God Bless Tiny Tim



Came across this fella Tiny Tim (Herbert B. Khaury) on spotify. A bizarre 6ft tall falsetto ukulele player born in the 30s and rose to fame in the 60's and onwards playing on various tv shows and at festivals all around the USA. A sad story of naivety being financially taken advantage of left him with very little money but this album sold over 200,000 and in my eyes hes a bit of a legend.
Give it a listen 'I got you babe' is a particular gem.
