Thank you. Never heard of Michael Chapman, but what a player. Accurate and clear picking, nothing overly complex, just a very clean style which sounds fantastic. Love discovering new artists (old but new to me), so I shall be going down the rabbit hole today.

New to me as well but it seems he was quite prolific and there's quite a bit of his stuff on YT that I'm enjoying listening to. Isn't music great? Still 'discovering' new stuff in my 60s.

Loads of Michael Chapman's stuff on Youtube which is great - excellent bloke. NikGnashers - if you haven't already discovered her, have a look for Bridget St John (who has done some nice stuff with MC in more recent years). And just in case, give Wizz Jones a look too - I'm sure you'd enjoy! Keith

There's a Michael Chapman compilation record called Trainsong which covers a lot of ground.

Wizz I discovered about 15 years ago, when I was going through Renbourn videos, and saw him play with John, which started my journey into that rabbit hole. I know a lot of modern technology is annoying and I am quite 'anti' a lot of it, especially social media as I don't do FaceBook, Twitter/X, Instagram, TikTok, or anything similar, but thank heavens for YouTube because without it I would not have discovered dozens of amazing 50's / 60's / 70's fingerstyle Folk musicians.
