NEIL YOUNG said: "As much of a great guitar player as Jimi [Hendrix] was, Bert
Jansch is the same thing for acoustic guitar...and my favorite."

JIMMY PAGE said: “At one point, I was absolutely obsessed with Bert Jansch. When I
first heard that LP [1965], I couldn’t believe it. It was so far ahead of what
everyone else was doing. No one in America could touch that”

JEFFREY said:  hey there HIPPIES, so i had a chance to book my 2nd favorite musician
of all-time in providence and so i did. (yeah, neil young's favorite, my 2nd
favorite)... living legend of fingerstyle folk guitar - recording since 1964 !! and,
shit, founding member of the Pentangle - still the greatest folk rock group EVER.
and HOLY SHIT - BERT JANSCH is playing at AS220. we are filling the whole place with
chairs, so the capacity is very limited and thats why tickets are high - $15 -
sorry, but hell, it's BERT JANSCH. and if you are interested, i would highly suggest
getting tickets NOW since there are already less than 30 left !!
