Michael Chapman - Among The Trees - 1975

Among the trees I have lain and passed my golden days Among the trees I have spent my summers in a haze Of lazy afternoons, watching all the rain, as it patterns the verandah, then disappears the sun How I wish I could return to those summers once again How I wish I could just sit in the presence of a friend, Making music or just listening to the birds so far from sight Watching as the dark shades of evening turn to night, Gone the sun... Michael Chapman. First Broadcast: 21-MAR-1975 Was followed by “Deal Gone Down“ One of a number of appearances on the OGWT Unfortunately his 1970 TV appearance with Pete and Dud has been wiped although he featured on Dutch and German TV as well as the UK’s Sight and Sound In Concert. Hugely popular today with most of his records available. Song from the albums “Window“ and “Pleasures of the Street“ both, as here, with Rick Kemp on bass.
