Trees On the Shore 1970 uk, progressive folk

Trees - On the Shore (1970 uk, progressive folk) Having honed their repertoire on the road, Trees returned to the studio in October 1970 to cut their second and last LP, the masterful On The Shore. Another beautifully-judged blend of original and traditional material, it received extravagant praise but failed to break through commercially, spelling the end for the band’s original incarnation. ‘An exceptionally intoxicating brew of gothic folk songs, eastern-tinged guitars, male-female vocal interplay and solid drum grooves. Impeccable stuff’ Shindig magazine A splendid fusion of austere English folk and the fluid guitar lines of America’s West Coast, and as good as anything produced by their contemporaries in the field’ Record Collector Tracklist A1 Soldiers Three 0:00 A2 Murdoch 1:51 A3 Streets Of Derry 7:01 A4 Sally Free And Easy Bass – Tony Cox 14:33 B1 Fool 24:45 B2 Adams Toon 30:07 B3 Geordie 31:20 B4 While The Iron Is Hot 36:27 B5 Little Sadie 39:49 B6 Polly On The Shore 43:00 Credits Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar [12 String], Mandolin – David Costa Design [Sleeve, Photos Tinting] – Hipgnosis (2) Drums, Vocals, Tambourine – Unwin Brown Engineer – Vic Gamm Lead Guitar, Dulcimer – Barry Clarke Liner Notes – John Tobler Producer, Arranged By – Tony Cox Vocals – Celia Humphris Vocals, Bass, Acoustic Guitar [12 String], Piano – Bias Boshell
