I can’t hear you over that whistling sound.

Tiny Tim Live ‘68

Fudgeland posted an awesome Tiny Tim bootleg today from September of 1968 (the height of Tinymania). The beginning of “Rock-A-Bye Baby Days” is missing, but the rest of the concert is so seriously friggin’ good you won’t even notice. Tim was just on for this performance. If you’ve never heard musical murder before, download this concert, ’cause I can’t think of a better example.

    Tiny Tim is just not appreciated like he should be. People think he’s just a big doofus with a ukulele and a weird voice, but the man was a musical encyclopedia. I got to interview him a couple of years before he died, he was very intelligent and extremely gracious.

    Well, I sorta met him… it was a phone interview. I should have that tape somewhere, if I can track it down I’ll give your blog an exclusive.
