I remember a lot of his songs from the '70's, including "Short People." I've just never cared for him. I know he's done a number of scores for films, too.
Randy Newmann penned The soundtrack for one of my favorite movies and books of all time..."Ragtime" by E. L. Doctorow.
I especially heart "Train Ride" after taking the Amtrak from TPA to MIA last year. Channelled that song as we traversed the beautiful orange groves of Central Florida, southward to such picturesque stations as Palm Beach, Ft. Lauderdale, and a romantic rendevous in Miami.
