Harry Nilsson ‘Simon Smith and the Amazing Dancing Bear’
“Simon Smith and the Amazing Dancing Bear” was the first Randy Newman song that Harry Nilsson covered. It was recorded as the last track on the Harry album in 1969. It pointed the way for what was coming next – an entire album of Newman covers in 1970.
