pity Neil wasn't sincere enough to learn the words and the tune.

one of the great guitar moves that Jansch showed us all was the A minor in the G. Just as Tom Paxton showed us all the C inside the G.

Granted other guitarists had used it as an embellishment (Rambling Jack Elliot in Candyman - we're talking people who visited the English folk scene.)

But Bert used this move to such great effect with the melodies of Needle and Running from home.

Reinforces my long held opinion that BBC relies on people who know sod all about our music. They've done fair job of killing off the folk music revival.
