The Randy Newman Songbook: Volume 1
[ Nonesuch Records / CD ]
Release Date: Tuesday 30 September 2003
Newman takes a fresh look at classic songs from his large body of work: the good ones, and the masterpieces.
Someone once said that there are only two kinds of Randy Newman songs: the good ones, and the masterpieces.
On his first-ever solo studio recording and his debut for the Nonesuch label, he has taken a fresh look at both classic and more recent titles from his large body of work.
Often grouped with Dylan and Joni Mitchell on the short-list of the great singer-songwriters of our era, he is the only songwriter of his generation whose work is also linked to the writing traditions established by Gershwin, Porter and Berlin.
