Distributor: MSI Music Distribution Notes: This collection of 25 songs combines two full-length releases by singer and songwriter Harry Nilsson, featuring "Nobody Cares About The Railroad Anymore," "Fairfax Rag," "Rainmaker," and includes numerous songs written by Randy Newman, including "Beehive State" and "So Long Dad." CD contains 2 bonus tracks.
Though he's best known for his versions of other people's songs (Fred Neil's "Everybody's Talkin'," Badfinger's "Without You," an entire album of Randy Newman songs), Nilsson was a skilled composer, and is recognized as a pop craftsman of the first order. As a songwriter, he placed tunes with the Monkees, the Yardbirds and others. As a singer he managed to wring greatly expressive range from his uniquely flexible voice, and is recognized as a pop craftsman of the first order.
