Damn.

Bert Jansch died yesterday.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2011/oct/05/bert-jansch

One of the most important guitarists of his generation, and perhaps of all time. His solo work, partnership with John Renbourn, and work with the folk group Pentangle, are peerless within the folk genre, and indeed transcended the genre.





RIP Bert.

Those songs, especially the first one, I really like. I'm going to get some more of his stuff now. (Using the magic of torrents.)
