Randy Newman – Trouble In Paradise: Demos (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Randy Newman has always worked from the inside out, building characters and scenes in the writing room long before the orchestration and star power arrived. These demos for the 1983 LP strip away the finished production to reveal how his sardonic wit and melodic instincts operated at the source, where a song like "I Love L.A." was still just Newman, his piano, and an idea about to become a civic anthem whether Los Angeles deserved one or not.
Experience the unreleased demos for one of Rolling Stone’s 100 Greatest Albums of the 1980s. Featuring the demo for the anthem “I Love L.A.," which helped define his legacy as a voice in American music, and two unreleased demos. With Warner Bros. hitmakers Russ Titelman and Lenny Waronker producing, and a star-studded cast of guest vocalists including Paul Simon, Linda Ronstadt, and Bob Seger, the 1983 collection displays the craftsmanship that would make the singer-songwriter one of the most sought-after composers for film and TV.
