Opening Act

Filed under: General — m759 @ 10:31 am

A Log24 post yesterday morning referred to a Neil Young song.

That song could, it turns out, be regarded as an opening act for a musician who died in London early this  morning—

AP story— … Spokesman Mick Houghton said Wednesday that [Bert] Jansch died early Wednesday morning….

Jansch was a founding member of the British folk group Pentangle and had inspired a generation of rock and folk guitarists with his acoustic mastery….

Houghton says his final solo performances were opening for Canadian rocker Neil Young earlier this year.

In memoriam "Well, I dreamed I saw the knights in armor coming…"

Background… The Pentangle in Sir Gawain  and The Lyke-Wake Dirge performed by Pentangle.
