THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH SPAIN, BUT...

It just goes to show ya...all men are NOT created equal.
PS: Thanks to Christophe for providing the link, which I've shamelessly stolen and used for my own purposes.

Hi there. A nice piece of music. the picture looks like Tiny Tim?
My parents in law used to live down stairs from Tiny Tim in San Francisco and put up with several years of 'Tiptoe thru the Tulips' wafting through the ceiling. A most irritating song (I have it on a Dr Demento album by coincidence). I think the pop legend's screeches and falsetto yodels were directly responsible for why they eventually gave up and moved to Spain.
They thought it would be quieter..
Of course, if the picture is George Harrison, I shall have to think again.

Hey Lenox:
The photo is indeed Tiny Tim. I know of only two ukelele players who made careers of it: Tiny Tim, and Don "Tiny Bubbles" Ho. Since this is a family-oriented blog, I wouldn't dream of posting a photo of a Ho.
Damn...I'm showing my age with these pop culture references.
Anyway, the late, great George Harrison would be spinning in his grave if he knew that a man in southeast Spain couldn't differentiate his likeness from Tiny Tim's.
But of course, George isn't spinning in any grave...because he has been reincarnated. Brooklyn Beckham, perhaps?

Hey! That guy is pretty amazing but I was hoping for some sordid story about Tiny Tim. But I guess that would be old news since he died about 10 years ago. Oh - maybe he was sited with Elvis!

There are some closets that I don't want to crawl into. Tiny Tim's is definitely one of them.
