His gone, meditative 1965 debut, already steeped in Eastern modalities and Indian mysticism. The opener is based on a Ravi Shankar raga; Bardo Blues is a musical rendition of the Tibetan Book Of The Dead.

His second LP, from 1965. Mostly his own songs — including Anti Apartheid — with Roy Harper singing on A Man I’d Rather Be, and John Renbourn duetting on Lucky Thirteen. Bert swaps his steel-string for a banjo, to close with 900 Miles (the same year Terry Callier made it his own, for Prestige).

Originally released on Stefan Grossman’s Kicking Mule label in 1979, after the break-up of Pentangle. With Martin Jenkins, Nigel Portman-Smith, Luce Langridge — and Jacquie McShee on one track.

Still breathtaking.
