Thread Name: Lyr Req/Add: The Taoist Tale (Tucker Zimmerman)
Subject: Tucker Zimmerman Song
Many years ago I bought an album in London from an itinerant musician called Tucker Zimmerman. It was so popular that it went missing after one of those parties we used to have in the seventies. A year ago I saw a copy advertised in a collectors catalogue but it had already gone when I phoned. The proprietor asked who the hell this guy was because he had had over two hundred enquiries and realised he had seriously under-priced it. Anyway, the title song was (I think) called JUST ANOTHER NORMAL DAY and the chorus was "When Custer took his fall, he said to his wife, well baby that's life, And you can't win 'em all." Anyone know the rest of it? And is Tucker still with us? Web searches throw up some famous people covering his songs but nothing on the man himself.
