 George Graham Reviews Bert Jansch
Bert Jansch is one of the pioneers is what has become a very durable style, and this album is an excellent reminder of why this kind of music has stood the test of time so well.
While Jansch's guitar work gave the Pentangle much of its distinctive sound, he was also the group's most prolific songwriter and played a large role in the selection and arrangements of the traditional material the group recorded.
The Scottish-born Jansch actually released his first album before the Pentangle's 1968 debut.

Bert Jansch’s groundbreaking guitar playing, deep songwriting and dark vocals have entranced audiences for over 40 years.
Legend has it that his first album, played on a borrowed guitar and recorded in an apartment, was sold to Transatlantic for £100.
Causing a sensation on its release in 1965, the album ‘Bert Jansch’ has been phenomenally influential with a host of big names citing it as a major influence.

Bert Jansch was the same thing for the acoustic guitar".
On the covers of Jansch's first albums he was depicted in bare rooms, disheveled and alone with his guitar.
Jansch could not equal the lyrical abilities of songwriting peers like Neil Young; his "Needle of Death" lacks the imagistic power of the song it inspired: "The Needle and the Damage Done".

 STONEYPORT AGENCY - Bert Jansch bio: April 2002
His first album, Bert Jansch — played on a borrowed guitar and recorded on a reel-to-reel tape deck in someone’s apartment — was legendarily sold to the Transatlantic label for £100.
is still very much a Jansch album, on which he excels on both acoustic and electric guitar and his gritty vocals sit perfectly amongst the musical superstructure.
A double CD tribute album, People On The Highway: a Bert Jansch Encomium, was also released in 2000, featuring many of Bert’s songs specially recorded by other artists.

 Bert Jansch And John Renbourn, MP3 Music Download at eMusic
Jansch graduated to a real studio for his second album, It Don't Bother Me. That LP featured some contributions from guitarist John Renbourn, and the pair would record a joint effort in the mid-'60s as well, Bert and John.
One of the most important figures in contemporary British folk, Bert Jansch brought an unsurpassed combination of virtuosity and eclecticism to the acoustic guitar, both as a solo act and a key member of Pentangle.
Jansch's first decade of recording attracts the lion's share of interest from listeners.

 Guardian Unlimited Arts features Guitar man
Frank's 1965 album is now so rare that when it was released on CD earlier this year, Jansch had to lend the record company his own copy for the cover photograph.
Most of Jansch's record collection has been lost, stolen or borrowed over the years, but he has managed to hold on to his favourite album: the 1965 debut by a former hero of the folk underground called Jackson C Frank.
But being a singer-songwriter necessarily means performing live, being in the public eye, and, worst of all, talking to journalists, and Jansch is clearly a very shy man. There is nothing of the salesman about him: only a quiet musician who finds his eloquence in the strings of an acoustic guitar.

 Bert Jansch review
Bert and Loren together sing ‘The quite joys of brotherhood’; Bert explains the song is about what man has done to nature, Loren chips in saying its "a lament for what mankind has done to nature".
Bert sits alone on the stage with just his acoustic guitar - no band to hide behind, any mistake exaggerated.
In his first Melody Maker interview in the sixties Jansch said of his music; "I have no message", but this is certainly not the case.

 The Best of Bert Jansch
But when Jansch included lyrics with his songs they did tend to be rather dark in nature.
Most of his original albums are out on CDs, sometimes in combinations (e.g., his first and third albums, "Bert Jansch" and "Jack Onion"), all of which will persuade you to remember Jansch when you start ticking off the names of the greatest guitar players of your lifetime.
The best known is "Needle of Death," inspired by the death of a friend on heroin, which is ironic given that it is an atypical Jansch song, where the singing and the lyrics overshadow the guitar playing.

 Bert Jansch Bert Jansch: Legend CD
With the exception of Bert’s version of the Jackson C Frank classic ‘Blues Run The Game’ (which comes from the excellent mid-‘90s ‘Live At The 12 Bar’ CD), all the recordings featured on this compilation are drawn from Jansch’s classic recordings spanning the years 1965-71.
Charles Mingus wrote this song as a tribute to the late tenor saxophone legend Lester Young and this twin guitar exploration is a gentle improvisation that stays close to the melodic beauty of the original.
Her endorsement of Bert helped convince Transatlantic Records they should issue Jansch’s début album (for which the label paid the princely sum of £100).

This anthology supplements most of the material from the album "Bert and John" (later released as "Stepping Stones" in the States) with six or seven duets taken from Bert Jansch and Pentangle albums from the same general period, 1966 to 1968.
Jansch and Renbourn were perhaps the most celebrated acoustic guitar duo from this period, and the material still shines: pieces like 'Hole in the Coal,' 'Three Part Thing,' and 'After the Dance' itself have so much drive, yet elegance...
They're billed on the cover as "historic collaborations," and the duet work of Bert Jansch and John Renbourn was exactly that, both on the albums they did together and as part of Pentangle.

 Guardian Bert Jansch
When Bert Jansch was young, he was briefly a 60s icon, an intense bedsit hero staring out of the blue tint of his Transatlantic solo album.
He achieved relative fame (as a soloist, in a duo with John Renbourn and with Pentangle) by bringing a jazzy sensibility to finger-picked guitar music, leaving a profound influence on folk-rock and rock for the years to come.
Jansch played a few more solo numbers before being joined by Bernard Butler on electric guitar.

 StarPolish Current Issues: Intelligent Dialogue From Music Industry Professionals and Artists
Jansch is what they call a "triple threat." In addition to his singing and songwriting, his guitar playing is every bit as strong as Young's "Every note destroyed me" would lead you to believe.
Actually, I was buying a couple of Jansch CDs because I wanted to get a sense of how Jansch had influenced Young -- and I wanted to acquaint myself with the music of an artist I'd heard about for 35 years, but somehow had never heard.
I guess you could call Jansch (who in 1967 co-founded the folk-rock group Pentangle) a folk singer, though there's blues and jazz in his music.

 Living Tradition CD review of Bert Jansch - Toy Balloon
Bert's last album on Cooking Vinyl "When the Circus Comes to Town" was a classic and was always going to take some following.
Balancing these pieces though, is classic pure Jansch, with the title track for one providing the soft imagery which he writes and sings so beautifully - accompanied as ever with his unique guitar work, as perfect and as clear as spring water.
There are only two songs not written by Bert, one of them opening the album.

Jansch: No, it wasn't me. Look, you listen to Led Zeppelin.
Given their dedication to "pure" celtic folk music, I thought they'd be serious as hell, but they turned out to be hard-drinking, polite, funny, erudite and eager to tell interesting stories.
The other songs are generally ones that Bert writes.

 Guardian Unlimited Arts reviews Bert Jansch
Bert Jansch, 1960s guitar hero and one-time member of Pentangle, had turned 60 during the week, and this was the celebration.
After every two or three solo acoustic songs he introduced new guests, who sat on the stools alongside him, almost as if they were jamming in his front room.
He ranged over nearly 40 years of his own recordings, from his 60s compositions such as Strolling Down the Highway to songs by Jackson C Frank and Robin Williamson, with occasional reminders of his folk music roots.

 After The Dance by Bert Jansch CD
Released nearly 25 years after Bert Jansch and John Renbourn's 1966 debut as a duo, BERT AND JOHN, AFTER THE DANCE takes its title from one of that album's best-loved songs.
Performing mostly with Jansch on acoustic guitar and Renbourn on electric, both playing in the traditional finger-picking style, the two spin dizzyingly complex webs of sound, soloing in counterpoint and playing in unison, sounding exactly like two close friends who have been playing together for decades.
Vox (12/92, p.92) - 6 - Good - "..Bert & John showed what two acoustic guitars could accomplish back in 1966...this is a '60s folk fusion relic number..

He will always be a byword for quicksilver wizardry on the acoustic guitar, but a natural entertainer he ain't.

Jimmy Page and Neil Young have acknowledged their debts to Jansch's guitar playing and songwriting, while artists of more recent vintage queueing to register their support include Bernard Butler, Johnny Marr and Noel Gallagher.
