Ltd ART PRINT EDITION, Classic Black vinyl, bonus live tracks on the DL. Bert Jansch was often quoted as saying Im not playing for anyone, just myself and this feels no more apparent than on 1979s Avocet, his beautifully meditative paean to British birds. This isnt to say that Jansch was throwing commercial success to the wind, or was unaware of his audience, more that this album feels like a uniquely personal reflection of him. For fans of Jansch this is often the album that is singled out as his best work. The freedoms of a post-Pentangle career are much in evidence; folk rock and even trad folk give way to an album that is not only without lyrical accompaniment but really quite orchestral, classical even, in its composition. There are surprises in particular in Lapwing (a dirge-like waltz that wouldnt be out of place on a Nils Frahm album) and Bittern (which speaks of Arthur Russells more experimental pieces). Featuring ex-bandmate Danny Thompson, alongside Martin Jenkins (Dando Shaft, amongst others) with sleeve notes by Jansch aficionado Colin Harper (. Limited Art print edition, reissued as part of Bert Jansch 80, celebrating the enduring legacy of Bert Janschs peerless guitar playing and songwriting, comes with 6 high-quality, lithograph art prints (by UK illustrator Hannah Alice) representing each of the birds on the album, held in a heavy board die-cut gatefold sleeve. This unique packaging is fully interactive - the cover image is interchangeable with any of the prints, though each one is perfectly frameable too. This edition also features three bonus tracks as a download, recorded live in Italy in in 1977 (Bittern; Kingfisher; Avocet), as well as Danny Thompsons recollections of the making of Avocet, recorded by

I might’ve reviewed on the wrong website.. BUT i love love love this backpack, im going to be using it for my senior year. I am just so excited to be able to use my dream backpack!! thank u!!
Really dig the design with all the colors. The material is solid yet comfortable for the dog. The plastic buckle seems sturdy. Jubilee would give it two thumbs up if she had thumbs… A high paw instead.
