Youtube ^ | 10/19/2017 | Harry Nilsson

From the album Nilsson Sings Newman, the fifth studio album by Harry Nilsson, released in February 1970 on RCA Victor. It features songs written by Randy Newman. Recorded over six weeks in late 1969, the album showcases Nilsson's voice multi-tracked in layers of tone and harmony. Its arrangements are otherwise sparse, with most of the instrumentation provided by Newman on piano. The record was not a great commercial success, but won a 1970 "Record of the Year" award from Stereo Review magazine.

Oh, Fer Pete’s Sake! Harry Nilsson! Here come the tears!

‘Without You’

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dnUv3DUP4E&list=RDiysfpu-vWvc&index=8

“You always smile, but in your eyes your sorrow shows...”

A Masterpiece in every sense of the word. :(

But then you can cheer up by listening to this:

‘Me and My Arrow’ (A song about his dog. Love it!)
