#1615 – SPACEMAN – Harry Nilsson - 2/21/2020

Yesterday marked the 58th anniversary of John Glenn orbiting the Earth.

Harry Nilsson was, by all accounts, quite an odd chap. For example, he was one of the very few popular musical artists to have had a successful without ever touring or performing live. He always had a bizarre lyrical outlook. Known for his keen songwriting skill, it is ironic his 2 best remembered singles were covers: EVERYBODY’S TALKIN’ & WITHOUT YOU. This song was the lead single from “Son of Schmilsson”, the follow-up to his hugely successful LP “Nilsson Schmilsson”. 


1972
