@phishbeat Or over 40 for that matter! As far as I am aware, he never toured.

Poor, poor Harry. I hate seeing him so obviously ill here. He was wonderful; one of a kind fer sure.
-
oh ok... now i've read the comment below me....
it is a shame though that he ruined his voice semi purposefully during a screaming/singing battle with john lennon... it was so beautiful.
-
but.... it's a well known fact that Harry Nilsson never played live....
-
Harry had a original and very noble purpose for being there. That was to support the NCBH after the loss of his dear friend John. His willingness to come out live on stage was something he before never did and it was an honor to have him do so....Drew (the band).

Well, at least his voice sounds better here than other videos I've seen of him singing at a Beatlefest....still, you can see that he's so far gone he couldn't hold a key if it sat on 'im. Poor Harry ......between John's brutal death and the fact that he'd become no more than a footnote in the music business rather than the huge talent he was, the poor guy didn't stand a chance.

@phishbeat I was there too, just a few feet away from ole Harry... he was blitzed off his ass - but damn, I miss him. I saw him later too by the elevator (he was even more smashed and two guys were holding him up) and I'll always remember - being the dopey kid I was I asked him if there was ever going to be a sequel to The Point - and he said that he actually had an idea for something called "Back To The Point", but nobody was interested. Then off he went, presumably up to his room. G'nite Harry

Nillson knew John and Ringo so he deserves to be there playing
One of the GREATEST singers ever! Miss you Harry! God Bless!

I was at this "show"...I feel very lucky know that I'm one of the few people under 40 who got a chance to see Harry Nilsson live.
