I had just learned over the weekend that one of my favorite artists had passed, Bert Jansch :frown5:

He was probably one of the greatest guitarist ever. He performed exclusively in acoustic. If you liked Led Zeppelin lll, then you might like his stuff and the group he was a part of The Pentangle. Led Zeppelin lll was heavily influenced by that group and his work.

Here is a link to his bio:

My favorite solo records of his are L.A. Turnaround and When the Circus Comes to Town.

For Pentangle is would be Sweet Child or Basket of Light( for a live performance).

I lift my glass.

Ah, Pentangle brings back memories.

Great stuff and a huge loss.
