Roger Chapman - Life In The Pond

Roger Chapman - Life In The PondA studio album by Roger Chapman is always an event. Since '66, when the British singer songwriter emerged as the voice of his generation with the seminal Family band, through every twist of his four decade solo career, Chappo's output has defied music industry protocol, challenged genre, and held up a mirror to the times. "I've never stopped writing," he reflects, "and with Life In The Pond, I felt the need to hear what I'd put down in music."
