When two talented, cussed men such as Harry
Nilsson and Randy Newman get together to record an
album, you can be sure of an exceptional record
filled with great vocals and poetry. Nilsson, who
is described as a man who performs his songs with
one cynical, laughing eye and one nostalgic,
tearful eye in Rowohlt?s Rock-Lexikon, finds
inspiration in the then relatively unknown Newman,
a docile but caustic social critic who often
attacked American society in his songs.
In the layers and harmonies achieved partly by
overdubbing, and which alternate between cowshed,
barbershop and the Beatles, Nilsson manages to
make his bitter words somewhat easier to digest.
He relates the bizarre chronicle of a couple who
have a dull relationship and who morbidly look
forward to passing away in an old people?s home
('Love Story'), or he swears his undying love to a
certain Caroline in springtime, or he is
transported back in time in his mind?s eye to an
idyllic little town in the countryside ('Dayton,
Ohio 1903'). A weighty musical background would
lend nothing to these highly sophisticated songs.
Piano chords, a little bit of electric
harpsichord, and a tinkle on the organ keys here
and there suffice to dally in an old-fashioned
manner ? with a sarcastic smile or even a nasty
grin ? in the desolation of reality, without
getting the blues.
