Good music
A CD that needs to be in a Nilsson's fan collection. Good album, in particular the song "It had to be you".


breathtaking
Nilsson's fondness for popular ballads was clear on the album "Harry," which I listened to over and over when I was a teenager. This album is charming and heartbreaking. I'm just happening on "A Little Schmilsson in the Night" now, and I'm happy to see that Nilsson's nostalgic side was so fully realized before he died. As I listen to the album today, I can't believe that it's ironic or condescending in the least. He's so in the love with the music.


For Those Who Don't Know Anything About Harry

Already knowing Harry's work from previous records, I added this album to my collection. I,originally bought this album (back when they were LP's)in 1973. What I found out is, Harry changed directions from what he was known for. I think he set out to do something daring, gutsy for the times he lived in. Rock and Roll
was the dominant music, crooning was for Las Vegas. He took the risk of recording something, that might not have been to popular at that time, and showed any who would take the time to listen his talent, his voice, his range. I feel strongly that Harry achieved his greatest work in this one LP. Today it still has just as much impact as it did thirty years ago. Yes, this album
would go with me to the deserted island if I were to go. If you don't know him, this album is my first recommendation to
learn about Harry Nilsson. He paved the way for Linda Ronstandt
to record with Nelson Riddle. I never want to be where I can't
listen to this record when the mood strikes me. It's one of my all-time favorites. I hope you enjoy it too.


A Little Touch of Schmilsson in the Night
I must have it on CD now and put it on continuous play. I bought this album on vinyl in the late seventies and haven't gotten over it yet! It's beautiful.


Just Perfect
Harry's beautiful voice matched with stellar arrangements by Gordon Jenkins and the best songs imaginable. This is an absolutely perfect record. Probably the best "As Time Goes By" there will ever be. "Touch of Schmilsson" has even more meaning for me because I met Harry and had him sign it for me about 20 years ago. He regaled me with stories of himself and Keith Moon carrying on in the 70s (I was wearing a Who shirt, which sparked his memory), then he mistakenly inscribed the record to Keith instead of Ken. An honest mistake and I loved him all the more for it. A classy album from a very classy guy. I miss him.
