Pre-order Now<\/a><\/p>\n

One of Bert Jansch<\/strong>\u2019s later recordings, \u2018Crimson Moon<\/strong>\u2019 <\/em>is some of his finest work and sees the musician at the top of his game. Earth Recordings revisits the album on its 20th Anniversary with its first ever standalone cut to vinyl.<\/p>\n

Originally released in 2000, there is a brooding resonance in \u2018Crimson Moon\u2019<\/em>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 \u201cGuitar\u201d Hodge along with guest vocals from Bert\u2019s wife Loren Auerbach (\u2018My Donald\u2019).<\/p>\n

The addition of electric guitar subtly compliments Bert\u2019s percussive fingerpicking bringing new depth to his compositions.<\/p>\n

Title track \u2018Crimson Moon\u2019<\/em> is a take on traditional song \u2018Omie Wise\u2019 and was written about his wife Loren, \u2018Caledonia\u2019 conjures pastoral images of Scotland alongside covers of The Incredible String Band\u2019s \u2018October Song\u2019, Guy Mitchell\u2019s \u2018Singing The Blues\u2019 and Owen Hand\u2019s \u2018My Donald\u2019. Otherworldly tale \u2018Neptune\u2019s Daughter\u2019 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.<\/p>\n

Released in his sixties, \u2018Crimson Moon\u2019<\/em> proves Bert Jansch to still be an innovator and a unique talent.<\/p>\n
