Saturday's Child: Don't Take The Big Trees by Bob Loomis


I wrote this song in 1997 after listening on KPFA-FM Radio to the hearings in Oakland about redwood logging in the Scotia CA area by a corporation that had purchased the longtime sustainable Louisiana Pacific business and intended to clearcut the area. It's one of my few protest songs. That battle was won, sort of, but there are still attempts being made to take the old trees. I hope you like the song. Copyright Robert Loomis, all rights reserved.
