The sweetest, strangest voice of 1968 sounds a lot like a horror movie now. Tiny Tim's ukulele-and-falsetto “Tiptoe Through the Tulips” hit the Top 20, and decades later filmmakers keep borrowing that eerie sweetness for their scariest scenes. The rest of this debut is pure psychedelic vaudeville, from “Strawberry Tea” to “Stay Down Here Where You Belong,” and it belongs on the turntable at the Halloween party that's gone a little weird.
