Tim Hardin 2 is the second album by folk artist Tim Hardin, released in 1967.
The original LP release has a long poem on the back cover by Hardin titled "A Question of Birth..."
Tim Hardin 2 contains Hardin's most popular and much-covered composition "If I Were a Carpenter", most notably Bobby Darin, whose version peaked at No. 8 in the US and No. 9 in the UK in 1966.
Tim Hardin 2 was re-released on CD in 1998 by Repertoire along with Tim Hardin 1.
In his review for Allmusic, music critic Richie Unterberger wrote "Tim Hardin 2 is probably his best single album, on which he eschewed blues nearly entirely and forged a distinctive folk-rock voice..."
All songs written by Tim Hardin.
