Rose,Tim Musician / Gambler CD

2015 two CD set containing a pair of albums from the singer/songwriter. A contemporary of Tim Hardin, Tim Buckley and Bob Dylan, Tim Rose was an influential singer songwriter, who has long been held in high regard as an outstanding interpreter of songs. During the µ90s he rode a wave of rediscovery following Nick Cave's patronage, covering a Rose song 'Long Time Man' and inviting Rose to appear at the Royal Albert Hall with him in 1997, followed by UK TV performances. Sadly cut short by Rose untimely passing away in 2002. RPM presents the recordings made during 1975-1977. It resulted in one LP, The Musician released in 1975 through Atlantic Records, and a second, The Gambler recorded during 1976/7, which was unreleased at the time. Both LPs feature a stellar cast of contributing session musicians. Notably featuring Rose's good friend at the time Andy Summers on guitar on both albums, and BJ Cole - steel guitar on both albums also.
