Pete Chaff (born Peter Robert Chaffinch, June 15th, 1925, in Taunton, Somerset) was a British singer-songwriter, author, poet, and occasional car mechanic, who was a major figure in folk music for about six weeks. Much of Chaff's most celebrated work dates from the 1970s, when The Wurzels' version of his signature song (The Farmer's Wife's Got A Four Inch Crack In Her, But She Ain't) Broken topped the charts in 1977. Chaff's early lyrics incorporated Neoplastisism, Logical Positivism, social commentary, and pseudo-sexual psychobabble.
