White east coast blues singer from the sixties, one of many trying to make money that way back then. Tom however became more known when he started to mix in a more blue-ish folk sound. Too bad he also started to mix in drugs and died of a classic overdose after not publishing an album for 7 years, so he only left us with a few albums.
He wrote a fair number of good songs made famous by other artists. If I were a Carpenter becoming the biggest hit by Bobby Darin.
This particularly album contains mostly blues tracks. If you collect blues its nice to add to your collection.
