Randy loves L.A., but he doesn't like anybody watching him eat. Even Deborah Vance.

Today 1 & 9 pm and Sat. at noon: a show about Randy Newman w/biographer @roberthilburn. The book blew me away, and Hilburn had a good time. (We recorded with him Thurs.) A lot of Newman's songs sound like they were written for the present moment. youtube.com/watch?v=SPhfSq12…

Was #ShortPeople written by #RandyNewman as a statement against prejudice or did Randy just think the song was funny. Answer is on my website. roberthilburnonline.com click on the page "Inside Randy Newman." Other cool stories from my biography of Randy are also on the page

If you enjoy audio books, I highly recommend my son--Rob, Jr.'s--narration of my new #RandyNewman biography. He not only reads my words with authority, he reads Randy's quotes with a coloring that--I swear--sounds like Randy talking. Beautiful job.
