Music pick: Windmills of Your Mind

If there is no perfect song, "Windmills of Your Mind" (Music: Michel Legrand; Lyrics: Alan & Marilyn Bergman) comes close enough for me. After hundreds of listenings in the 45 years since its Oscar winning debut in "The Thomas Crown Affair", it's seamless combination of lyrics and music about the interior dialogue we spend much of our existence pondering, still stops me in my tracks. It's featured to honor Noel Harrison, who made just $250 recording his Oscar winning version in 1968. Harrison died Sunday at age 79. The son of British acting great Rex Harrison (My Fair Lady's Henry Higgins) Harrison dabbled in singing, acting, Olympic skiing, even beekeeping on a rural Nova Scotia farm with no electricity, but never topped his definitive version of an amazing song
