Songwriter of Sounds
A.k.a. William Earl Martin
William E. Martin (died January 27, 2016), also known as Bill Martin, was an American musician, songwriter, screenwriter, comedic and voice actor. A friend of Monkee Michael Nesmith, Martin wrote the first song ("All of Your Toys") to be recorded with all four Monkees singing and playing. A later teaming with singer-songwriter Harry Nilsson resulted in the song "Rainmaker", released in two different versions by Nilsson (on single and on LP) in 1969. Nilsson also covered some of Martin's songs, including "Fairfax Rag" and "City Life". Martin released his own album in the late 1960s, but it failed to sell. Martin also wrote the song "Evergreen (Earth Anthem)", recorded by Cyrus Faryar, The Turtles, Dan Fogelberg and others.
