Tiny Tim & The Purple Cross
Raji's
Hollywood, CA.
August 20th 1993

Reastered audience recording.
Great gig, chatty crowd.
America's answer to George Formby?
You may consider Tiny Tim to be a novelty act.
Falsetto 'Tiptoe Through the Tulips'...right?
But you'd be shortchanging him.
His genuine knowledge and desire to keep alive
a certain type of American music/history is palpable.
Part of my weird-week stuff...but good!
regards
Titus
