Scottish singer\/songwriter Bert Jansch recorded his first album in producer Bill Leader's London flat with a borrowed guitar, sitting on the edge of the bed and singing into a portable tape recorder.  As author Richie Unterberger writes in the liner notes, \"When Bert Jansch's self-titled debut LP was issued in April 1965, he was already a major figure on the British folk scene. His synthesis of traditional British folk with blues and a bit of jazz was at the vanguard of a new generation of UK folk performers, well-versed in past forms but unafraid to venture into new territory. His virtuosic guitar was complemented by a plaintive rough-hewn voice that didn't just document the on-the-road experience, but lived it.\" Bert Jansch contains all original material, except a shattered cover of Davy Graham's \"Angie\" that Jansch makes all his own. \"Needle of Death,\" one of the first folk songs to address the consequences of heroin use, yields to a restraint uncommon for Jansch, yet beautifully encapsulates the album's tone of heartfelt conviction. Superior Viaduct is honored to present the first-time domestic release of Bert Jansch's debut. For those interested in a unique strand of music that would become a major influence on everyone from Jimmy Page, Nick Drake, Donovan, Neil Young and more - there is no better place to start than here.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrolling Down the Highway\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmokey River\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOh How Your Love Is Strong\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Have No Time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRambling's Gonna Be the Death of Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVeronica\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeedle of Death\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo You Hear Me Now? 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlice's Wonderland 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRunning from Home 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCourting Blues 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCasbah 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDreams of Love 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAngie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"850","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50562844950824,"sku":"85598500621","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/3394744.jpg?v=1763984969","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/jansch-bert-bert-jansch-lp-5598500621","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
