@spacepatrolman That's true but there was a lot of publicity about him and that was one of the reasons--that he was so young but created such great music despite that. He was even photographed alongside Richard Harris on the MacArthur's Park sleeve. In fact that was how I first became aware of him. Still he didn't get the recognition he should have had.

@spacepatrolman As I understand it he didn't want any of his kids to pursue it although at least one is a composer in his own right.

Jimmy Webb has been around a long time but has really been short-changed recognition-wise.
