TIM HARDIN

Talented and innovative folk stylist who widely influenced the singer/songwriter movement 

with his poetic material and heartfelt singing. A gentle, soulful singer who owed as much 

to blues and jazz as folk, Tim Hardin produced an impressive body of work in the late '60s 

without ever approaching either mass success or the artistic heights of the best singer/songwriters. 

When future Lovin' Spoonful producer Erik Jacobsen arranged for Hardin's first recordings 

in the mid-'60s, Hardin was no more than an above-average white blues singer, 

in the mold of many fellow folkys working the East Coast circuit. By the time of his 1966 debut, 

however, he was writing confessional folk-rock songs of considerable grace and emotion

While not as prolific as Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, or Neil Young, the prototypical folk-rocker 

Tim Hardin remains one of the greatest singer/songwriters, as much for his masterly 

delivery and subtle, jazz-inflected accompaniments as for the enduring songcraft 

of his classics "If I Were a Carpenter," "Reason to Believe," "Misty Roses," 

and "The Lady Came from Baltimore." Opening with "Carpenter," 

a song on the same level as "Like a Rolling Stone" or "Norwegian Wood," 

Tim Hardin 2 is a lovely, all too brief set from tune heaven. 

An unlikely highlight might just be its very last song, "Tribute to Hank Williams," 

which sounds nothing like a country song, but manages in just a few lines 

to bring the myth of Hank Williams forth into the beautiful chaos of the '60s: 

"Goodbye Hank Williams, my friend. I didn't know you 

but I've been to places you've been."...(AllMusic)
