In 1999 Woody Allen decided to combine his professional career and his favorite hobby with Sweet and Lowdown, a mockumentary about a fictional jazz guitarist named Emmet Ray that gave Allen an excuse to delve into the cheerful '30s jazz with which he spends much of his free time as clarinetist for a Manhattan band. The 14 classic songs on the soundtrack, arranged and conducted by Allen's longtime musical collaborator, Dick Hyman, are as breezy and amiable as the film itself. Tunes like "I'll See You in My Dreams" and "Caravan" have a charm that's hard to resist, particularly as performed by the competent Dick Hyman Group and the obviously skilled lead guitarist Howard Alden, who provides the solos that actor Sean Penn mimes on camera as Emmet Ray.
