Information/Write-up

Throughout the 1960’s and 70’s, Tim played in various local bands in Montreal and Toronto. During Expo ’67 in Montreal, Tim’s band (‘The Woolton Village Fete’, which was named after the village fair in England where John Lennon and Paul McCartney met) had a contract to play for staff parties every other Saturday night. The parties would go from 8 o’clock at night to the 3AM the next morning. After the first four or five sets when the band had exhausted their repertoire, they would make up songs for the next several hours. Frequently they would get requests for a song they’d made up the week before and have to improvise all over again.

Tim moved back to Toronto in 1971 and began playing with several local bands including ‘Gingerfoot’ https://citizenfreak.com/titles/319079-gingerfoot-capturing-rythmn-b-w-mystics and ‘Sunshine River’. He released records and toured throughout Southern Ontario in the mid seventies and in 1979 Tim formed ARIEL RECORDS. With Ariel, Tim has played with and produced several bands including ‘Foxrun Band’ https://citizenfreak.com/artists/95291-foxrun-band, ‘Darkstar’ https://citizenfreak.com/artists/93750-darkstar, ‘The Play’, ‘Sierra Blue’, ‘Chimera’, and ‘Three Stand Out’ (which was released on AXE RECORDS).

In 1985, Tim started his own recording studio – TEMPEST SOUND and at the same time he began work on instrumental recordings for several small films. Out of these projects came Tim’s first instrumental release ‘Windy Nights’ by ‘The Fly By Night Orchestra’. With the help of Paul Richards and CHAY-FM ‘Windy Nights’ became popular throughout Canada and the United States and continues to receive substantial airplay today. With the success of ‘Windy Nights’, Tim formed STUFFED RECORDS with Eleanor Wright in 1989. Their first CD release in 1991 was the ‘Stuffed Records Sampler Volume 1’ and along with tracks from ‘The Fly By Night Orchestra’, the CD also included the instrumental acts ‘The PS Band’, ‘Panorama’, and ‘Blue Guitar’.

‘Blue Guitar’ was immediately popular and although there were only three tracks on the initial CD, they have received constant airplay since their release. This new ‘Blue Guitar’ CD attempts to capture and broaden the appeal of those introductory tracks. “I wanted these pieces to have a reflective quality about them”, says Tim. “I’ve always liked the instrumental acts of the sixties because they were short, melodic, and memorable. Unlike songs, you can almost write your own individual lyrics to an instrumental. The early instrumental tracks made you feel good whenever you heard them on the radio and that’s exactly what I hope people will feel about the new Blue Guitar CD.
