Classic Album Series

The Classic Album Series highlights records from the past, forgotten, overlooked and cherished alike, selected for their influence, relevance and worth.
In this edition, writer, musician and filmmaker Chris Wade looks at the two albums made by the legendary folk rock band Trees, both in 1970, The Garden of Jane Delawney and On the Shore. Overlooked at the time, they have now become seminal albums of their era, influential and timeless to a certain listener. This book goes into the making of them, but mostly focuses on the music's personal effect on the listener. As a bonus there is also a Q and A with the band's singer, Celia Humphris, conducted by the author.
