One for Jo
A piece by Bert payed by Robin Adams for Bert Jansch
“The first time I heard Bert, I was around 19, and immediately reached for my guitar to learn “One for Jo”, “Needle of Death” and “Strolling Down the Highway”, one after the other. I couldn’t get enough. Bert’s ability to tap into timeless streams of tradition, blues and folk, while sounding like nobody but himself still amazes me.”
Robin Adams also recorded BlackWaterSide on the travelling TransAcoustic guitar, of which Clive Carroll says “This is the tops in my book”.
