Having been travelling for a couple of weeks, I only heard the sad news of Bert Jansch's death yesterday. It was only two months ago that I had the great pleasure of seeing him when the original Pentangle reunited at the Festival Hall. We all knew at the time it was a special night. With hindsight it becomes even more special because of the knowledge that we will never get to see them again.
Rather than me burble on inadequately about how great Bert was, far better for him to show you himself. Here is just a small selection of some of my favourite moments, in roughly chronological order. Rest in peace, Bert.
"I Am Lonely" - Bert Jansch
"When I Get Home" - Pentangle
"Market Song" - Pentangle
"Daybreak" - Bert Jansch
"Ask Your Daddy" - Bert Jansch
"The Banks Of Sicily" - Bert Jansch
