The thumbnail pic.on the website doesn't show it, but in the paper pic. there was a 5-string banjo in the background (and looked like even more CDs than I have)! Bert Jansch Home Entertainment RtS |
24 Oct 03 - 09:52 AM (#1041016) Subject: RE: Bert Jansch interview From: GUEST I was quite spooked when I picked up the Guardian at lunchtime having driven to work playing my BJ CDs in chronological order (only got through the first one so far but will be listening to It Don't bother Me on the way home.). Incidentally the two "bonus tracks" on the first album CD don't do BJ any favours at all and spoil the ambience of the whole thing - at least they are stuck on at the end so you can listen to the original playing order without interruption.
