Jack Nitzsche Story 1963-78: - Various Artists. CD. (Ace Records - CDCHD 1030) A 26-track overview of the extraordinary career of this revered and sadly missed American pianist/composer/arranger/producer who worked with nearly everyone of note in popular music in the 60s and 70s, from writing hits such as the Searchers' 'Needles and Pins' to playing with Neil Young (sadly not represented here), The Rolling Stones,(as demonstrated by Marianne Faithfull's reading of 'Sister Morphine') Judy Henske, PJ Proby, Tim Buckley and Graham Parker among others, to the Oscar winning soundtrack for 'One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest'. Not to mention his solo works which are classics in their own right. Many of these tracks have never been released on CD before- now they come complete with sleevenotes from expert Mick Patrick and never-before-seen photos provided by Nitzche's son Jack Jr. Buy it and learn about the man behind almost three decades of American music.
