  • Summary

  • Guests: Andru Chapman, Bridget St. John & Steve Gunn. In this Epysode we delve into the career of an artist that spanned 5 decades, who recorded more than 50 albums, was adored by generations of musicians and who critics fawned over...yet hardly anyone knows his name. Michael was an immensely skilled guitarist and an excellent songwriter who released album after album to critical acclaim. Even his last albums - more than 50 years after his debut were considered among his best. Here was an artist who never settled, continually pushing musical boundaries...maybe that's why he remained on the fringes. Fully Qualified Survivor is universally considered his best album and we dive into it track by track, though an artist with this body of work has to be explored further, so we also make pit stops throughout the rest of his amazing career too. Michael Chapman is a name most people have never heard of and that's a shame, as I can't think of another artist with this amount of incredible work who is more deserving of recognition. I hope you dig Fully Qualified Survivor and the rest of Michael's incredible career as much as I do. -FJ ===LINKS=== If you like this show, consider supporting us on Patreon for as little as $1/month.
