Keltner On Randy Newman

 
 
“What I loved about Randy was you didn’t know what was coming next in the studio. He would sing the song for you before the session, but then he would sing it differently once you started playing. The goal was to create magic, and that happens by musicians bouncing off each other, one guy rushing here a little bit, then pulling back. You want everyone to feel comfortable in the studio. In one of the first sessions I worked with Randy, the lyrics were so funny I couldn’t control my laughter, so I blew a take. It made me really mad at myself because the take was going so well. After that, I had to purposely not pay attention to the lyrics to make sure that didn’t happen again.”

Excerpt From: Robert Hilburn. “A Few Words in Defense of Our Country.”
