LoL,

I STILL have one of his albums! Or was it his only album?

When we were kids, we used to put it on at 78 RPM's and laugh our toasted butts off! :lol:

:lol: :lol: Thanks, Mitch

Always loved Tiny Tim. He was a bosom buddy of the Fab Four in their heyday, to clue in the younger folks who may not know. Tiny Tim was Rock 'n' Roll Royalty.

Several references were made to Tiny Tim on Spongebob Squarepants. One of his songs, "Livin' in the Sunlight", was played on the pilot episode, too.

We used to turn on the TV and watch him just for a giggle, then turn down the sound and say rude things about him.

Tim kind of rocked in his own weird, weird way. Wish I could have met him.

I'm listening to his first album now. Never listened to all of it before. So far it's really really good.
