colinmce Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 Indeed. A one of a kind musician. Quote
AmirBagachelles Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 a real talent, I love L.A. Turnaround and my friends say there are more gems in his catalog Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 Not unexpected; he'd been ill for some time. Very sad. As a solo artist he was never one of my favourites but his influence within and beyond folk was astounding. RIP Quote
sidewinder Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 (edited) Sad news, RIP. Yes, very influential in Pentangle and other groups. Another very sad passing from over here today - along with the news of Graham Dilley. Edited October 5, 2011 by sidewinder Quote
Stereojack Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 I got to see Bert in solo performances twice in recent years, and it was absolutely spellbinding. A brilliant performer. Quote
BFrank Posted October 6, 2011 Report Posted October 6, 2011 Sad day indeed. Sorry I never saw him perform. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted October 7, 2011 Report Posted October 7, 2011 Oh shit, sorry to hear this. I too missed out on a couple of (pricey) chances to see him. RIP to one of the greats. Quote
mikeweil Posted October 9, 2011 Report Posted October 9, 2011 Very sad news - Ioved his voice, which was a perfect contrast tp Jacqui McShee. The Pentangle was one of my favourite bands, and a playing model, and I collected all of their albums back then ... R.I.P, Bert ... Quote
