Nilsson's RCA debut is in some ways astonishingly perfect pop; that this album doesn't rank as his finest is solely because the singer--one of pop's most accomplished tunesmiths--filled it with several covers, including "She's Leaving Home," "River Deep, Mountain High," and "You Can't Do That." Also featured: "1941," "Without Her," "Ten Little Indians," and "Cuddly Toy." Fabulous beyond belief.
