Book Reviews of Dazzling Stranger: Bert Jansch and the British Folk and Blues Revival

Book Review: A must for anyone who enjoys the music of Bert Jansch
Summary: 5 Stars

Anyone who was witness to the British folk scene of the 60s and 70s will find this a fascinating book and a very enjoyable read. Anyone younger who loves the guitar as an instrument will be interested to read about the life of the almost mystical singer, songwriter and musician who was such an important influence on many more recent performers like Bernard Butler and Jonny Marr. The book is excellently researched and is clearly a labour of love which should inspire you to go out and listen to some of Bert's wonderful music.
