Go the Distance - Mannheim Steamroller
The world said good-bye this weekend to CHARLTON HESTON who died in his home on Saturday. Although it is unclear at this time what he died of, Heston was battling prostate cancer and Alzheimer's disease for many years.
Heston, who is known for his stunning film career (Ben-Hur, Planet of the Apes, The Ten Commandments) and being the President of the National Rifle Association, has a Disney connection that not that many people are aware of. Heston was the voice of the narrator at the beginning of Hercules. It is because of this that I chose a cover of Go the Distance by MANNHEIM STEAMROLLER for today's post as a tribute to Charlton Heston's legacy.
