Don't hate me - I just heard this on the radio again today.

Another wrinkle-time production? These uninspired, over-produced senior rockers probably sit around all day counting their money and admiring their guitar collections.
TB kept Hooker from living to a ripe old age. This is the man that gave so much to Clapton, and even Hendrix, especially his stage presence, but recieved so little recognition, for whatever that's worth.

There are some pretty interesting back stories to Harry Nilsson. Along with a lot of songs on the small and big screen (Me and my Arrow, the theme for Courtship of Eddie's Father (My Best Friend) and Everybody's Talkin' from Midnight Cowboy) He also wrote "One" that 3 Dog Night covered, sang and recorded Coconut (as in put a lime in a..the whole song one chord).
On a tragic note; As an American living in London, he loaned his flat to Mama Cass while he was back in America on business and she was there in London to perform. She died in one of his bedrooms. Four years later his friend Keith Moon died in that same bedroom.
The below video is the only thing I could find of a video of this song. ( Harry hated performing. There are almost no video's of his few live performances.) This is from the movie Son of Dracula. As a bonus, his friend Keith sits in on drums. (It's not live.) A pretty diverse song writer...
No live videos that I can find, but here's a tasty live recording.

I can't think of another band that spawned more top shelf guitarists....
The Clapton years.....
Jeff Beck's tenure....
Jimmy Page's.......
It's not too surprising that Jimmy varied very little from this version of "Dazed and Confused" when he re-recorded it with Zep. He never could improvise like Clapton and Beck. (Note; cello bow use around 2:30)

Here it is in sync. Otis was truly color blind (an equal opportunity employer). Check out the clip with Otis and Roy Buchanan. Otis's son plays also.

The BEAST doing what he does best!
He plays the song with all of his heart and soul, plays almost half of it behind his back, then walks off like no big deal!
Take note at about 6:11 when he breaks one of those hamstring thick strings that he beats on and continues playing like the awesome legend that he is!
His little pep talk at the end is the best!
Now that is how you play the guitar!
PS. I still get goosebumps every time that I see him play this!
