Harry Nilsson - Greatest Hits

Just recently I purchased "Harry Nilsson - Greatest Hits". I purchased it because I had been looking for a certain song of his and upon review of this CD I saw it was on there. Back when I was in Jr. High School a movie came out, "Son of Dracula". Myself and a couple of friends went to see it at the local movie theatre. Well I just fell in love with the title song, "Daybreak". Unfortunately I could never find it until just recently. I had always looked for Harry Nilsson records/CD's in the local music stores but didn't have any luck finding what I wanted. Then a friend told me about Amazon.com. I launched a search and was very pleased at what I saw. I purchased this CD of his and after listening to it a few times I have to say I think it's good and well worth the money. I am only sorry I didn't know about this site before now. I will be purchasing more CD's and DVD's now that I know where to look first! September 14, 2008

The best Nilsson CD of them all!

I've always been a fan of Nilsson since I first heard "Everybody's Talking" back in '69 and then I read that The Beatles were his biggest fans. Nilsson was a singer's singer, he could sing so well and had a great voice range. He also had a quirky sense of humor. This CD captures all his finest works in one CD. There are a couple of songs from the Nillson Shmeilsson CD that aren't here that I also enjoyed, but these 20 songs are all great. Along with Eveybody's Talkin', these feature the best songs off all his albums, My favorites: Everybody's Talkin', Me and My Arrow, Coconut, The Moonbeam Song, My Old Desk, Cuddly Toy etc. Actually there isn't a bad cut on this CD. If you want the cream of Nilsson, this is the one to own. The sound is also superb. July 3, 2008

Harry Nilsson-Greatest Hits

I mainly brought it for the song from Midnight Cowboy, but all the songs brought back many good memories. Excellent collection. I would definitely recommend to my friends. I also thought the price was right. June 3, 2008

A Great Introduction!

This cd is a wonderful introduction for anyone who has heard of Harry Nilsson but never listened to him. There is not a weak song on the entire disc, but then again, Harry didn't have a lot of weak songs anyway!

If you only know the hits, I strongly recommend that you search out all of his albums (many are hard to find, having yet to be released in the US on cd but available as imports), I guarantee you will not be let down.

I only wish that there were more songs on here from his later period, his last album for RCA, "Knnillssonn" is my favorite but there is not a single song from it here. Maybe a Volume 2 is in order....?

As for the two people who left negative reviews; one was upset that they received a used and scratched cd but made no mention of the actual music. The other review was based solely on ONE song that the reviewer heard on the radio and didn't like. January 9, 2008
