Over the past 40 years, JIMMY WEBB's accomplishments as a composer, arranger, songwriter, and performer have made him a truly iconic figure in the music world. The only artist ever to receive Grammy awards for music, lyrics, and orchestration, Jimmy's name can be found on a staggering number of songwriter halls of fame, lifetime achievement awards, and "best singles of all time" lists. His songs, however speak for themselves. A short list of the amazing string of hit singles that Jimmy has written over the years must include "Wichita Lineman" (performed by Glen Campbell); "Didn't We" (Richard Harris); "The Moon's A Harsh Mistress" (Joe Cocker); "The Highwayman" (Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, and Kris Kristofferson)...and that's just the tip of the iceberg!

Lauded as "one of the real, real geniuses" by the late Sammy Cahn, as "one of the most innovative and musically proficient songwriters of our generation" by Billy Joel, Jimmy himself says simply: "I like words. I like the way they clash around together and bang up against each other, especially in songs."
