Happy Birthday Harry

Today's forgotten oldie is in honor of Harry Nilsson, because today is his birthday.  Nilsson was a rarity in the music industry, he did what he wanted and was still able to be successful even though he never went on major tours as most artists must to be successful.  He had three huge hits as well as a couple of gold albums, a grammy, and a best vocalist of the year award.  He was also notorious for his drinking, especially his LA binges with John Lennon.  One of his big hits is today's forgotten oldies... "Coconut" which went to #8 on the hot 100 in 1972.  So in honor of Nilsson, here's "Coconut", and happy birthday Harry.
