One of the best drum and bass solos on any song I've ever heard. Have always loved this one.
He was probably the most unique solo artist.
Herbie Flowers on bass! Thanks, Harri, and Harry!
Nilsson ruled the early 70's from fun songs like The Coconut song to animated movie (Me and My Arrow) to the theme song of The Courtship Of Eddies Father. (Best Friend)
I forgot about The Courtship of Eddie’s Father.
"The Point" was the name of the film. "Me and My Arrow" was a sweet little song from it 🙂 Still a favorite album in my collection.
The Point, was so good, Me & my Arrow was playing constantly on the air. We were kids & loved it.
Nilsson Shmilsson is a masterpiece of an album, from the exquisite "Without You" to the whimsical "Coconut" to this masterful tour de force of vocals and musicianship.
Love the drum solo. Harry is everything.
This song always had the feel of a jam session to me. Not a lot of lyrics, but just letting loose with the vocals and instrumentation. And that bass line is like nothing I ever heard before.
Herbie Flowers - bass. Jim Gordon - drums, percussion. Quite a rhythm section.
Back in the day when artists actually HAD TO HAVE TALENT to get recognition. There isn't a so-called artist/singer today that I would waste any of my $$ on or precious time listening to today ...
@@lisar.6670 clearly you've never listened to king gizzard and the lizard wizard
Harry Nilsson is just an amazing artist that plays different genres of music and does them equally well. sings, writes and is one of the all-time greats.
I think Harry Nilsson is probably the single most underappreciated singer songwriter. Just such a wide range of musicality, and one of the most beautiful lyricists ever. His song "Don't Forget Me" will be played at whatever passes for my funeral. Love the dude....
John Lennon was his biggest fan.
@@smileoftheparrot Pussycats is my favorite Nilsson album.
It's shocking how much of this song is instruments just banging on the same note - add like 3 lines of lyric, a guitar riff and an incredible driving bass line and somehow it becomes GREAT! Detuning the bass down into the mud is just so sick!
A JAM for the ages.
Nilsson was just simply amazing. Great one Imadrummin. ✌️
My pleasure!!! 😀 ✌ 🎸
I love the song Spaceman and You're breaking my heart.
A mini super-group here.
Klaus Voormann, hung out with the pre-fame Beatles in Hamburg in the early '60s. Bassist for Manfred Mann and the John Lennon's Plastic Ono Band, and many many other acts. Drew/designed the Beatles' Revolver album.
Jimmy Webb on piano. Jimmy wrote some of the biggest hits of the '60s, Up Up and Away (In my beautiful Baloon), Several hits for Glen Campbell (Wichita Lineman, By the Time I Get to Pheonix,,,), MacArthur's Park, All I Know....
Herbie Flowers played bass. He played the classic bassline on Lou Reed's Walk on the Wild Side, Essex's Rock On, and he did a lot of work with the solo Beatles.
Jim Gordan, the drummer, was the drummer for Derek and the Dominoes. He played on the Beach Boy's Pet Sounds. He was the drummer for Frank Zappa on his most famous album, Apostrophe! Played wu=ith Johnny Rivers, Art Garfunkel, Steely Dan....
Ol Harry is pretty sneaky with the surprising style changes
Haven’t heard this in a long time. 🥰☮️💟
Great stuff, thank-you.
A departure for him for sure. Love it.
LOVVE LOVE LOVE THIS! Cheers Harri!
This was Harry at his most rocking. Beautiful voice being overdriven. He had kind of a tragic life, but never lost his sense of humor.
My favorite., JUMP INTO FIRE
Harry Nilson was so eclectic you never knew what you were going to get with him. "Without You" which is so beautiful. Must listen to "The Coconut Song" . He has other songs you couldn't play on You Tube." Your Breaking My Heart" first line is your Breaking My heart your Tearing it apart so f**k you. "I'd Rather Be Dead Than Wet My Bed" 2 albums "Nilson Schmilson" & "Son of Schmilson" are a trip. I've love him since I was 11. I have his whole collection. He was an unbelievable artist. RIP HARRY✌🌻🌻
Glad you Like Harrry's Range!
Nifty somg; Harri, you need....NEED to listen to The Moonbeam Song from the same album. IMO it is Harry's voice at its best. It just occurred to me that I should add that my favourite line from the song is, "Or on a fence with bits of crap around its bottom". 🤣
This is a great one Imadrummin!! Thanks a bunch👍✌💫🎶🎧🎸
Thank you Ginny! My pleasure. 👍
Love hearing your reaction to this phenomenal song!❤❤❤
Thank you for listening to this classic 🔥🔥
Definitely one of his most rocking tunes!
Harry Nilsson was one of a kind. Love you reacting to this.
Son of Dracula is a great movie if you watch it as a fun view into Harry and Ringo in the 1970s. This song is the centerpiece of it and you get to see him sing and play the whole thing.
Harry was known as the American Beatle, John, Paul, & Ringo loved him. The man wrote so many great songs
Nilsson's versatility is amazing.
He at his best when he doing rock doing what he was ro dong he wrote for a lot of people
Kudos to Imadrummin for the track selection, and for Harri's reaction! This is truly an unbelievable track. Harri Nilsson is a fascinating artist. I only heard his hits in the early 70's, but have learned through a documentary I saw on his life that he was a studio-only artist. To what that documentary suggests, he did not do live performances, which is interesting. The only other musical act to famously become a studio-only band was the Beatles when they stopped touring in 1966.
Really interesting bass line where he went down and stayed there and meandered around for an unexpectedly long time, I don't think I have heard that before.
I believe he was loosening the string to get that low
@@izzonj It did seem that some of the notes were not tuned, I wasn't sure if that was intentional or not, I assumed so.
Beautiful voice. Great song writer. Love. Love this song. Thanks Harri
The musicians on the basic track were Nilsson (piano), Chris Spedding (guitar), Herbie Flowers (bass) and Jim Gordon (drums). Flowers recalls that Nilsson gave only vague instructions: "lots of tom-toms, a bass riff in D major." The bass part includes a section where, following Gordon's drum solo, Flowers detunes as he plays. According to Flowers, he began loosening the bottom string "for a laugh", believing that by that point in the song, the performance would be faded out on the released recording. Overdubs on master take included Nilsson's vocals, guitar solos by John Uribe and another rhythm guitar part, by Klaus Voormann.
"....or, we could make each other happy"
I didn't know he had this in him at the time I dig it .
The “American Beatle” was a great songwriter & hit maker. I loved this LP!✌️❤️🎶
In the movie Goodfellas. Such a great song 🎵 😎💃🕺🏾
Every time I am in the car, and I hear this song, I automatically look out the window to see if a helicopter is following me
Never heard this song before until I heard it on the Goodfellas movie soundtrack. Had no idea it was Harry Nillsson.
One 🕜 f his best songs I love this one it can relate to a lot of connections to all the drummer eas amazing omg I love Harry Nelson 😊
Thank you my friend for another great pick. I watch your selections every day and appreciate your work. Well done mate
Harold both of you were a joy, him playing and you listening. Awesome. Rocking that shirt too.
By the way, Harri - I'm pulling for you to hit 100k subs before the end of the year and finally get that TH-cam verified checkmark that you so richly deserve. Less than 10k to go!
I haven’t heard this in awhile. This was a pretty big hit for him. Still sounds great. 🌺✌️
The whole album 'Nilsson Shmillson' is great. I was 15 when it came out and bought it on vinyl. Next thing my father is playing it over and over. In the 80's Dad discovered my reggae album collection. I came down stairs early one Saturday morning to find Dad dancing in the living room in his underwear to Yellowman.
The man for whom John Lennon declared in 1968 "Harry Nilsson for President[!]". Later they were notorious drinking buddies in John's "Lost Weekend" in 1973. The both of them were thrown out of a comeback comedy performance of the Smothers Brothers. They knew each other well. John certainly is on record during his time in the Beatles as citing Nilsson as his favorite then current artist.
Harry Nielson brings back some memories. A great songwriter and singer. Very nice submission and great review, Harri.
One of the first songs my son learned on bass. Such a great groove!
The bass line and the drums, grab you in the beginning. When I first heard this I was shocked that this was Harry. I thought I heard the DJ wrong.
Such a funky bunch of instruments, the drums at the end and Harry's voice blows your mind. Very very, versatile artist. Glad you enjoyed Harri. Thanks Harri and Imadrummin. Another rockin great oldie. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
I'm more impressed with Harry Nilsson's versatility as you mentioned. One of the very best.
@@Imadrummin Exactly. Just compare this tune to The Courtship of Eddie's Father. Mind Blown. Take care. 👍✌️🇨🇦
Song was used very well in the movie "Goodfellows" along with many others. Scorsese always puts great music in his movies.
Agreed
Also Layla by Derek(Eric Clapton) and the Dominos.
Every time I hear this song while I'm driving, I look out the window to see if I'm being followed by a helicopter
Every time I hear this song now, reminds me of Goodfellas. RIP Ray Liotta.
Kind of surprised this was played for a reaction. This song was on the only album he released (1971) - while he was alive - which contained 2 top singles: Without You & Coconut. Personally I thought this was a great song with nice drum solo towards the end. He died in 1994 of a heart attack (RIP) while working on what ultimately would be his last album which wasn't released for many years after his passing. He disliked concerts and was one of a few musicians/singers whom enjoyed moderate success without going on tours/concerts.
I believe he played all the instruments on this tune.
the bass is tuned so low it sounds like the strings are flopping against the guitar body. very unique sound. i remember hearing this under the influence of a certain mind altering substance and the echoing of his voice was multiplied in my head. it definite;y added to the experience.
I have read that the bassist Herbie Flowers actually just detuned the E string during that low and dirty part of the song and then re-tuned it to normal tuning at the end. He did it at first as a gag but everybody loved it so much they kept it in the song.
I knew you’d like this one. In 1970, Harry Nilsson made a concept album called “The Point” about a boy named Oblio and his dog Arrow. There is nothing like it anywhere. All good songs but you can’t (shouldn’t) pull one song out of context and play it. You MUST hear it from beginning to end. Now, if that does not fit the format of your show, you should hear it for yourself anyway. I promise you, you will be delighted and it will endear you to Nilsson forever as the writing is very clever and the songs will leave you smiling for days. Oh, one more thing, inside the original album is a book of narration and illustrations but like a year later someone made an animation which you can find online.
I love that album. I remember hearing it for the first time when I was about 11 when it was first released. My aunt brought the album over for my brother and I to listen to...along with a box of Screaming Yellow Zonkers. :) Lovely story and songs and it brings back nice memories.
Great voice! A friend of the Beatles. Gone too soon.
If you'd like a different side of Harry, listen to You're Breaking My Heart (might NOT want to react live! 🥰) LOL
Best break up song EVER!!
@@DawnSuttonfabfour YES!!!! 🤣
@@mybrainhurts1856 He has to do the video of it though, you agree? Dancing in line, falling to their knees etc. Makes it that oh so much more special!
This album, Nilsen schmilsen and son of schmilsen are both great all the way through.
You're breaking my heart
You're tearing it apart
This recording is one of my favorites and hearing it with your fresh ears was a pleasure. The backing band is an all star affair, and as you say, after Harry, Herbie Flowers and Jim Gordon on bass and drums just dominate. The secret star of this track is whomever had the idea to take a four minute one chord jam, edit the multi track arrangement through the console, and essentially invent what we call the 'remix".
The overall effect is, to me, a sustained religious experience.
Fire man
As others have said here "Spaceman" is definitely one you should react to. Love that song.
"Everybody's Talkin'" is my favorite song by Harry Nilsson. But also like "Me & My Arrow", "The Puppy Song", "The Moonbeam Song", "I Guess The Lord Must Be In New York City", "Spaceman" & his novelty song "Coconut". Harry wrote the song "One" which was a big hit for Three Dog Night in 1969.
"I Guess The Lord Must Be In New York City" is fantastic!
There was a "Cocainefest" going on during the recording of this album. It's quite appropriate that this song played when Henry Hill was driving down the road whacked out and totally paranoid in the movie 'Goodfellas'.
Harri, this is the song you use to see how good a sterio system really sounds. An out and out banger.
Yes! This banger had our system thumping😎
@@leannmiller7153 LeAnn, when I bought my first real good stereo back in the day the salesman told me to listen to it and it blew my mind...still does...
Harri you owe it to yourself to check out LCD Soundsystem's incredible cover, one of the best covers ever IMHO
Harri you have to check out "You're Breaking My Heart" by Nilsson it will surprise you man haha. He was one of a kind they don't make them like that anymore. Great vid as always, cheers!
No kidding! Take 54 in a similar vein (from the same album, if I'm not mistaken). Both would get banned from TH-cam...
Great song! Great review! Love Nilsson! The 5th Beatle! Jim Gordon on drums was the best! These guys all intertwined in those days. Lennon, Clapton, Harrison, Nilsson etc.
Hy My dearest Harri. This song was in Scorsese.s Goodfellas, in such a great scene...HUST see it...love Yer Ron
From a movie about vampires. You can jump into the fire, but you'll never be free.
Listen to Your Breakin' My Heart. Jim
This songs brings mixed feelings. A great song on its own but also images of a sweating coked out Ray Liotta
in "Goodfellas." RIP Ray.
another interesting up tempo Harry song is Spaceman
Probably the most versatile artist ever. I have all of his albums. Check out the documentary about his short life (free on TH-cam) called "Who is Harry Nilsson (and why is everybody talking about him)?
Harry!
De lime in de coconut, mon!
So many good songs.
I've been enjoying "gotta get up," recently.
Love Harry! Thanks, Harri!
Great hey!
If you ever get the chance watch the documentary on his life.
Another interesting Nilsson song is your breaking my heart it is a unique love song
The drum solo on this track was by the now incarcerated Jim Gordon (also co-writer of Eric Clapton's "Layla"). Gordon murdered his mother but was diagnosed with schizophrenia & is still in the medical wing of a prison in CA.
Gordon's drums graced many great songs through the 70s because as a drummer he was superb.
Herbie Flowers is the bassist. Flowers added bass to many classic rock albums by numerous famous artists.
Of course, Nilsson was always admired by The Beatles for his classy way of writing songs & though he seldom performed live, his recordings were excellent. Nilsson Schmillson even features some of The Beatles (George & Ringo).
The late John Uribe played the lead guitar. He worked with many major artists.
Wasn't Gordon part of the Mad Dogs and Englishmen's tour for Cocker?
@@denniswatson455 - Yes, Dennis -- he played alongside drummers Jim Keltner & Chuck Blackwell.
Gordon also played with Traffic -- the live LP "Welcome To the Canteen."
Yes . Jim Gordon was the man to play drums on your album in the '70s . As well as Nilson he played on albums by Clapton (Layla ) Steve Winwood ( 2 Traffic albums ) Jack Bruce ( Out of the Storm ) and many , many others . Great drummer .
Yes
Both Mama Cass and Keith Moon died in his flat on Curzon Place London.
Another true classic!! Herbie Flowers amazing on bass & then there is Jim G on drums, on piano Jimmy Webb and THEN there is Harry Nilsson who will not be forgotten because Harri is making sure new generations hear the MUSIC of generations past who first lived through such amazing music 💜☮️💎🇨🇦
I have come to the conclusion that imadrmmin and myself have equal taste in music. So, I’m glad he’s hot some clout!!!
Thank you Denise. 👍
Just realised I've been grooving to the wrong version for 25 years. Guess this is the original album version and not the single edit🥸
Classic😂.
Who is the drummer?
I owe my knowledge of this song entirely to the movie "Goodfellas". Ray Liotta (RIP) looking up through his windshield as the police copter trails him around. This song was not played on the radio in the 70s in the Western US when and where I grew up. Those fools!
Heard it in the movie Goodfellas. Good stuff
Funky and Groovy is Harry Nilsson.
Harry + Harri = great reaction. Thank you for getting to this one. It just rocks and Nilsson could do it all.
Great request Drummaestro!
@@JK_Clarke Much appreciated JK!! 👍✌
I don't know why, but I've always associated Harry Nilsson's kind of music to that of Norman Greenbaum.
The Drummer was Jim Gordon whos credits include Layla(including writing the piano solo) and The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys.
Wow didn’t know that. I three are complete bangers. Always ❤️them. Thanks for the info.
I have this song on several of my playlists.
Yep, he was pretty-damn cool! 👍🤘
Please considering doing a reaction to some of the hits by "Little Willie John". Fabulous talent who was taken from us way too soon. I think you will enjoy him.
One of my favs
Harri you always play my kind of music. Great mind's think alike, lol. Thanks
You should definitely hit "Spaceman" next. (Or really, all of Son of Schmilsson.)
If you like very mellow check out his song called the Moonbeam Song.
