This
is stunning finger style guitar. Jansch and Renbourn have an incredible
ability to weave a tapestry of sound. It is impossible to tell where one
ends and the other begins - it's just plain magic. There are a couple
of songs - the brilliantly detailed Soho is the jewel of the record.

Bert and John has now been re-released on Wooded Hill HILLCD8 - to make
this relatively short album better value for money they have included some
'bonus' tracks:
- The Wagonner's Lad (Traditional arranged Bert Jansch)
- Lucky Thirteen
- In This Game
- Dissatisfied Blues
- Hole In The Cole - this is a wonderful instrumental, as I said
on the Pentangle Reflection page - but it is totally out of place on Bert
& John.
- Bells
