I couldn't remember if Joni was nominated for a Grammy for For The Roses and had to check. Nope. No nominations for Ladies, Blue, or For the Roses. I guess the era was dominated by Carpenters, Anne Murray, etc.Jeff

That is a GREAT documentary. I was a bigger Nilsson fan in the early 70's 
than I was a Joni fan.
They asked Harry to write a song "like" Fred Neill's "Everybody's Talkin'" 
and he came up with "I Guess The Lord Must Be In New York City", which he 
recorded and released but not for the film.

Joni's song was recorded by East Coast folkie Donal Leace on an album 
produced by Roberta Flack. He said he learned the song from a demo tape 
Joni had given him. Would sure love to hear that demo, even though the 
song is no great shakes.

The documentary "Who is Harry Nillson?" is still streaming on Netflix 
until Oct. 1st, so if you haven't seen it and have Netflix now is the 
time.
A couple things I didnt know or recall, Nillson didnt write "Everybodys 
Talkin" ( the theme song to the 1972 movie Midnight Cowboy), but had 
recorded it prior to the movie being done. The movie producers had 
requested both Joni Mitchell and Bob Dylan to provide a theme song. Dylan 
came up with "Lay Lady Lay" and Joni wrote "Midnight Cowboy" which she 
apparently never recorded.

Another interesting thing was a photo at about the 33 minute mark of Joni 
arm-in-arm with Nillson at the 1973 Grammy awards.

Oh well, maybe someone will. Maybe it will be recorded for radio or TV. Maybe CaitrC-ona O'Leary will come out with a Joni album!

I have tickets and Dermot is being dragged along. I'm not one for recording
but I do hope the translations are available in written form. Mind you, BYT
may well end up on YouTube.

That does sound interesting, Garret, and I'm sure Dermot will have a lovely time. It will be great if it appears on YouTube.

Catherine, I'm also impressed by your language study. The things you don't know about people!
