Tim Hardin
Tim Hardin was born in Eugene, Oregon, on December 23, 1941, and died in Los
Angeles on December 29, 1980. The life and work of this singer-songwriter were
marked by drugs: his addiction to heroin was stronger than anything else, and he
died of it, aged just 39. We owe him a few gems of 1960s folk music, such as the
standard "If I Were A Carpenter", known to the general public in France thanks
to Johnny Hallyday's cover version, or "Reason to Believe". As well as a handful
of wrinkle-free albums.
