I watched a Christie Moore version of this first and this just blows it out of the water. Bert's voice and his passion just hits the spot!

[@niallbyrne7562]

Agreed. Bert was in a league of his own.

[@williamdevine9307]

guitar is better. Christy moore's voice is beautiful

[@artistrunner3327]

The legendary Burt has left us some fantastic music

Took my husband’s ashes from California to Ireland after he died. Put Bert’s version of this song on my iPod and played it at Kildare- no better tribute….thanks for sharing this beautiful version.

I have never seen Bert playing this guitar before.

[@TheGman858]

Tears me up every time

[@MichaelTynan-kr6mt]

Poetic beauty, such a beautiful rendition

[@keithsmith7550]

Never heard this before. Beautiful! He has been a hero of mine since University days in the 60's. Learnt to play a lot of his guitar work then and still find something new thanks to You Tube. RIP Bert.

My hands up straight away why I wouldn't join in.... I'd be like everyone else too hypnotised and mesmerised ... Witnessing sheer perfection leaves one speechless and motionless ... Beautiful .. Thanks for sharing

Christy Moore may be a Kildare man, but Bert made this his own. Simple but beautiful guitar.

[@debs4mysweetbaby]

thank you for sharing these wonderful vids of bert :)

[@mlsjuge477]

I love this man

[@MrMusicguyma]

One of my favorite versions. Bert was a master singer/guitarist with more "hooks" in his guitar accompaniments than a long-line trawler ;)

[@danielalexandermclachlanga3781]

emotional presence of guitar playing & singing ,entwined with spiritual grounding is the scotsman jansch resonating truth of worthy struggle that "dancee doospidedou" is clueless of

[@debs4mysweetbaby]

i think his singing is lovely on this :)

[@kappagld]

how beautiful !

[@Vingul]

If you like this, check the version done by Bert Jansch Conundrum, with drums and mandolin/bass.. amazing stuff.

[@jakemetcalfe3091]

he really nails this tune.

[@DjNikGnashers]

This must be the only clip of him using a cutaway.....

[@viking1au]

Looks like he had to borrow yet another guitar. Not his usual Yamaha.
