Brass Bed with Allison Bohl – On Nilsson (2012)

After being asked to perform for a Harry Nilsson tribute night, Brass Bed and long standing art director/collaborator Allison Bohl, decided to record their take on Harry’s classics: “One,” “He Needs Me,” “He’s Large” and “Don’t Forget Me.” On Nilsson is no mere tribute record though, the band imbues each of the four songs with their trademark pop schizophrenia wherein songs can swing wildly from excited pop to a mood that’s akin to the most lonesome paranoia, but then again maybe it’s that Bohl’s voice is near perfect conjuring of Shelly Duvall’s vocals from Popeye.
