A remarkable resurgence in the early 21st century - led by no less an authority than Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore - saw Chapman, then in his 60s, embark on an astoundingly prolific run, with the \u003ci\u003ePlaindealer\u003c\/i\u003e album emerging as just one of three records issued in 2005 alone. Displaying his deep knowledge of folk-music history, he delivers a lengthy extemporisation on Woody Guthrie's all-too-relevant Deportees ('They chase us like outlaws, like rustlers, like thieves'), and a dig through his own past turns up the ten-minute 'Anniversary', originally laid down as early as 1968 and here racing back into life, Chapman's careworn voice carrying with it all the wisdom of the decades in between. Finding its creator as honest as ever, \u003ci\u003ePlaindealer\u003c\/i\u003e is an essential part of an ever-rewarding body of work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStreamline Train (for John Pilgrim)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhere Does That Leave Me?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnniversary\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRamon and Durango\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGeorgia Gibson\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDeportees\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMidnight Ride\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVictory and Defeat\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree Sisters\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYouth Is Wasted (on the Young)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBon Ton Roolay\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54420526334337,"sku":"2426300","price":11.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/5056083213702.jpg?v=1750593246","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/2426300","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
