For our 59th Kritzerland show, for only the second time in our history, we salute a pop songwriter who came to prominence in the late 1960s - the great Paul Williams. Like our first salute to pop writer Randy Newman, Paul Williams not only wrote hits for any number of great singers (The Carpenters, Three Dog Night, Helen Reddy and on and on), but like Randy Newman he also has had a prolific career writing for film, television, and the theater. From his breakout hit, "We've Only Just Begun" (originally written for a Crocker Bank commercial), Williams amassed an astonishing number of classics very quickly, including "Rainy Days and Mondays," "Just An Old-Fashioned Love Song," "Let Me Be the One," "I Won't Last a Day Without You," and "You and Me Against the World." Additionally, he wrote several film musicals, including Brian De Palma's Phantom of the Paradise, Alan Parker's Bugsy Malone, Jim Henson's The Muppet Movie (which produced one of his biggest hits, the Oscar-nominated song "The Rainbow Connection"), and the Barbra Streisand version of A Star is Born (for which he won the Oscar for "Evergreen"). He also penned songs for the films Cinderella Liberty (with John Williams), The Secret of NIMH (with Jerry Goldsmith), Agatha (with Johnny Mandel) and many others. As always with Kritzerland shows, you'll hear the classics along with a few you've probably never heard before. We've assembled a great cast and our guest star is a Kritzerland first-timer, the great Gloria Loring. Kritzerland is produced and hosted by Bruce Kimmel and co-produced by Adryan Russ.
