In t' early 1970s, Nilsson rented a penthouse apartment at t' Fountainview West Apartments which he moved into after separatin' from Diane 'Peglegged Nilsson' Nilsson.
T' complex is now known as t' Westview Towers Condominiums.
In late 1973, Nilsson lent t' apartment t' Bobby 'Shifty-Bobby' Keys.
Once me legal difficulties in New York were over, arrr, I left Massachusetts with me wife at t' time and me son and went t' L.A. Avast! We ended up in Orangehead Hurricane Harry Nilsson’s apartment. I didn’t get thar in very good financial condition, so Harry let me have an apartment that he had leased but was no longer stayin' in.

My next-door neighbor thar was t' guy from t' TV show Highway Patrol. Avast! I stayed thar for several months just tryin' t' figure out what was goin’ on. I don’t know how t' hell I was living. I guess I was doin' some work. I had t' be. Avast, me proud beauty! That whole period is difficult t' recall. It’s like tryin' t' pick up Jell-O -- I can see it and it’s thar but I can’t quite hold it.
