Description: RANDY NEWMAN The Randy Newman Songbook hails from 2016 and is a SEALED limited edition 180 gram 4LP box set. Sixteen additional songs from a newly released third volume, along with five bonus tracks ("Feels Like Home," "A Wedding in Cherokee County," "Family Album: Homage to Alfred, Emil and Lionel Newman," "I'm Dreaming," and "Wandering Boy"), join those first two volumes in a new, thematic sequencing, to create this new complete Songbook box set. Mitchell Froom produced The Randy Newman Songbook, Vol. 1 and was joined on Vol. 2 and Vol. 3 by Newman's lifelong friend and colleague Lenny Waronker.The New York Times said of the first volume of The Randy Newman Songbook: "The great craftsmanship is more apparent in the stripped-down context," and the Associated Press said, "Few singer-songwriters could inject more new life into solo piano versions of their work than Randy Newman." The UK's Uncut called Vol. 2 "another subtly sublime stroll through the master's back catalogue," noting that Newman is "owner of a peerless canon," and that the album "isolates his full range of qualities: the improbable juxtapositions of caustic topicality and heart-wrenching universality, the concise character studies, and singing and piano playing that seem to emanate from the very fabric of America."After starting his songwriting career as a teenager, Newman began recording as a singer and pianist in 1968 with his self-titled album. Throughout the 1970s he released several other acclaimed albums such as: 12 Songs, Sail Away, and Good Old Boys. In addition to his solo recordings and regular international touring, Newman began composing and scoring for films in the 1980s. The list of movies he has worked on since then includes The Natural,Awakenings, Ragtime, all three Toy Story pictures, Seabiscuit, James and the Giant Peach, A Bug's Life, and most recently, Disney/Pixar's Monsters University, the prequel to Monsters Inc. (which he also scored).LP1 I Think It's Going to Rain TodayIt's Lonely at the TopGod's Song (That's Why I Love Mankind)RednecksLet Me GoLiving without YouYou Can Leave Your Hat OnRagtimeIt's Money That I LovePolitical ScienceThe World Isn't FairIn Germany before the WarThe Great Nations of EuropeMarie LP2 Louisiana 1927Dixie FlyerYellow ManSuzanneThe Girls in My Life (Part 1)KingfishShort PeopleWhen She Loved MeLosing YouMy Life Is GoodBirminghamLast Night I Had a DreamLaugh and Be HappyCowboy LP3 Sail AwayMama Told Me Not to ComeLove Story (You and Me)Burn OnRollin'GuiltyYou've Got a Friend in MeAvalonSimon Smith and the Amazing Dancing BearDavy the Fat BoyLucindaBaltimoreReal Emotional GirlSandman's Coming LP4 Feels Like Home *I Love to See You SmileA Wedding in Cherokee County *Red BandanaBad News from HomeSame GirlI Love L.A.Family Album: Homage to Alfred, Emil and Lionel Newman *Old ManDayton, Ohio – 1903A Few Words in Defense of Our CountryI'm DreamingI'll Be HomeWandering Boy * * Bonus Track
