Essentially, this is a five minute or so tribute to a very special human being and a great performer. Harry Chapin lived a comparatively short life-only 38 years but he packed so much life into those years. As a performer and story teller, he was loved so much by his audiences that, to this day, they know exactly when and where they attended a concert. Audiences would attend every time he was in close proximity because it was virtually a love affair. Harry just gave and gave. He was also known for his work for other people-notably the hungry. He could not cope with the fact that there are hungry people in the world when we have the ability to feed so many here in the US and around the world. Hope you enjoy!
