Bert Jansch was a Scottish artist born on November 3, 1943 in Glasgow. He was a talented musician and songwriter who made significant contributions to the folk music genre. Sadly, he passed away on October 5, 2011 in Hampstead, London after battling cancer for a long time.

Throughout his career, Bert Jansch was married twice. His first marriage was to Heather Jansch and they had a son named Kieran Jansch. Later on, he married Loren Jansch and together they had a son named Adam Jansch.

Bert's unique style of playing the guitar and his heartfelt lyrics captivated audiences worldwide. His legacy lives on through his timeless music that continues to inspire generations of musicians.

BMG Rights Management, formerly known as Bertelsmann Music Group, is a global music conglomerate with a rich history in the industry. Originally formed in 1985 as a joint venture between Bertelsmann AG and RCA, BMG has since evolved into a powerhouse of music production and distribution.

In 1986, Bertelsmann acquired full ownership of RCA and Arista Records through the purchase of their joint venture's stock from General Electric. The following year, these labels were merged under the umbrella of Bertelsmann Music Group (BMG), solidifying its position as a major player in the music world.

In 2004, BMG joined forces with Sony Music to create Sony BMG Music Entertainment. However, in 2008, Bertelsmann sold its stake in the company, leading to the formation of BMG Rights Management. Today, BMG continues to thrive as a leading record label and distributor worldwide.

'Jack Orion' is the third album by Bert Jansch, released in 1966. It contains a number of traditional songs, including the epic 'Jack Orion': a ten-minute adaptation of the Child ballad 'Glasgerion' which tells of a court fiddler's attempt to seduce a countess and his servant's treachery in successfully impersonating him. A number of songs are performed with friend and fellow guitarist John Renbourn, who would later join him in the group Pentangle. 'The Waggoner's Lad' has Jansch unusually playing the banjo with Renbourn supplying the guitar part.
