Harry Nilsson - Me And My Arrow

So I was listening to some Blackalicious*, and I got to wondering who they were sampling, and it turns out Me And My Arrow had nothing to do with James Taylor (why did I think that?) but instead was part of the soundtrack to one of those hoary 70s animated specials with Ringo Starr in it, and that made me think about Thomas The Tank Engine, and Marx. So, uh, wherever we go, everyone knows, it’s me and my arrow.

*click through to listen. or go to lala. whatever: 

**Tumblr doesn’t seem to like the embedded .mp3 of Me And My Arrow above; you have to manually scrub forward to listen. Or go here.
