Our Take

Bert Jansch's latest album, "Nicolain," is a delightful journey through the mind of a folk music legend. From the moment the needle hits the vinyl, you are transported to a whimsical world of intricate guitar melodies and haunting vocals.

Jansch's unique fingerpicking style is on full display, showcasing his mastery of the instrument with every note. His voice, weathered by years of musical experience, adds a layer of depth and emotion to each song.

The album's standout track, "The Blacksmith," is a prime example of Jansch's storytelling prowess. The tale of a hardworking tradesman is brought to life through evocative lyrics and soul-stirring music.

But don't be fooled by the album's traditional folk roots – Jansch isn't afraid to experiment. Tracks like "Green Willow" and "Village Kids" show a more experimental side to his music, blending elements of jazz and blues into the mix.

Overall, "Nicolain" is a testament to Bert Jansch's enduring talent and creativity. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to his music, this album is sure to captivate and inspire. So grab your favourite beverage, hit play, and let yourself be swept away by the magic of Bert Jansch.
