Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
Answer:
The title track, "L. A. Break Down (And Take Me In)", was written by Larry Marks, a producer, songwriter and executive who worked for Columbia, A&M Records, and Warner Bros. Inc.
Not to be confused with Jack Lawrence's "Linda" that was a massive hit for Buddy Clark in 1946, this "Linda" was written by singer/songwriter Randy Newman. He also contributed "Love Story" and "I Think It's Goin' To Rain Today".
The jazz classic "'Round Midnight", most closely identified with the pianist Thelonious Monk, was composed by Monk with lyrics by Bernie Hanighen and Cootie Williams.
"Since I Fell For You", a smash hit for Lenny Welch a few years before Jack laid it down, was written by Buddy Johnson.
Another jazz standard, "You've Changed" was written by Bill Carey and Carl Fischer
Gordon Jenkins penned the plaintive standard "Good-Bye" as well as "But I Loved You".
The hauntingly beautiful "Lost In The Stars" comes from Kurt Weill and Maxwell Anderson's Broadway musical of the same name based on South African author Alan Paton's novel "Cry, the Beloved Country".
DuBose Heyward and George Gershwin wrote "My Man's Gone Now" for the opera "Porgie and Bess", based on Heyward's novel "Porgie".
About the red herrings
"I'm Falling in Love Again" from "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg" and "Long Ago Last Night" are on Jack's 1968 album "If You Ever Leave Me", while "The Windmills of Your Mind", "Pieces Of Dreams" and "Nobody Knows" can be found on 1971's "Jack Jones Sings Michel Legrand".
