Every time I pick up my guitar I play this song in Bert's style. I've added a little repeating bridge again in his style. I owe him everything in my picking style.....
Scattered aroung YT you can find a bunch of Al's instrumentals for solo guitar - Small Fruit Song probably the best known. But, Denise at 16 and Ivitch are well worth a listen, too, It shoud be noted that Al thought Bert was an inderappreciated master of playing. . . .
Super. I remember Les Cousins, but a snip it of Bungies would make the video perfect. They all played there including of course Jackson C Franke. I had the pleasure of seeing and listening. Quite something.
so precious... even to see the Les Cousins billboard advertising Jackson C. Frank's performance.. I am aware of only 20 seconds of video showing Jackson C. Frank performing.. well 20 seconds more than exists of Nick Drake who performed Jackson C. Frank songs... still remains a mystery that both Sandy Denny and Nick Drake performed Jackson C. Frank songs and must have met as Drake once opened for Fairport Convention along with John and Bevery Martyn but I have never read about Drake or Denny commenting on the other's music.
Truth
Wonderful, two great artists paying homage to another great artist.

Nice to hear, and confirmation if it was ever needed that Bert lives on with so many players. Keep going!
IT WAS ENDLESS HIS APPROACH!
Like many, many of us
Beautiful cover. RIP Jackson Frank and Bert Jansch.
This is wonderful.
How lucky we were to have discovered Bert and Al and so many more. Glad I am not young and living in their world.
Very beautiful song, two amazing guitarist
Magic!
Al is a better guitarist than he's given credit for.
How could he not be?! He was taught by Robert Fripp! Seriously, no one even thinks of him as a guitarist at all. Grossly unfair.

Those of us who saw him in places like Les Cousins back in the day know just how good he is.

If there's a better version of this song, I've yet to hear it
You won't.
This song is by Jackson C. Frank who had lived a very hard and sad life
Blimey Al Stewart's no slouch neither
