One of His Best, a Must-Have,
By Frank Loudbear (Carlow, Ireland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: It Don't Bother Me (Audio CD)
As Bert's 2nd album, this is one of his purest and simplest recordings. His style is still based solely around the guitar and his voice and his voice is still pure and clean. After listening to this album, you will feel like you're getting to know Bert; he tells how his father left when he was young in Want my Daddy Now, the notes on the back are written as if you know Bert and his friends already and he even laughs in the track A Man I'd Rather Be. The album includes some brilliant instrumental tracks like the dreamy Tinker's Blues (written for his flatmate's cat) and Lucky Thirteen (with John Renbourne). If you want to get a good introduction to Bert Jansch I would reccomend getting this and his first album, for a comrehensive introduction and taste of his music.

First two albums,
By D. J. H. Thorn "davethorn13" (Hull, UK) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Bert Jansch / It Don't Bother Me [Two Album Set] (Audio CD)
These are the first Bert Jansch albums I've heard, consisting almost entirely of the singer accompanied only by his own guitar. Although he's tagged as 'folk', this mainly self-penned material consists simply of personal experience (mostly love) and observation. Tinged here and there by blues and jazz influences, it's a short step from here to the 'singer-songwriter' tag. The first album contains six short instrumentals among its fifteen tracks, including a worthy version of Davy Graham's classic, 'Angie', and emphasises his excellence on guitar. His voice is soft, deep and melancholy almost throughout, whereas on the second album there are moments of insouciance and there are signs of a broadening vocal approach. Of the two duets with John Renbourn, 'Lucky Thirteen' provides a highlight, while of the songs, only 'Anti-Apartheid' sounds awkward. This is a collection of sometimes compelling, always honest performances by a then (1965) budding talent.

BIASED FAN,
This review is from: It Don't Bother Me (Audio CD)
I have been listening to Bert since he began and it is great to have stuff on CD that I used to have on LP He is special He was born a few days from Joni Mitchell and altho they are very different they are both very special original musos He is a gentle man I prefer the early work as in this CD here as the later work shows what years of fags does to your voice But any Bert is good Bert
