  1. FRED NEIL
    Everybody's Talkin'
    1971 U.S. reissue
    [orange labels]

    A masterful songwriter, and a dude that had a LOT to do with a young Bob Dylan hitting the stage at Cafe Wha? in Greenwich Village.

    It still shocks me how many people think that “Everybody’s Talkin’” is a Harry Nilsson song, when in fact it was Neil who wrote it.
    That song only became a hit when Nilsson’s version was featured in the 1969 movie Midnight Cowboy.

    SUCH a hit that Neil’s self-titled ‘66 album (THIS ONE), was reissued under the name Everybody’s Talkin’, in order to capitalize on the film’s (and song’s) success.

    The album however is much more than that one song.
    The Dolphins is absolutely beautiful, as is Neil’s take on the traditional tune “Sweet Cocaine”.

    A laid back and stellar 38 minutes.
    Just such a great record.
