Cy Timmons - The World’s Greatest Unknown LP
Originally released in 1974; Private press classical guitar & voice only masterpiece from local Atlanta hero Cy Timmons originally released in small batch quantities on Timmon’s own Erewhon Music label.
“Timmons was something of a local hero often seen playing at Atlanta’s Café Erewhon, which he owned and operated. His style, often dubbed “batida Americana,” blended American pop, jazz, and soul with an unusual bossa nova technique marked by guitar percussion and a sort of vocal mimicry. Timmons would manipulate his voice to mimic a variety of instruments, including flute, percussion, trombone and synthesizer. It’s a bit strange, but it’s also completely beautiful and something you really have to hear for yourself.”
