Music reviews of The Webb Sessions: 1968-1969
Music Review: Songs for old and young gay men
Rating: 5 Stars
I TOO FELL UNDER THE SPELL OF JIMMY WEBB/RICHARD HARRIS MAGIC. AT 21, WHEN I WAS MOST VULNERABLE. THESE SONGS DESCRIBED THE PAIN OF LOVE, WHICH WE ALL FEEL, WHETHER IT IS DIDN'T YOU GIRL OR DIDN'T YOU BOY. MAGIC. MAGIC. THE PERFECT MELODY AND LYRICS, THE PERFECT VOICE. AND NOW, AS AN OLD MAN, I STILL BURST INTO TEARS AND FIREWORKS.
Description of The Webb Sessions: 1968-1969
Since the late 1960s Jimmy Webb has been one of the truly enigmatic American songwriters, impressing with such diverse works as 'Wichita Lineman', 'Do What You Gotta Do', 'I Keep It Hid' & 'The Moon's A Harsh Mistress'. But perhaps his most towering achievement & one of the most astonishing collaborations in contemporary music, occurred in 1968 when Webb used imposing Irish actor Richard Harris (of CAMELOT fame) to dramatically interpret a truly bizarre & amorphous 7 minute orchestrated epic called 'Macarthur Park'. Although it was greeted with some bewilderment it became a global hit, reaching #2 in America. This seemingly odd association continued for two Dunhill albums, 'A Tramp Shining' (1968) & 'The Yard Went On Forever' ('69) & one single A-side ('One Of The Nicer Things'), all of which have been included on this single disc. Both albums are presented in their original sequence & include theGeneral CDs
