It was produced by Lenny Waronker and Russ Titelman and issued on Reprise Records. While all of its songs were written and composed by Newman, several had already been recorded by other artists. In 2003, it was ranked number 321 on ''Rolling Stone'' magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. ==Music and lyrics== As with all of Newman's early albums, several of its songs had been previously recorded by other artists. In this case, "Simon Smith and the Amazing Dancing Bear" had been a UK hit for Alan Price in 1967, and "Dayton, Ohio - 1903" had been recorded by Billy J Kramer as a single in 1969 and by Harry Nilsson on his 1970 album ''Nilsson Sings Newman''. Newman himself had also previously recorded "Last Night I Had A Dream" as a single, issued in September 1968. The version heard on ''Sail Away'' is a re-recording with a notably different arrangement. The song "Lonely at the Top" was written specifically with Frank Sinatra in mind, although he never recorded it. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sail Away (Randy Newman album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
