    "The Green Man" was written by Bill O'Brien (Birmingham UK) as he watched the change of the seasons in his garden. Bill played the song after Ash played at the Rea River Roots Folk Club at The Tower of Song in Birmingham UK, and gave him permission to perform and record it.
    The Green man is a sculptural and pictorial motiff ...[f]ound in many cultures from many ages around the world, the Green Man is often related to natural vegetative deities. It is primarily interpreted as a symbol of rebirth, representing the cycle of growth each spring." (en.wikipedia.o...)

    Love the song and it's a gorgeous arrangement, beautifully played. (The captions are a bit messy IMO, with inconsistent duration. I was trying to spot the cellist's name) /|\

      The Cellist is Gerry Barnett :) (One day I'll have a computer with a big memory (but maybe not :) ) and I wont have to settle for compromises when the file size gets to a size that challenges the CPU - sorry the caption issues were distracting for you. Glad you enjoyed the arrangement, the performance and the song itself :)
