[Review] Nilsson: Pandemonium Shadow Show (1967)
Nilsson’s major-label debut attracted a wider spotlight, but the real show was just getting started.
Nilsson’s major-label debut attracted a wider spotlight, but the real show was just getting started.
A perfect balancing act between Harry Nilsson’s golden pipes and George Tipton’s gilded arrangements.
The soundtrack to Otto Preminger’s star-studded misfire, in which Jackie Gleason drops acid and Nilsson drops a few new tunes.
The fourth album is a charmer featuring clever originals and immaculate covers.
Randy Newman writes the songs that Nilsson sings, songs of love and special things.
Nilsson’s pointed commentary about a boy and his dog is the best story/album this side of Teaser and the Firecat.
A song so good, it made driving a Plymouth Arrow seem cool. For thirty seconds, anyway.
New vocals and a new mix for old songs from his first two RCA albums.
The Beatles loved Nilsson. You’ll love him too on this album.
The song that inspired the Coca-Cola Company to put lime in Coke, those nuts.
The Friday-night party before the lost weekend, although there are still a few winners on here.
It wasn’t a Beatles reunion, but Ringo was the next best thing.
An album fueled by Lennon’s excesses, yet also one of his most commercially successful records, featuring two hit singles.
John Lennon’s lost weekend is again Ringo’s gain as he moves the party to his place and scores another gold record.
It’s been called one of the worst rock albums of all time. It’s not that bad.
