A Lark Ascending Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stereojack Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford_thornton Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
