It may have been out of place in 1982, but this reissue of Heartbreak proves that, whether he fit or not, Jansch was still making great music in the '80s. Bert Jansch is one of the definitive folk guitarists of the 20th century, making a name for himself both as a solo artist and, with John Renbourn, as a part of Pentangle. But Heartbreak, his 1982 solo album, is a curiously overlooked record now reissued by Omnivore Recordings. Hearing it now, it feels more in line with bands playing now -- Fleet Foxes, say -- than much [...]

Here's a repost of my Christmas mix from 2009. One of these years I'd like to create a new mix for the season rather than reposting this one over and over. Until then, this one still seems to get the job done. "Miriam" (מרים) is Hebrew for "Mary."

Bert Jansch - It Don’t Bother Me
As a solo artist and as one fifth of The Pentangle, Bert Jansch's six-string stylings captivated guitarists as disparate as Jimmy Page, Neil Young and Johnny Marr. His sound is instantly recognizable, as distinctive as a fingerprint: the circular picking patterns, melodies and rhythms incorporating everything from medieval madrigals to Mingus, that assertive snap of [...]
You got to take the opportunities when they are available, otherwise, you'll regret it. It's a simple concept I sometimes forget. Couple of years ago I decided to purchase all of Bert Jansch's records on vinyls. I managed to get my hands ... Continue reading
Omnivore Recordings will release a newly remastered 30th Anniversary limited edition LP and two-CD set of the long lost, out-of-print, landmark 1981 album Heartbreak , by seminal Scottish folk guitarist, singer, and composer Bert Jansch on November 6.

Recently the Demagogues were asked to contribute a featured playlist for the incredible “mood based” internet based music streaming service Stereomood. Straight outta Rome the closest analogue to the service in American minds may be Pandora, but instead of using an artist as the seedbed for playlist formation Stereomood asks us to use a word [...]

Televizyonun diktatör dediğine diktatör, terörist dediğine terörist, hain dediğine hain, şehit dediğine şehit, şerefsiz dediğine şerefsiz, kahraman dediğine kahraman diyen uydu alıcıları sizi.. Spikerin dudak uçlarında yaşayan; okumaktan, sorgulamaktan, araştırmaktan nefret eden üniversite mezunları sizi.. Hiç okumayın, sorgulamayın, araştırmayın, incelemeyin.. Sadece kumandanin tuşuna basıp ezberleyin.. Televizyonda yemek yiyenlerin görüntüleriyle beslenip, öpüşenlerin sevdasıyla tatmin olup, askere gidenlerin kanlı elbisesiyle cesur olun.. Dünyanın öbür ucunda hiç tanımadığınız birini alçak ilan edin, yine dünyanın öbür ucunda hiç tanımadığınız birini kahraman. Yalnız dua edin elektrikler gitmesin ! "Emrah Serbes" [...]

I'm of an age where Tim Hardin 's Reason To Believe is heard first and foremost in the voice of a late-career Rod Stewart - an inauspicious echo for a song so powerful, and so well-covered. But a good coverwatcher learns to spot trends among the liner notes as he gathers in the sheaves. And so, with today's culminating feature, we come to honor a gradual and growing awareness of the work of the sixties and seventies singer-songwriter among a generation of artists and fans born after his rise and fall from grace [...]

When you're cited as a prime inspiration by both Jimmy Page and Johnny Marr, absolutely entitled to kick back and look proudly upon the kingdom of your influence. Bert Jansch did it up right pretty much his entire career. Here's a great that's on my mind as I prepare to head out of the hectic city to the swamplands of Louisiana for the weekend. A long weekend. So see you back on Wednesday. Bert Jansch - Blackwater Side

In the 1969 revision of the Roman Catholic Calendar of Saints, the feast day of Saint Valentine on February 14 was removed from the General Roman Calendar and relegated to particular (local or even national) calendars for the following reason: "Though the memorial of Saint Valentine is ancient, it is left to particular calendars, since, apart from his name, nothing is known of Saint Valentine except that he was buried on the Via Flaminia on February 14." The feast day is still celebrated in Balzan (Malta) where relics of the saint are claimed to be found, and also throughout the [...]

Yet another lovingly-crafted and mysterious curiosity from the Second Language label.

Yes, it's taken us a while to come up with this. We're slow that way, you know? To start this 2011 recap off on a slightly moribund note, the death of Scottish folk singer Bert Jansch (1943-2011) in October rather cast a pall over the past year. Jansch has long been a part of my everyday experiences of listening to music, and the influence of his unhurried acoustic guitar playing can be heard in several other musicians I admire as well (Neil Young and Nick Drake come [...]

Pentangle : Sweet Child [ purchase ] Bert Jansch : Angie [ purchase ] Most of the time, Bert Jansch is described as a British folk musician. Fair enough, since many of the songs he performed were from the British folk cannon. But Jansch’s first inspiration was the American blues musician Big Bill Broonzy. Broonzy started out playing for dancers in juke joints, so he had to lay down a solid beat. But, on top of that beat, [...]

Since we’re all a tight-knit music-lovin’ community, we created this segment so that some of our good friends who are doing good things in the industry of human happiness could share the records that they’ve been diggin’ on lately. Our second edition of Grooves Shared comes from Dog Gone Blog’s Sam Davis, whose blog explores music of all colors. He's definitely turned me on to some amazing stuff over the past year or so. DGB will also host a Post-Phish extravaganza on Friday, December 30th [...]

Two decades from now, how do you think 2011 will be remembered? As the year we lost Amy Winehouse? How about the year three of music's most iconic outfits - The White Stripes, R.E.M., and LCD Soundsystem - all decided to call it quits? Maybe Lana Del Rey will prove a sustainable force and then we can all tell our children about the great collagen debate of 2011. Or try to explain to them how two rock and roll hall of famers came together to create the worst piece of music imaginable. Yeah, 2011 was a fucking weird year. [...]

The Grim Reaper feasted on a rich harvest in October, though he thankfully et off a bit towards the end. The headline death this month probably is that of folk-music legend Bert Jansch , who influenced so many musicians – and not only folkies. Among those who cited Jansch as influences are Jimmy Page, Elton John, Nick Drake, Johnny Marr, Mazzy Starr's Hope Sandoval, Neil Young, Donovan, Blur's Graham Coxon, Suede's Bernard Butler, Al Stewart, The Fleet Foxes and Paul Simon. Clarence Johnson , who has died at 69, might have become a [...]
