Just An Old Fashioned Love Song (Japanese paper sleeve edition)
CD (Item 615645) A&M/Universal (Japan), 1971 — Condition: New Copy
Yes, that's right – THE Paul Williams: the short blonde guy who was a bit of a celebrity in the early 70s, showing up on countless variety and talk shows, and even making an appearance in the later Planet Of The Apes movies. Despite Williams' short stature and strange looks, he was actually a heck of a songwriter – and this brilliant album is a soft rock masterpiece that more than proves that fact, put together with some simple smooth LA arrangements, mostly done in small group format, and occasionally handled by jazz musicians Tom Scott and David Spinozza. A number of songs were co-written with the great Roger Nichols – and the album includes Williams' fantastic versions of the hits "We've Only Just Begun" and "An Old Fashioned Love Song" – plus the tracks "Waking Up Alone", "I Never Had It So Good", "That's Enough For Me", and "When I Was All Alone". (SHM-CD pressing – wonderful package, too – with all the die-cut details of the original album sleeve!) © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | ||||||
