BERT JANSCH – crimson moon (CD, LP Vinyl)
Zum 20ten Albumjubiläum eine Vinyl-Reissue einer seiner späteren Album-Aufnahmen (original 2000 erschienen), die Jansch in seinen 60ern aufnahm. und ihn immer noch als Innovator und einzigartiges Talent zeigt. Einige seiner besten Arbeiten finden sich hier, die den Musiker at the top of his game zeigt. Mit Auftritten von Johnny Marr, Bernard Butler und einigen anderen. There is a brooding resonance in 'Crimson Moon' centred around his accomplished guitar style that brings his contemplative songwriting to the fore. Traditional ballads have touches of jazz and blues adorned by contributions from guitarists Johnny Marr, Bernard Butler and Johnny "Guitar" Hodge along with guest vocals from Bert's wife Loren Auerbach ('My Donald'). The addition of electric guitar subtly compliments Bert's percussive fingerpicking bringing new depth to his compositions. Title track 'Crimson Moon' is a take on traditional song 'Omie Wise' and was written about his wife Loren, 'Caledonia' conjures pastoral images of Scotland alongside covers of The Incredible String Band's 'October Song', Guy Mitchell's 'Singing The Blues' and Owen Hand's 'My Donald'. Otherworldly tale 'Neptune's Daughter' sees a mermaid-like creature recount the death of her relatives from a poison in the sea. Passionate about nature, the song carries an underlying ecological message. "Stunning" - NPR // "Irrevocably Bert" - Mojo // "Genius" - Metro *Earth/Fire
