Harry Nilsson...what an enigma. Obviously a man of great talent who never really defined himself as an artist. But that doesn't mean he didn't create some great music, and critics and fans seem to agree that his career reached its apex with Richard Perry and the Nilsson Schmilsson/Son of Schmilsson sessions. There are those who think that Son of is just an inferior rehash of Schmilsson, but I don't agree. It does not contain the blockbuster smash (Without You), but is just as enjoyable. It was the last time that Nilsson would reach a large audience. From here it was a standards LP, which was good but an obvious letdown after the previous 2 LPs. Then came disaster...his cavorting with John Lennon and Pussy Cats. Nilsson destroyed not only his reputation, but his incredible voice. I'm a Beatles fan, and by extension John gets included, but what he contributed to Nilsson's demise is unforgivable. It seems that Harry so wanted to be a Beatle that he was willing to sacrifice anything. So this marks the last time we get the full brilliance of Harry in the studio. For that reason alone this is a classic. If you're new to Nilsson, start with this and Schmilsson and work backward. His earlier work may be a bit spotty, but it all features his incredible singing, and that alone carries it all. A Little Touch Of Schmilsson In the Night is worthwhile in that it is the last time we would hear that voice in all its glory. His work after that is for completists only. Even if the songs were brilliant (they're not), it's just too hard to listen to that ravaged voice. RIP Harry.

"You're breaking my heart!...You're tearing it apart!...SO F**K YOU!!!! No, they don't write 'em like that anymore, that's for sure. What kind of insane mind would come up with lines like, "I'd rather be dead then wet my bed". And what about Joy?...."Now when I think of her I get all clammy inside". But never mind, even if as Harry says, "I SANG MY BALLS OFF FOR YOU BABY!!!!!" Thery're ain't no one, absolutely not a single solitary songwriter around today, who knows how to express more unabashed fun into their craft. We miss you Harry. It's sad you left us so soon. But look on the bright side, at least you did't wet your bed. PS: Hey Harry, How's Johnny doin' up there?

"His Best"	2002-12-12
- Reviewed By terry2andcindy
To me, this is the best work Harry Nilsson ever did. There isn't a close second. This is it. I love Harry Nilsson and I hate Harry Nilsson. This album represents everything I love about the man. This album was recorded before he lost his mind and became a complet imbecile. A few record later and you got "The Flying Saucer Song". A few records before and you got "Good Old Desk". In between, you get this classic. In the beginning there was a bank teller named Harry. He wrote a few good songs and a lot of bad ones. One of his songs was "Cuddly Toy", a song that was just oh-so-cute. Harry wrote a lot of songs that were just oh-so-cute and got a record contract. Harry though he himself was just oh-so-cute. Harry Nilsson was the luckiest SOB on this plannet. This was before Harry changed from being oh-so-cute to what-a-bunghole. His first couple of albums were liked by the critics but ignored by the public. The Beatles liked him, which helped a lot. Then he recored "Everybody's Talkin'" and the public came around. I'm giving this brief history because Harry had talent but was so smitten with himself that a lot of his work is, in my mind, unlistenable. Some of his later RCA projects were miserable. But this one, smack dab in the middle of his career, a career he stupidly threw away, is a masterpiece. Harry was actually funny in this one. Harry's later stabs at humor fell flat- no make that fell F-L-A-T- but here he's got a good producer, Richar Perry, who undoubtedly wasn't afraid to tell Big Headed Harry when something wasn't working. So I love this incarnation of Nilsson. It is indeed his best- only to be followed up by some of the most worthless ever released by anyone- and that includes Kathie Lee! Harry passed away some years ago. What a shame. He was never able to regain past glories. Hope this serves as a warning sign to other artists- don't let your ego get in the way of your music.

I bougth this used on LP back in about '79 or '80 because it was one of the many great studio records Peter Frampton played guitar on in his early solo career. There was even a cute picture of him in the liner. Hey, I was like 15. He was god. Even then, I loved this record. I was particulary interested in the songs with Pete's sunny, effective riffing but I grew to adore Harry's humor. And I learned about other great session men of the time like Nicky Hopkins and Cris Spedding by falling for this record. Heck, George and Ringo are on it! Listed as George Harrysong and Richie Snare ;-) After "Spaceman" was used in one of my all-time favorite movies, 1997's CONTACT, I pulled out the LP, made a tape of it and started listening to it again...This is kind of an underapreciated effort in a rather illustrious career. If you like Nilsson's other work, even if you only know the hits, give it a try. It's very catchy, even singable, and always a fun way get from here to there in traffic.

"Quirkiness at it's best!"	2000-08-11

Harry Nilsson died a few years ago from a heart attack, sadly. He has many websites in his honor & listed John Lennon as one of his close friends. He was well respected in the music community, and one of his hits was "Coconut" (you put the lime in the coconut and shake it all up...) as well as the sentimental favorite, "Without You", &"Me And My Arrow". None of those above-mentioned songs are on this particular CD, but I thought I'd mention them so you get an idea of his talent. This CD has more of his quirkier humor, which catches a person off-balance and makes one laugh. If you are one of those people who joins music clubs to get your collection built up every time they change the format (8-tracks v.s. vinyl v.s. cassette v.s. CD v.s. 'to be continued'), then you know what I'm talking about when I say that there are eleven favorite albums you always get first. Right? Son of Schmilsson is always one of my Top 11 first choices. 'nough said!

I bought this lp about 25 years ago and glad to of rebought it last year. Nilsson voice is so versitle on this cd, and is at his best. Eventhough it is not the best lp he did, it was at his best(if that makes since). Anyway this would of been a 5 star review if I would of received the 2 bonus tracks of "Joy" as it stated in the order, but what the heck. Although he is gone now we still can hear him on "RCA RECORDS AND TAPES" lol. So long harry!
