TIM HOLLIER ~ TIM HOLLIER NIGHT WINGS 03 ~ UK ~ Folk-Rock Recorded: 1968 - 1971 Released: 2004 Singer / composer Tim HollierFind albums by this artist was one of the greatest troubadours of the British Isles, sadly undiscovered and forgotten. He recorded three splendid albums between 1968 and 1971 (“Message To A HarlequinFind albums with this title”, “Tim HollierFind albums with this title” and “SkysailFind albums with this title”), which are absolutely marvelous examples of the late 1960s Folk-Rock, with beautifully poetic lyrics and exquisite melodies. What makes these albums especially interesting is the fact that the fist and last were arranged by the brilliant John CameronFind albums by this artist, whose intelligent orchestral arrangements are superb examples of his mastery. Not surprisingly the flute of Harold McNairFind albums by this artist (Cameron’s frequent collaborator) can also be heard. This album collects 23 songs, collected from the a.m. three albums, creating a great portrait of Hollier’s work. The only pity is that this is not a double album, collecting those three albums in their entirety. People not familiar with Hollier’s work should definitely investigate this album, as well as all British Folk-Rock enthusiasts.
