From The Outside
by Bert Jansch
supported by 20 fans who also own “Is It Real? (from 'Playing the Game')”
It's easy to see why an album like this could get overlooked when the artist responsible for it is a titan like Bert Jansch. Easy to see, but still in excusable. Draw a straight line and you can connect Nick Drake's Pink Moon to Johnny Cash's American Recordings via this album. Jansch's guitar work is always sublime, but on his, his singing really shines. So passionate and so alive. Most artists would give their right arms to make this; Jansch barely released it. Astonishing.

Living In The Shadows Part Two: On The Edge Of A Dream
by Bert Jansch
supported by 19 fans who also own “Is It Real? (from 'Playing the Game')”
As for any of Bert’s album I never regretted the money spent. There is always some gems and the rest is nothing less than very good, to say the least. In this collection, however, there is the best folk song written in the current century. Ok, it’s just my opinion, but Bright Sunny Morning sounds like Delia, Stagger Lee or Frankie & Johnny. Sounds already as an old standard, though written on a modern tragedy.

Live At The 12 Bar

A great recording and performance overall. It's a shame Strolling Down the Highway (the song that introduced be to Bert Jansch) is a bit off the mark on this recording.

The impact Bert had on so many players and musicians in general cannot be underestimated. His singular guitar style and his deadpan tenor delivery were simply the man himself delivering the way he felt like it. He is sorely missed!
