Who is Harry Nillson

And why is everybody talk in' about him. The best documentary I've ever seen. One of the best musicians this country has ever produced hands down. I just watched this for the first time today. I won't go In to details but would say that whether you know who Harry is or not, you owe it to yourself to watch this movie. Especially the younger generation. Its sad but its life. If you're familiar with Harry you will laugh and cry through this. The guy was just an amazing talent. Absolutely amazing.

On another kind of unrelated note, the biographical film "Control" is about the rise and fall of Ian Curtis, the lead singer of Joy Division. This is a very good, but really sad film. Highly recommended.

I've been a fan of Nilsson back when he actually sang. Check out 'Nilsson, Schmilsson', my favorite of all of his works. His take on those old standards are simply wonderful.

All the best,

NoNoise,
His take on the standards was called " A Little Touch of Schmilsson In The Night "

I stand corrected Winoguy17. I was just too lazy to go through my CDs and got them mixed up.

All the best,
