Thank you for spotlighting a wonderful songwriter who’s name should be placed alongside the likes of Jimmy Webb, Randy Newman and many more. Second Avenue is a beautiful song no matter which artist is smart enough to cover it. Great job highlighting this gem and it’s creator.
Thank you, Stephen! I knew you'd know this song (and Tim, at least on record)! You're right about his legacy, and how he should be so much more heralded in pop songwriting history! I can't wait for you to dig into my queue of tunes all set to undergo the "Inside Tracks" x-ray!
I've already got 2 lined up...I'll give you (and only you!) a hint as to the next one....shhhh....keep it under your hat! It's "one Moore" song, and can you say "tartan plaid"? Tim's flexibility with a song style was also without peer!😀🎸🎵🎶😁👍
I only knew Art's version all these years, from "Angel Clare"...now about to see Tim Moore perform in Woodstock,NY's Byrdcliffe Theatre! I'm sure he will sing it! À great song!
"Second Avenue" was SO in Art's wheelhouse! I'm glad you discovered the song's composer here....and, I'm envious you get to see Tim in concert! Great to hear he's still performing! I would all but guarantee he'll play "Second Avenue"! Thanks so much for reading, commenting, and enjoying, Martin!
