Just a quick note to echo the remarks about Robison. He was clearly
sophisticated. Lyrics are imaginative, and the language often skewered
exactly right for the causal listener and the image lovers. His propaganda
pieces during the war, the tomfoolery lyrics of some of he later releases
on MGM, and the humor in so much of what he released suggests he's too
easily overlooked. He also left a wonderful collection of his materials
that could give a young wanna be biographer a head start on success.
