HARRY NILSSON
AERIAL BALLET (still sealed)
Here’s another delightful package of effervescent, devilishly clever pop, equal parts lite psychedelia, pretty ballads, and music hall cabaret. There’s a love song about his mom and dad, an ode to his favorite desk, an address or two to a "Little Cowboy" the perfect follow up to Pandemonium Shadow Show. There’s also a couple major steps forward, namely "Everybody's Talkin'" and "One." The former finds Nilsson adopting a rolling folk-pop backing for a Fred Neil song, making it into an instant, Grammy-winning classic. The latter was the greatest song he had written to date, a haunting tale of loneliness reminiscent of McCartney, yet with its own voice.
Here’s a time-capsuled original pressing LSP-3956, original black label STEREO PROMO pressing, with the rarely seen John Lennon sticker on the shrink.
