This recording is a solo project of Dan Fassett

The Green Man is an archetype symbolizing humankinds reemerging awareness of its interdependence and unity with nature. Robin Hood is only one of the many forms in which he is found. He often is seen sculpted from wood and stone in churches and furniture of Europe and is predominately rooted in Western culture. His form is represented as a composite of at man's head and leaves.
