By: Blue Pie Records Tiny Tim, the ukulele-playing singer of 1920s ditties who was a true icon of the 1960s, was born Herbert Khaury on April 12, 1932, in New York City. Her served as a contrast to the musicians of the time, an anachronism that defied definition and expectation. Just as famous for his off stage antics, reclusive tendencies and intriguing behaviors, Tiny Tim captured the imagination of his public. He became a divisive public figure with his iconic falsetto challenging public perceptions. He worked hard, cultivating his image as the sweet gentle giant performing under the moniker of “Tiny Tim”, at once both out of place and current, becoming famous for his covers of contemporary hits. Hal Stein, Tiny's cousin and close friend has described Lowell’s biography stating: “Throughout his lifetime, Tiny Tim was a repository of recorded music stemming from the early days of vaudeville to the latest chart favorites. But despite all these influences he remained a true original perfecting his performances as an outreach of his personality. True, he had some strange traits, but they did not impede on his enthusiastic kindness to people he loved, to the musicians he accompanied, and to the many listeners he met. In the age of celebrity, he functioned as the complete entertainer. Lowell Tarling has provided Tiny with a living biography and given us a definitive incentive to re-listen to his recording and re-visit his numerous You Tube postings. You get the feeling that somewhere Tiny is standing on his tiptoes, strumming his ukulele, blowing kisses and saying, ‘God bless you all’!” This books is a must read for anyone interested in learning the real story of Tiny’s life. This biography comes straight from the source and shows a side of the artist that has never before been seen.
