Bert Jansch – Birthday Blues

  • Bert Jansch

    Birthday Blues LP (1969)

    Transatlantic Records

Sixth album by the influential Scottish folk guitar legend Bert Jansch.  By 1969, along with his group Pentangle, Jansch began to stretch out.  This is album is most notable in crate digging circles for the cut "Poison", a droning drop D bluesy folk rock tune anchored by the heavy drum work of Terry Cox.  Also check for "A Woman Like You" which has a similar feel.
