Does anyone on earth(other than myself) remember a kids TV show from early to mid 80's featuring a man sat underneath a tree? I think he used to read a story and I have a vague feeling he was either playing a guitar and singing or playing a flute??
Nobody knows what I am going on about but its probabaly my earliest memory of watching TV... The man used to scare me a little bit, maybe he had long hair too??

I think it was called the Story Teller or something like that by Jim Henson

Possibly Fred Penner's Place (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0402644/)?
