He was really an artist, wasn't he? So misunderstood. It seems like he was born 40 years after his time.

He might not have been the best looking guy but he had a beautiful tone of voice and this song was made for him its delightful.

You Philly folks may recognize his shorter-haired,organ-playing alter ego,Larry Ferrari...

1968-saw Tiny in N.Y. Open for some Big Rock acts . We, at First didnt know what to make of it and Of Course Laughed a bit. But He was very respected in The Rock and general music Business ;The Show was ,The Rascals ,headlining .Vanilla Fudge. The Hassles [unknown except locally,Billy Joel on key's] and The Vagrants [Leslie West of Mountain Fame ] It was quite a show :Later Tiny appeared on all the major Variety shows and with every Top Star of that Time ...He, Braved the Times w/ success...

@linguistmuz It was! Used copies available at Amazon. And if you don't mind mp3s, it can be purchased that way, too. (Amazon). I would love to see the DVD, though.

A beautiful recording by Paul Reller the Tampa Bay band, Clang.

It's funny that you say this, because he didn't actually write this song! It's an old tune from the 20s or 30s.
