LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

Randy Newman's first album was aptly self-titled - the artistic outlet of a young man that would become a superstar in a few albums' time.

His style is simply unmatched by any other contemporary artist. No one song structure and melody resembles the other while his storytelling lyrics are intelligent and satirical. The whole package called Randy Newman is one of greatness.

During his career, he intently takes on cliches, turning and twisting them until the point is made: out of the ordinary comes the extraordinary. This is the essence of Randy Newman.
