I cried. Everytime I see Bert Jansch playing something, or even talking about anything, I cry. I don't know why, this man touches something inside of me, like few others. I will always love him
know what you mean Bert had a unique way of playing & singing which strikes straight to your heart & soul, has the same effect on me as you, will be much loved & missed, ''play in peace''.
Me too....and I doubt this is due to my lost and/or misspent youth. Watched the current Russian Gypsy group Pelegyea and noted its sightly more ""rock" incarnation of Pentangle. I'm no musician so go figure. My point is if the music is good it never quite goes away.
Discovering the music of Bert, John and Pentangle when I was 15, how could I have dreamed that I would one day introduce Pentangle onstage! I had become a public radio producer and host of folk and traditional music and was asked to introduce them in Salt Lake City in the mid-1990s. Before the show, Bert sounded truly surprised and pleased when I told him how many years I'd been playing his music on the radio and how he had influenced my own musical journey. What a wonderful and humble person. Such an extraordinary musician. Such a fine musical collaborator.
i became friends with these guys in '66. Renbourn visited me in Cambridge, Mass. in ’69. One of my very best memories in Life is finding myself in Soho at dawn in an open air market after listening to Bert and Jacqui. They, as lovers, were walking hand in hand after playing all night at Les Cousins with a basket that included fresh flowers. Helped me understand what Love is and can be… mostly through their glorious music. I am a complete Junkie for English and Scottish ballads. The guys are all dead now. I miss them. /g P.S. Peter Michael, make sure that Asa hears them. Love, Grumpy
j'adorais Bert Jansch et John Renbourn quand j'avais 17 ans. Un jour je me suis fait voler les 33 tours que j'avais d' eux ensemble ou séparément et je me suis dit que jamais plus j'écouterai ANJI ou les autres morceaux (c'était en 1980). Et voilà que je les retrouve maintenant avec you tube et des personnes qui les aiment autant que moi. Mêmes émotions ! quelques larmes aussi. Merci à tous.
I have been listening to bert for 45 years and never got bored my fav guitarist of all time never stuck to any musical rules met him twice in dublin may the master RIP
I'd just like to thank who ever holds the various rights to this vid for not getting it removed - it's such a beautiful concert and very dear to all fans and friends of bert. Thanks ! ☼
What an absolute honour and pleasure to see one of the greatest guitar players fo free.A BIG THANKYOU for this upload,.,.,.,.,.,.,Peace and Blessings to whoever appreciates Mr.Bert Jansch
Fantastic... What a superb guitarist and a wonderful human being.... Thanks to those for providing this show for us .... Rest in peace Bert... You deserved a far greater audience in your life.
I've been watching and learning from Bert Jansch and John Renbourn since the 60's when they were with Pentangle . This concert is pure gold ! He's a lighthouse of a guitarist and songwriter .
This music goes directly to my heart. I have carried with me since I was a young girl just beginning to spread my wings. A joy of my life was to hear Bert live as he opened for Neil Young. A few months later he was gone🦇🥀🌹
Bert is the master. It blows my mind to think about how much he drank yet still had the ability to play a guitar like a master. Don't know how you can write a song like Needle of Death yet still fall into a bad habit like alcoholism but it did not conquer him! He overcame and kept playing his tunes which are some of the best tunes ever written. One thing I've noticed about Bert and Jacqui is that at any point in time of their lives they play and sing together they are always tightly in sync. Such a strong connection, they're sound was made for one another. Thanks for the upload!
I recently discovered Bert Jansch through his L.A. Turnaround LP that Michael Nesmith produced in 1974. Just learned that he passed away a couple of years ago. Thank you for the music! RIP!!!
This wonderful man inspired me to start playing guitar in 1969. 20 years later I met him in an Irish pub in London and was really sad that he hadn't gained the name he deserved. RIP Bert.
Who was sad - you or Bert? He inspired many, many people. He wasn't worried about his 'fame', he didn't need to. He walked tall, quite rightly commanded deep respect wherever he went. Bert & Pentangle blew the doors off the plop music, er, I mean pop music scene of the day, made a huge contribution. Remember flower power? Carnaby Street? In the late 60s?? Ford Anglias? LSE sit-ins? Afghan black & Afghan coats? LSD? And I walked down Sunny Goodge Street with the only women I have ever truly loved in my life! Thanks Bert.
the beauty of acoustic music..no matter how old you get, or different you look, the sound is still there. Jacqui and Bert had something that was truly timeless. Perfect blend of voices, the perfect with the flawed. great stuff.

Thank you Bert, Thank you John,,,,they lined up down the streets to see you! Rest and there will be music in the Kingdom.......angels with guitars now.......
I just found out about the existence of this amazing artist five minutes ago, yet many of my heroes and references were his fans. Well, better late than never. I've got a lot of catching up to do.
Definitely...things happen when they're supposed to - if you'd heard it at another time, it may not have taken hold of you the way it did just now...I found him a few years ago and I'm glad I did...as a guitarist, I was amazed I'd never heard his name mentioned at any point... so much good music 🎶
Catch up Gui. There is so much good stuff there. I had the good fortune of seeing Bert at the first gig he played in London. Started to follow him and we became friends. He has been my musical inspiration for many years. RIP Bert.
I always gravitate towards this concert Laphroaig and Gibson in hand or not.. It has a spiritualism that escapes me religiously, regretfully.. Came to you via The Smiths and Nick Drake but every river has a tributary. You are very special to me and many others X
The BBC doing what they do best , capturing a piece of musical history . Sadly Bert is no longer with us and at this time of year I would be going to my annual Bert gig at the Edinburgh festival , alas no more , Thanks for posting this video .
James Faulder Yeha - where would we be if not for the BBC ? So much would have been lost - so many beautiful moments uncaptured. We are indeed lucky :)
Took me over 40 years but I found my favourite guitarist. Never knew anything about the folk revival or indeed folk at all until recently. Glad I do now.
I fist became aware of Bert from an interview Jimmy Page did in Trouser Press back in 1976. He'd mentioned that Bert lost his ability to play from arthritis in his hands. Wondering what it was that helped him to overcome this obstacle so well. His abilities seemed effortless on this recording. You'd never know that he's ever missed a beat. What an incredible talent ! Thanks for posting.
I CALL THE CONCERT YELLOW MOON SO SORRY IT IS CRIMSON MOON. THIS CONCERT FOOTAGE WOULD BO VERY GRATEFULL IF THIS WAS RELEASED ONTO A DVD. THIS IS ONE OF OUR TRUEST BEST FINGER PICKING GUITARESTS THAT THIS COUNTRY HAS EVER SEEN AND HEARD. THIS IS ABSOLUTLY SHEER BEAUTY PLAYED WITH HEARTFELT LOVE TOYOU BERT R. I. P. .YOU WILL PLAY ON IN HEAVEN FOR EVER MORE BERT WE CAN STILL HEAR YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER. BLESS YOUR OWN SWEETEST HEART WITH MUCH AFFECTIONATE LOVE FOR THIS BEAUTIFULL FOOTAGE..XXX BIG TIME.
Bert took 'Anji' from Davey Graham and found he just coulnd't stop playing it - it is such a fine, addictive tune for any guitarist. Then came Paul Simon, who learned the song from Bert Jansch, found he just couldn't stop playing it while residing in England and playing his guitar as a one-man band; Simon put it on one of the S&G albums. Along came Harry Sacksioni, the Dutch guitar virtuoso, and a big S&G fan, not in the least because PS is a fine guitarist. Harry picked up the tune, added a number of embellishments, and turned it into a happy showpiece on a - mind you - nylon string guitar. I bought Harry's album in 1976, then Paul Simon's album in 1980, then Bert Jansch' album in 1985, and last of all Davey Graham's album only recently. I really love all the versions and most performances of Angie (as Graham called it) or Anji (as it was called since Bert made it his own) and guess what? I found that I just can't stop playing it. It has been on my list of favourites for 35 years, and still I didn't get enough of it. Take that capo, 2nd fret (for me, that is) and my fingers just find those chords, those picks, that playfulness. I think it is a guitarist's favourite more than a listener's favourite, but what the heck. So thank you for keeping that flame, and passing it on to many of us, Bert!
I can definitely hear how Nick Drake would have been influenced by Bert. Bert breaks rules, but they were rules which he meant to break and his music is all the richer for it. This music reminds me of the way a stream flows and eddies round the contours of the bank that guide it. Spiraling pools of liquid composition, forming, breaking and reforming as the body of the music flows. Thanks Bert. RIP
Two Great Talents singing together, Bert and Ralph. Doesn't get any more special than this. Thanks so much for posting this video. Wonderful t hear "Moonshine". Quite possibly my favorite song of all time.
This is great, Bert was a true artist and great guitar player, what struck me was Johnny Marr and Bernard Butler played very eloquently on the songs they played and proved themselves as pretty good musicians too.
Johnny and Bernard are two of the most skilful, original and sensitive guitarists to come post punk so it's no surprise they respect and do justice to a master like Bert. You wouldn't find Noel Gallagher holding his own like that!
A great artist, passionated and sincere and a master of the intricate finger picking. What touch me the most is his voice which gives me each time goose bumps and chills
Bert J and John Renbourn in the same group was amazing.Jack Orion inspired me to stop shredding my Fender,and start playing acoustic guitar.I still own both but the acoustic has a lot more miles on it
Last time I saw Bert he was sprawled on the floor in the toilets of the Red Lion pub; he still played before and after though. All acoustic in those days of course - no mikes, no stage, packed out and you could hear a pin drop. How I wish/hope those settings and atmospheres could/will return. We do sometimes get them here in Ireland.
@@jamesdonalfaulkner funnily enough, I bumped into in a small club in demark street. when i was in the loo, just a few mins later he was on the stage, when i say stage it was less than a 12 inches tall
It's the only guitar I hear sound divine when equipped with a pizzo pickup and internal pickup. It's the first time that I haven't been disgusted by the sound of one of these electro-acoustic guitars. It is fabulous !
I first heard Bert Jansch on the Vanguard Lucky 13 compilation. This was in the mid-1960's and I wore it out. "Anji" & "Lucky 13" are two of my favorites from that album.
I first came across Bert through Pentangle's Basket of Light album (which I still have on vinyl). I bought several albums featuring acoustic guitarists, but the one track always stuck in my mind was "Needle of Death" played by Bert.

I swear, back in the early 1980's, that Yamaha had 12 strings!
But then, if you have 20 fingers, I guess it's not a big deal?
Some people take flight some people never leave. Bert is always with me
I recently discovered Bert Jansch through his L.A. Turnaround LP that Michael Nesmith produced in 1974. Just learned that he passed away a couple of years ago. Thank you for the music! RIP!!!
The generosity of spirit in Bert's music is so contagious if you have the ears to hear it.
I was 16 when I bought the Pentangle LP in London. It's always been with me !
Older music is far better than the stuff you here today love all their music
Running from home making dreams of my own

It's a very hard song to stop playing once you start. The rhythm is addictive when you get inside it. Capo 3 for me
Love your summary/commentary! And I love playing it, no matter the spelling ;-)
yeah except Graham called it Angi/Anji, Jansch called it Angie.
Thank you Bert 🙌🌈
His music makes me feel stuff. So good.

excelente guitarrista y gran cantante ¡que bien suena en directo! ¡ pena que nos haya dejado!
Jacquie's singing is just effortlessly cool
We saw Jacquui and Renbourn in a small club in Chicago- superb.
Wonderful. Thank you for posting this.
absolutey lovely, great to see this vid of Bert, one of my old time hero's. Thx for sharing this! Ernst
The master at work.
Fantastic
my life is complete
Would be Anne Briggs had been there...Wonderful show, the best to Bert Jansch, RIP.
I first heard Bert Jansch on the Vanguard Lucky 13 compilation. This was in the mid-1960's and I wore it out.
"Anji" & "Lucky 13" are two of my favorites from that album.

The FATHER, SON & HOLY GHOST of guitar right there, in "The River Bank"
thanks for this from a long time fan of Bert! :)
I first came across Bert through Pentangle's Basket of Light album (which I still have on vinyl). I bought several albums featuring acoustic guitarists, but the one track always stuck in my mind was "Needle of Death" played by Bert.
That song still makes me cry again and again! The saddest song I have ever heard!
I can confirm that is sounds great.
"Ever yes,ever no" sung by Bert alone at that "other" birthday concert back in 91/92 is my favourite...with Bert it´s all about freedom
Many thanks for posting & sharing this gem!
I like the two Jackson C Frank songs he played :) Carnival is a great song.
Carnival is a classic.

Actually all the song titles come up on screen as the vid plays, but I have added the full tracklist above in the description for convenience :)
LOL, it's his 60th Birthday Concert and he does most of the playing and singing. Great to hear him.
