Riff from The Black Swan/untitled Instrumental
“To get to know one of Bert’s favourite guitars, I have combined the riff from his song ‘The Black Swan’ with an as-yet-untitled piece of my own, inspired by the music of the man himself! (Any title suggestions greatly appreciated!) If ever I am at a loss for what to work on, I need only listen to some Jansch and I am away!”
“Bert Jansch is a huge HERO of mine! I was brought up listening to him. Jansch was the real deal – he was ahead of the game decades ago, and still is. He is a constant source of inspiration so being a part of this project means a huge deal to me.”
