Description from the seller
Michael Chapman – Fully Qualified Survivor (Harvest – SHVL 764) made in Holland 1970 original 1st pressing gatefold LP | vinyl: VG+ --> vinyl starts of with A1 (The Aviator), which has some side noise (VG(+), then quality gets better to satisfying soon. a strong VG+ is my guess | it was a great pleasure again to listen to this, before saying goodbye --> some wonderful music.... | gatefold - some side noise in silent passages. | Dutch issue originally released in a UK gatefold cover.
English singer-songwriter and guitarist (born: 24 January 1941, Leeds, Yorkshire, England - died: 10 September 2021, Brampton, England).
A self-taught musician from an industrial southern suburb of Leeds, Chapman paid his way through art college playing in skiffle bands, strip clubs and jazz trios, plus a brief stint roadying for John Cage (“He did a recital at Leeds Art Gallery. I took him to the market to buy fish to put in his piano”). He later packed up his teaching job at Bolton College of Art, becoming a big name on the Cornwall acoustic scene. As the tale goes, one rainy night in the late 1960s he went to a pub in Cornwall, but didn’t have the money to enter. “So I said, ‘I’ll tell you what, I don’t want to stand outside in the rain; I’ll play guitar for half an hour for you,’” he once wrote. “They offered me a job for the rest of the summer and I’ve been at it ever since.”
He first appeared on the London and Cornwall folk music circuits in 1967, alongside John Martyn and Roy Harper. He recorded his debut album in 1969 for the Harvest label which released 3 subsequent albums. After the release of Wrecked Again (1971), Chapman parted with Harvest, choosing to sign to Decca’s subsidiary Deram, where he began adding electric guitar and harder rhythms to his work. Several albums were released on Deram during the early to mid 1970s including Savage Amusement (1976) produced by Memphis legend Don Nix.
