Jon Burlingame's discusses Harry Nilsson's theme for The Courtship of Eddie's Father. The Nilsson section lasts all of two pages, but it fills in a part of Harry's career that has been heretofore relegated to a TV trivia question. Harry did discuss "Eddie's Father" during a career retrospective radio broadcast a couple of years before his death, but this book tells the story from the perspective of producer James Komack, who picked Harry for the job. Brief as it is, a valuable contribution to the Nilsson literature. (Source: Curtis Armstrong)
