For All My Little Friends is the third album by Tiny Tim.[1] It was released in August 1969 by Reprise Records.[2][3]
Background
[edit]Intended for children, For All My Little Friends was Tiny Tim's final album for Reprise,[2] although he remained with the label until early 1971.[4] The album was produced by Richard Perry's engineer, Gene Shively, although Perry himself produced the tracks "On The Good Ship Lollipop", "Mickey The Monkey", "I'm A Lonesome Little Raindrop", and "What The World Needs Now Is Love". "The Viper" was originally released on Tiny Tim's first album, God Bless Tiny Tim. Justin Martell notes that "snippets of Tiny's narration" featured on the album were reused from Tiny Tim's 2nd Album.[2]
The album was nominated for Best Recording for Children at the 1970 Grammy Awards, becoming Tiny Tim's only award nomination.[5]
