I saw Tim in concert when he joined Crowded House for the Woodface tour many years ago, but even then I just didn't connect with his music that much...until now. Just by chance, recently I stumbled onto Tim's website and watched the video for "Couldn't Be Done" off of Imaginary Kingdom-- and later heard it being played on the Sirius channel, Margaritaville. I went ahead and ordered the album after taking a liking to this song. And I have since been blown away by how good this album is! It has first place in my current rotation which includes Crowded House's new album and Colin Hay's as well. (BTW, I just saw Colin in Kettering and Crowded House in Chicago -- both awesome as anyone who has seen either live knows first hand). But I digress, because this album is a true "hidden gem" as was made clear by another reviewer. It amazes me that it seems to be flying well off of the radar screens of critics and the mass media, and staying off of terrestrial airwaves as far as I can tell. I know Tim is a shining star in his native land, but here in the United States he is largely unnoticed. That is a shame, especially with the new album which is phenomenal. I won't analyze each song, but they are all well-crafted and meticulous care has been taken in all details of arrangement and recording. Wow. Well done and I look forward to digging into Tim's archives for many months and probably years to come. Take a chance on picking this one up and I guarantee you WILL NOT be disappointed.  Comment | Permalink |  (Report this) Back To Top
