Sail Away

by Randy Newman

Sail Away cover art

Randy Newman's third album is an absolute masterclass in deeply cynical, razor-sharp musical satire dressed up in gorgeous, vaudevillian piano rock. 'Sail Away' balances remarkably melodic, beautifully orchestrated traditional pop arrangements with fiercely sarcastic, profoundly political songwriting that tackles complex American history with a biting, bittersweet humor.
