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.

There is something quite special about a live album—provided you can get over the envy at not having been present(!) It can sound a lot better than the gig itself without the risk of one's toes being trodden or a shower of a fellow reveler's beer. Certainly a BERT JANSCH gig was a treat however you experienced it, especially when he was at the top of his game, as captured on Live In Australia. Eschewing the familiar stalwarts of previous live sets, this memorable recording saw Jansch debut two new (at the time) songs; 'Downunder' and 'My Donald,' as well as 'Little Max,' which never had a studio outing (but will feature among the recently discovered home recordings in Earth's 2017 Living In The Shadows collection). There is a warmth about this recording which echoes that of Live at The 12 Bar, recorded three years before. It's mostly just Bert and his guitar, with the a welcome addition of intuitively placed flourishes of bass and percussion. This ambience is heightened by BRIAN PYLE's sensitive remastering, bringing a real intimacy to this enduring collection of songs.
