Tiny Tim - List of Works

"My greatest unfulfilled ambition," Tiny told Playboy back in 1970, "is to be one of the astronauts or even the first singer on the Moon. But most of all, I'd love to see Christ come back to crush the spirit of hate and make men put down their guns. I'd also like just one more hit single."

Special Information from Mr. Harve Mann

Around 1977 my vocal duo HARVE & CHAREE were touring as Tiny's opening act with me doubling as his piano player. Mr. Tim recorded the vocals on these two songs in Tampa Florida where we were doing a nearby engagement. Tiny was very kind and supportive of my music. There were some other songs of mine that Tiny wanted to do but sadly we never got to record them. As a side note, I have always been extremely proud of the production Mr. Sharp did along with Tiny's performance on KEEPING MY TROUBLES TO MYSELF. Thanks! - Harve Mann, 2008

Review Summary: Luna Park is an aged amusement park located in an area of prime real estate in Sydney Australia. Tiny Tim, at the time of this documentary, was an aged entertainer, who mined all of popular songwriting history for his performances. Both of them came together in 1979 for Tim's first attempt to set a world record for non-stop singing. Without attempting to comment on the eccentric singer's life or seek a deeper meaning in it, this documentary screens moments from his entire career as a celebrity, going back to his marriage to "Miss Vicky" on the Johnny Carson show. Tiny Tim was a curiously charismatic, gawky, beak-nosed man who played a ukelele, sang in a falsetto voice, and had extremely long, wavy hair. He was also an unparalleled scholar of popular music going back to the mid-nineteenth century, with a repertoire of tens of thousands of songs. In fact, so extensive was his knowledge that he was much sought-after by scholars and musicologists around the world. Despite the limitations of his persona and performance technique which would normally have resulted in his being only a novelty act, he had an astonishingly long and successful performing career. The other focus of this documentary is Luna Park, which was for Sydney residents what Coney Island is for New Yorkers. At one point it was closed as a result of a series of well-publicized fatal accidents, probably caused by sabotage arranged by unscrupulous developers who coveted the land it was on. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide
