Tim Weisberg, Part 1: 1971 ST, 1972 Hurtwood Edge

Posted by on









Here's another truly unfairly unknown artist.  Discography here.

Real Name: Timothy Jules Weisberg
American jazz flutist and composer, born Jan. 1,1943 in Hollywood, California.

First album came out in 1971 and has credits for compositions here.  Note there are a couple of cover songs.  The vibes player whose unbelievable name is Lynn Blessing cowrote or wrote many of the tracks with Tim.  The music which is instrumental of course is very light and approachable in general but, to my surprise, many, sometimes a majority of the songs are interesting beyond the usual expected simplicity of the easy listening arrangements, with his flute gently playing above the typical accompaniment (rhythm section, piano, guitar, vibes).  Occasionally the production is a little more fleshed out (on same albums) but usually it's the straightforward backing you'd expect, without orchestral arrangements.  Starting with his ST 1971 LP he went on to put out album after album roughly yearly until the end of the 80s and even thereafter, in the grunge decade of the 90s.
Of course, I didn't form an opinion of those later ones since I didn't have the courage to listen to them.

Anyways let's start from the beginning, from more than half a century ago, back in 1971.  
Sunshine in Her Hair is by Lynn Blessing:




The credits for his second album from 1972 can be found on this particular page.
Is Hurtwood Edge referencing the place in the UK where Eric Clapton's house was? see here.
The title track is by drummer Jim Gordon:
 



Another truly lovely composition called Summers Past (which is credited to Lynn Blessing and Tim):
