THE LEGACY

The Album: Fully Qualified Survivor (EMI Harvest, 1970) The Sound: The difficult second album turned into Chapman’s masterwork as he tempered his more jagged inclinations with bruised, melancholic songs of enduring intrigue like Postcards Of Scarborough and Kodak Ghosts. A sprinkling of strings adds haunting beauty, with Mick Ronson, Rick Kemp and drummer Barry Morgan providing steel.
