Description

Nilsson’s most commercially successful album, Nilsson Schmilsson is a genre-hopping masterclass in pop eccentricity and vocal finesse. This 2017 reissue from Sony BMG’s Legacy series restores the original RCA Victor recordings with warm analog fidelity, pressed on standard-weight vinyl and housed in a classic sleeve featuring Nilsson’s bathrobe-clad portrait.

From the aching balladry of Without You to the absurdist calypso of Coconut, Nilsson blends studio wizardry with offbeat charm. Produced by Richard Perry, the album showcases lush arrangements, quirky textures, and Nilsson’s elastic vocal range—equal parts crooner and madcap genius.
