Jacksonviille's JJ Grey scores PBS war doc


Airing this Friday on WMFE's Bill Moyers' Journal is a documentary film that captures the journeys of five generations of soldiers, from enlistment to the aftermath, from WWII to Gulf War 2. The Howard Zinn-endorsed film is called The Good Soldier, and the music underneath it was provided solely by Jacksonville Mofro frontman JJ Grey.

Some tracks, like the one I've provided below (the "Gimme Shelter"-as-sung-by-CCR track "War," which I have to assume will underscore the Vietnam section) are album selections from Mofro, and others are brand-new songs by Grey.

It's Grey's first foray into film scoring. The Good Soldier is making a limited theatrical run this month as well, but the closest it comes to our town is the Lake Worth Playhouse on Nov. 15. So set your DVR for Friday at 9 p.m. on PBS.
