This one made me tearful. So beautiful. Damn... what I'd give to be able to play like that.

Shit....shit....shit.....damn......this news catches me hard......
One of my absolute favorite guitarists ...... this one guy was such a huge influence on so many who came after.....of course nobody could ever play like him....he was a damn force of nature when he had a guitar in his hands......time to pull out the Bert Jansch CDs and listen........damn........
