Jimmy Webb, Part 2 (MacArthur Park)

Welcome to Rock and Roll Flashback!  I'm Bill Price, and in this edition of Rock and Roll Flashback Podcasts, I’ll again be spotlighting songwriter, composer and singer Jimmy Webb.  Jimmy’s career in the music industry is impressive, having accumulated a string of pop classics and recorded by several well-known artists.  In Jimmy Webb, Part 2, I’ll focus on the story behind the hit song “MacArthur Park”.

Although, Jimmy Webb is well known for having written many hit songs, “MacArthur
Park” is most likely his most famous composition.  Like other Webb songs, the romantic
breakup with Susan Horton was the inspiration for “MacArthur Park”.
