What an enjoyable 40 mins reading, listening to the narrative and songs you pulled together here Pete! What a range!

Thanks, Liz. An amazing range of styles in such a short timeframe too. What a life he lead!

Nice as always Pete. I know his music but did not know about his hard-charging lifestyle or connections.

Loved this Pete. Shared with Jeff who’s been a real Nillsen lover. Keep going.

Fun read Pete. Next to John Prine -Nilsson is my other favorite. I think I was the only freshman in high school grooving on a little Schmillson in the night.

It’s also the only artist who’s record ( your breaking my heart- your tearing it apart so f*** you” ) my dear dad broke in half - as i played it on repeat....😂

Ha! Patty, I was trying to figure out how to incorporate that great breakup song! And, I can just see you trying to turn your friends onto 50s pop via Nilsson 🤓
