This was a really lovely mix, and a fitting tribute to our arboreal friends! One other tree song I love popped into mind – “Sycamore” by Bill Callahan. It’s more of an indie pop sound, but a wonderful song. Seems like there may be two versions floating around – one more stripped down than the other.
Sorry to just find that I never replied to this! I’m glad you enjoyed and thanks for listening. I always like Callahan when I hear him but hadn’t heard that song. I just gave it a listen and really enjoyed it. For kinds of trees evoked you can’t beat “I Love the Trees,” a beautiful little tune by the Irish group Nomos that begins that other tree set I put a link to.
@pfktoledo Cool. I'll check out that set too!

🥹😁😎🧶🦉🦥🌲🪺🌤️🙏🏼
From wyrd woodland folk to balmy, palmy roots, you've covered all branches of the theme here. 👌
( Also...saw what you did there with the grouping of the final three nationalities. Amen to that ✊and all power to the other America.)
I’m glad you liked this, John. Thanks for the Amen and thanks for listening!
Sorry, I've been beaten to the pun:) Really enjoyed these sonic treets, Patrick - cheers!
Glad you enjoyed this, Simon, and thanks for listening!
Tree-mendous (sorry), thanks for sharing Patrick
All puns appreciated, and thanks for listening! I’m glad you liked it.
Beautiful tree songs dear Patrick 🌴🌳🌾 love Rum Ragged's 'The Apple Tree' 🍎
Glad you liked them, Zvonimir, and thanks for listening! I like that one too but it can get stuck in your head.
