In 1995, Harry co-starred with Holly Hunter and Sigourney Weaver in Copycat," portraying a maniacal serial killer, and earning him some of the best reviews of his career. He also appeared in the 1996 box office champion Independence Day. This year, Harry steps into his first lead role co-starring opposite Pete Postlethwaite in Letters From A Wayward Son, due in the Fall. He will also appear in the improvisational film The Simian Line, directed by Linda Yellen and co-starring Lynn Redgrave and William Hurt, due in the Fall of 1999. Capping off what has been an extremely busy year on the movie-front, Harry lent his voice to one of the lead characters in the Warner Bros. animation feature, The Iron Giant, and the independent film My Dog Skip. |
