Randy Newman [author]
Most of the songs from the Randy Newman Creates Something New Under The Sun lp are known, sometimes even better known by others. Sometimes these versions are even older than the author's. People like Alan Price, Dusty Springfield, Judy Collins and Harry Nilsson nailed many a Randy Newman composition, mostly in a more memorable way than the author. Manfred Mann's So Long Dad is even older than Alan Price's.
