Ju4dy Help: Tim Morgon at the Prison of Socrates (album) (11) Does anyone remember this album? 02 Jan 00


In the mid sixties, not sure when, '66?, my friends and I had an album by an artist named Tim (I think) something. Tim Buckley? Tim Hardin? I don't know. I don't think so. Three songs on that album that I remember very well, remember most of the words and chords, are: The Cat Came Back, Joey, and Levee. Levee has a chorus that goes "I don't know why I built me that levee, levee don't do me no good..." Joey starts out with "Like a windblown woman, the wind blows through the bunkhouse...like windblown woman, smellin fo where she's been...smellin of Oregon cherries or maybe Texas avacados, or maybe Arizona sugarbeets...the wind blows in and speaks to me, she sings 'Joey, Joey, Joey Joe, you been too long in one place, and it's time to go, time to go..." and so on. The Cat Came Back of course starts out with "Old Mr. Johnson had troubles of his own, he had an old yellow cat that just would not leave its home, tried and he tried to give that cat away, but the cat came back the very next day..." and so on. I would like to find get this album now, but my searches haven't led me there so far., since I don't know the artist's name, or the album title. Searches by the song titles haven't panned out. Thanks.
