Free Music Review: How can I possibly give this cd such a bad review?
Hit: 2 Stars
I purchased this cd after only hearing the brilliantly arranged/performed "Katie Cruel" on Pandora.com. Absolutely fascinating! The reviews of this cd here on Amazon were so positive. And from what I understand, Bert Jansch is very influential in the folk scene. The cd art work is very nice, the guitar playing here is drop-dead beautiful, the tunes are all good, but why does he have to sing lead on most of his songs??? One kinder reviewer here related Bert's voice to a sinus infection. I believe it is worse. He regularly drifts into degrees of flatness, has awful phrasing, and frequent unintelligible mumblings that are simply not musical. Sort of reminds me of another great, John Renbourn, only not even that good.
I will not continue to listen to this cd, despite the great guitar. too bad for me. I truly hope I can find some of Bert's music that is performed without his singing. If I do I will probably purchase it.
