Flash track of the day: Randy Newman 'Jolly Coppers On Parade'

Randy Newman - Little Criminals (1977)

His most successful album. It's the one with "Short People". I've chosen this record mainly because of "Jolly Coppers On Parade" and "Baltimore". Don't get me wrong, but I always have the feeling that he's the whitest soul musician alive when I listen to these songs. 🎹 Quiet remarkable when you consider the strange tone his voice has. For me, he's not only a great lyricist and cynic. 🗣 People sometimes tend to forget that he's also a very poignant musician and singer.
