Moonshine

Limited picture disc vinyl LP pressing in deluxe die-cut sleeve including digital download. With an output as far reaching as Bert Jansch's, its small wonder that the occasional gem would be overlooked. Moonshine - recorded in 1973 - is one such treasure. While the slightly more obvious (and indeed Pentangle-like) albums of `60s Bert are undisputedly wonderful, there is something about the gently brooding style of Moonshine that really resonates. Joined by an all-star cast - Ralph McTell, Mary Hopkin, Tony Visconti - Jansch's eighth solo album is steeped in tradition, often giving way to a more baroque style of folk music.
