Tim Weisberg – Hurtwood Edge

According to several comments posted here, you’d think Weisberg’s 1972 Hurtwood Edge was one of the best albums of all time. They cannot understand why it has not been re-issued on CD. I’ll tell you why – there is only a very small audience for Weisberg’s brand of easy listening, and while Weisberg is certainly an excellent flute player, he is no shining star as a solo recording artist. Despite having some “moments”, the only truly memorable track from this album is the almost funky Time Cube. Weisberg is now a part of the Verve group, but based on the lack of activity on his artist page (and the general decline of CD sales), I wouldn’t expect to see any Weisberg re-issues any time soon.
