Product Description
CD Description
Two seminal folk-rock albums on one CD from renowned American singer / song writer TIM HARDIN: Tim Hardin 1 (1966) and Tim Hardin 2 (1967). Two for the prce of One Raven presents two seminal folk-rock albums on one CD from renowned American singer / song writer TIM HARDIN: 'Tim Hardin 1' (1966) and 'Tim Hardin 2' (1967). A gentle, soulful singer and brilliant song writer, Hardin combined folk, blues and jazz to become a popular performer on the American East Coast folk circuit. Tim Hardin 1 produced by Erik Jacobsen, followed by Tim Hardin 2 a year later remain two of the most powerful, compelling and startling original works of the folk-rock era. They are packed with “confessional folk-rock songs of considerable grace and emotion” – All Music Guide. Dozens of performers have covered songs from these albums, including Johnny Cash and June Carter (‘If I Were a Carpenter’), Bobby Darin (‘If I Were a Carpenter’), Rod Stewart (‘Reason to Believe’), Scott Walker (‘Lady Came from Baltimore’), Fred Neil (‘Green Rocky Road’), the Nice (‘Hang on to a Dream’) etc. Hardin performed at Woodstock in 1969 and recorded several more albums before his death in 1980. This essential 2-for-1 CD includes six bonus tracks, and captures the very essence of Tim Hardin, one of popular music’s greatest song writers. With superb quality audio, detailed liner notes and color booklet.

I've been 'searching' for these two albums for years and to get them both on one cd is just brilliant.
Tim Hardin's voice and lyrics invoke a feeling of warmth mixed with sadness which was borne out by Tim's later years.
Wonderful time spent remembering the days when I first heard Hang On To A Dream and Don't Make Promises etc.

The best way to appreciate Tim Hardin's moment of greatness
12 April 2012

Tim Hardin was the archetypical 60's "genius artist." What he produced of quality was stunning, the length of time that he maintained this level of achievement was virtually microscopic, and, of course, heroin and assorted villians sapped him of motivation, vitality and inspiration. Really, just about all you need to know is on "Tim Hardin 1/Tim Hardin 2." Short, whisps of melodic and vocal genius "Speak like a Child," "Misty Roses," the obvious big ones ""Lady Came from Baltimore" and "If I were a Carpenter," lesser known but equally compelling "It'll Never Happen Again" (covered masterfully by Johnny Rivers on "Rewind"), many songs lasting less than two minutes. The two original albums were almost criminally short, but Raven generously fills up the disc with a couple of quality live tracks, followed by a few of the non-descript blues numbers that Hardin started out his career doing. What transition occured between faceless blues and timeless, fragile, immortal tunes is a mystery. "Tim Hardin 1/ Tim Hardin 2" is not cheap, but it is a key part of the 60's songwriter scene, as important and, to me, more compelling that Fred Neil, Eric Andersen and in terms of song quality (not socio-political concerns) better that even Bob Dylan.
