The great & generally wonderful guitarist, Bert Jansch, has shuffled off this mortal coil, run down the curtain & gone to join the choir invisible. He's fucking snuffed it. And if you don't know who I'm talking about, go find out, listen to some of his stuff. Like this ...

I've got no idea who this dude is. And I can't watch videos. But it's always sad when someone you really dug kicks the bucket. This isn't a piss take... I still think, from time to time, about how sad it is that Layne Staley bit it, even though it was about 10 years ago. I can't help thinking at random moments when listening to random music what awesome stuff he would be producing today if he was still around. edit: and drug free (or thereabouts).

Bill Angie was really his only claim to fame was it not. He was a good guitarist.

So sad to hear this - I was a great fan of Pentangle in my youth and Bert also inspired me to keep practising my folk guitar, although I never mastered "Angie". RIP Bert x

Very impressed you could play Angie at all, regardless of how long ago.
