Land of Dreams album for sale Product Description

Land of Dreams album for sale by Randy Newman was released Sep 27, 1988 on the Reprise label. The whip-smart songs of Randy Newman have always engaged melody with a poignant lyrical fury, making the ornery observor of American contradiction strangely comparable to English songwriters like the equally pissed-off and remorseful Elvis Costello. LAND OF DREAMS joins the sensitive grumbler with the eloquent producer and guitarist Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits. Songs like the cheesy, buoyant "Falling in Love" (with guitarists Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne and Mike Campbell) play against haunting beauties like the autobiographical "Dixie Flyer" and the lovestruck "Something Special." Although Newman misfires a bit with lumpy tracks like the weird-dude-on-acid headtrip of "'Masterman and Baby J," he makes it up in spades with "It's Money That Matters," a pointed, cynical diatribe aimed at Reagan-era "trickle-down" economics. Land of Dreams CD music contains a single disc with 12 songs. ...See Full Description

By far and away his best!
I think this is by far and away his best! Granted, he had some big names helping him with this one! The only concern I have is that probably the best song he ever did "Something special" is not on his Greatest Hits nor Box Set; nor has this been remastered.
