| Details: |
U.S. crooner Harry Nilsson performs 19 smooth and entertaining songs, including hits like "It Had To Be You" and "You Made Me Love You." Time will tell whether Harry Nilsson is remembered most fondly for his songwriting or his singing. Throughout his career, he covered outside material (two of his biggest hits were Fred Neil's "Everybody's Talkin'" and Badfinger's "Without You"), and even devoted an entire album to songs by Randy Newman (NILSSON SINGS NEWMAN). After the rollicking party of NILSSON SCHMILSSON and SON OF SCHMILSSON, he delivered this album. It's a set of pre-rock-era, crooner-styled ballads, lushly arranged and conducted by Gordon Jenkins (who achieved his greatest fame with Frank Sinatra). Nilsson handles the songs with grace and aplomb. He's never cloying or maudlin, and demonstrates a deep understanding of material that clearly influenced much of his early development as an artist. He's a confident interpreter, making standards like "Makin' Whoopee!" and "As Time Goes By" his own. |
