 Thanks for the memories jvc!
"Coconut" and "Jump Into The Fire" made me feel like a teenager again. Just sittin in the shade listening to the transistor radio. |
Glad to help out!
I put in his Greatest Hits cd now and then, and have some nice memories too, of better times.
Nilsson was great! I miss him a lot. He did some classic stuff.
The Point album was played a lot, on my old stereo system. Nilsson Schmilsson, and Son of Schmilsson, were a couple of favorite albums too. You're Breaking My Heart, used to crack me up, every time I heard it. Everybody's Talking (theme to Midnight Cowboy) was another favorite song of mine. Me and My Arrow, etc........ I could go on and on. I think I'll put an album on now!
Glad you enjoy him too.........
If anyone here is familiar with Tranquility, I'd like to know.
There were two big name bands, that had concerts in Wilmington (NC), back in '71 or '72. They were Goose Creek Symphony and Savoy Brown. I forget which was which, but Tranquility was the warm-up band for one of the concerts. They blew everybody away, in the audience! They were better than the band they were warming the audience up for. The warm-up band (no one had ever heard of) for the other concert, went on to become very BIG in the business.............Steely Dan. They were also better than the band they warmed up for.
