|    SRI Records Celebrates Harry Nilsson's 7    |
|    26 Jun 16 11:48:19    |
      In celebration of Harry Nilsson's 75th birthday, SRI Records is pleased to       release "Dream On Nilsson, a tribute to the great Harry Nilsson, who would       have turned 75 on June 15th this year. Dream on Nilsson, (Kai Anders Stenlund       - Vocals, Guitar, Bass;        Joshua Parlanti - Piano, Guitar, Bass, Vocals; Kyle O'Brien - Percussion; Ian       Stenlund - Guitar; Joe Downing - Electric Bass, Upright Bass), a talented       group of musicians who recorded the album, are dedicated to the talents of       Harry Nilsson and recorded        this album in an effort to bring his great music to a new audience.              The interest in Dream On Nilsson's release was near and dear to CEO Shelly       Liebowitz's heart. A long time close friend who spent lots or time with Harry       and John Lennon, Liebowitz first met Dream on Nilsson when they joined the       effort trying to convince        the Rock 'N Roll Hall of Fame that Harry Nilsson should be inducted. According       to Liebowitz, "I was very impressed with their love and respect for Harry's       work and desire to bring it to a new young audience. The recordings show true       respect to Harry's        original renditions yet sound much more current. Harry's music is known to       everyone even if you don't realize it. From 'Everybody's Talkin' At Me' from       Midnight Cowboy, to writing hits for The Monkees, Three Dog Night and many       other artists, to his        animated children's story 'The Point' or the silliness of 'Lime In The       Coconut', Harry is still very much with us. He was a very unique artist and       person. He never toured or even performed live. His songs touched us in a way       that most never do whether it'       s 'My Best Friend' from the television show The Courtship of Eddie's Father,       'Me And My Arrow', 'One Is The Loneliest Number', 'Gotta Get Up' or even the       outrageous 'You're Breaking My Heart' - everyone has a Nilsson favorite. Harry       was the first artist        to decide to record an album of standards and I remember when I asked him why       he just said, 'my voice is as good as it will ever be so now is the time.'"              "The group of us trying to get "Harry In The Hall" is quickly growing and       includes many songwriters, rock stars, fans and friends. It is my hope that       the release of Dream On Nilsson will help spread the word and showcase a few       lesser known Nilsson        originals," says Liebowitz              You can preview a selection of songs from the album on the SRI website and the       album will be available for purchase on the website, on Spotify, iTunes, Apple       Music, Amazon and all major digital outlets.              SRI Jazz, SRI Records and Flamingo Jazz are all part of SRI Label Group       providing quality, collectible Blues, Jazz, Country and Rock & Roll from major       artists past and present. As one of the first websites on the internet to       offer collectible music,        srirecords.com established itself as a pioneer on the web since 1998. With       industry veteran Shelly Liebowitz at the helm, SRI has strived to provide a       standard of excellence in the world of music.              For additional information contact Shelly Liebowitz by email at        helly@srirecords.com or by phone at 818.299.6297.              Website: http://www.srirecords.com       Music: http://srirecords.com/index.php/rock/1669-dream-on-nilsson              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
