Trees--A Superior Version of "Polly On The Shore"
Here's a great version of that old sea ballad "Polly On The Shore" (author unknown--earliest version from 1744) by the band Trees, included on their January, 1971-released album "On The Shore."
Excellent vocals by Celia Humphris, who sadly passed away last year, with a beautifully paced, hauntingly passionate lyrical electric guitar solo at the end by lead guitarist Barry Clarke. Packs a memorable punch, indeed, IMOPE (in my own personal estimation).
