Tiny Tim was an iconoclast in a time when iconoclasts were two a penny. In the 60s he had a huge number 1 hit with Tiptoe Through the Tulips, he played with The Band, knew Dylan and hung out with the Beatles. Though his popularity suffered after the sixties he’s always maintained a strong cult following and his albums are certainly worth a listen.
Here’s an excellent cover of Nowhere Man from the Beatles 1968 Christmas record.
I think though, for all his achievements, appearing as a musical guest in the first episode, Help Wanted, of SpongeBob SquarePants, tops the lot.
