It should be pointed out, though, that Jimmy Webb is one of the great pop songwriters of all time, if sales are any indication. That, and I have a long-held, even if grudging, respect for him.

We do one of his songs in my band..."The Last Unicorn", originally performed by America for the soundtrack of the animated filim of the same name.

"Chewy, Chewy" by 1910 Fruitgum Company, the flipside of "Green Tambourine"...now *there's* a bad song.
