Johnny always comes across as such a down to earth and gracious guy.
Yep - the very opposite of Morrissey - the cruise ship crooner.
He is I met him and he was the nicest
Yes. Confident but not showing off
@@peterread6967 And modern day fascist!
Johnny Marrs evident huge respect for Bert Jansch is very moving and Johnny pays tribute to one of the great formative influences
I would love to hear a Johnny Marr acoustic/ folk album .
I was just going to say the same. Maybe he will
I know!! I was gonna say the same. Fortunately it's still a possibility, unlike a lot of other guitar greats
Listen to Johnny play live with folk great Bert Jansch in 2003 ruclips.net/video/psPjagYvwgA/видео.html He played on Bert's album Crimson Moon.

@@themodernday5699 Found this video today and I was just going to search for something when both of them played together. Thanks for the upload and the directions. Cheers
Fantastic to see an absolute legendary guitarist pay a heartfelt tribute to one of his guitar heroes! The way that Johnny picked up that Yamaha and played a Bert tune tells us that his recollection of the great Bert Jansch was from his heart. Johnny Marr is an exceptional guitarist, one of the finest!
I now have a lot more respect for Marr, he played the Bert pieces so well.
Should have had tremendous respect from day one.
Phenomenal guitar player.
The sound of the Yamaha LL series guitars is instantly recognisable from Bert's playing. What a lovely interview and a nice tribute to a great artist. Stroll on Bert.
_hands Marr a guitar_
_miracles occur_
Demonstrating that great music is great music no matter if it's 60's folk or 80's alternative. Thanks for posting.
I love Kershaw's wide grin when Johnny played "Unhappy Birthday"...
Aww Andy Kershaw is all grown up now. I remember him on Whistle Test all those years ago. So happy Johnny keeps the candle burning for wonderful Bert.
Thanks for giving credit where credit is due Johnny.
That was great viewing. Love the technique shown by Johnny. FYI, Bert Jansch lived in Kentish Town. This is well before the trendies moved in....and he's now buried with his lady in Highgate Cemetery, near the entrance in Swain's Lane. It's novel and eye-catching grave as well.
Bert Jansch and Johnny Marr Brilliant, two guitar giants.
Remembering with huge affection when they paired up on LATER , and played Riverbank from Berts Crimson Moon , pure acoustic alchemy resulted .B J was the ultimate guitar hero .
Thanks for this.
Gotta keep Bert's music alive
Crimson Moon ( Jansch, Marr,& Butler, what an album !
One great guitar genius pays tribute to another great guitar genius. Perfect and heartwarming.
Great playing! I understand that Bert's good friend and close collaborator John Renbourn wrote "Lady Nothynge's Toye Puffe".
well spotted but even though John played it [on another monday] he credits someone else with the composition - anyway I was impressed and touched by this video; thanks to all concerned
Bert took it all over. His style explored the percussion of harp and lute , a very physical player and a lovely person. I did the sound for a few of his gigs ,him and John Rembourn ,amazing how less is more. Johnny Marr is another.... fantastic creative....talent recongises genius. Never liked the interviewer, his overstressing of his accent is awfull. I'm from Bury
Love Johnny Marr... good to see him play a Yamaha! lol
Nothing wrong with Yamaha guitars but at the end of the day it's the hands the guitar is in that matters no matter where it's made. Bert and Johnny both melodic players and well known for it. Go spend 3K on a guitar and see if it makes you sound better. Trust me it won't.
Jansch's last guitar before his passing was a Yamaha LL11 :D
@@renjay3743 I would take a Guild any day. BTW my 2nd guitar was a Yamaha. My 1st was a 10 $ deal out of the local drug store .
The fingers playing the guitar are most of it , but if you are playing a guitar that is ' dead ' , has shitty acoustics , uneven frets , or is warped , it's gonna be damn hard to make it sound good , no matter how talented you are .
@@quetzalliband Indeed he did. It took me a long time to find mine after discovering Bert, after a Johnny Marr interview.
Johnny, do some more acoustic stuff....we love it
Two of my favourite guitar players 🔈
3:12 you see the capo
3:13 now you don't
Love Johnny would love to hear an acoustic album from him.
Love it, love it, love it.
This is lovely
the river bank is such a beautiful song
I was lucky enough to see Pentangle in 1980. I am not aware there is any band like them today, it would be great if Johnny Marr was to form one. OK he needs to find 4 other great musicians to join him.
Bert Jansch = Guitar God
Holy Shit! 1:29 When he picks up the guitar it sounds just like Bert! WTF!!
amazingly awesome and then some
So charming at the end there
It's interesting that his thumb pick is worn above the joint, I've never seen that before... Johnny's doing it, now I have to give it a go.
Not quite above the joint, just below it and well above the nail like Bert Jansch wore it...helps to get a stronger base and it’s more comfortable in my opinion!
Johnny marr, what a guy
I love it
"He was cool, and he made being cool mean something." That's the coolest thing I've ever heard.
Cool.
At 1:53 I like at the way he says “Okay” centers himself than continues to play immaculately.
Although a great guitar piece, Lady Nothinge's Toye Puffe was not written by Bert Janch. It was written by his fellow band member John Renbourn (both members of Pentangle). Kind of disappointing to see this misleading comment given that Bert did so many amazing pieces of his own.
I can't remove the capo that fast 3:12. Genius.
LOL and tune down to double drop D too, unreal hand speed.
3:11 the editing from capo to no capo lol
plasticbudgie he's just THAT good
Johnny Marr is a great guitarist, his interpretations are better than the originals.
I tried a lot of acoustics but the Yamaha's seem to have the best sound in the shop.
Yamaha's are solid and well made.
The bottom is very solid wood which seems to reflect the sound well.
Bert played a Yamaha LL11. It took me a long time to find one as it was discontinued in 1998.
I will NEVER part with it.
hahahaha ‘influenced’ jimmy page is an understatement
I sometimes find it almost disturbingly beautiful and frustrating . Aside from the wonderful voice and compositional skills often deriving from almost ancient timeless forms..His guitar was magical...he followed his own rules like the greats always do....and while being most sophisticated it's the things that seem at first deceptively easy to mime, when I realize the unique genius of Betts gift.
Anyway thanks for this vid...is that actually Betts guitar....it surely sound a lot like it..or maybe it's your accurate knowledge...anyhow...sound fine..thanks again. D
start playing the riff with capo and ends without, magic
Damn,does Johnny ever age?
I'm really surprised there are no Toni Montana comments here
Konstantinos Vogiannou LOL.
Lady Nothing…is a John Renbourne composition
xx
ok to have tribute to Bert but both examples with Pentangle Train song and Lady Nothing are John Renbourn arr and composition
I have known and loved Bert's music for most of my adult life. When I first heard "Black mountain side" and realised that Page did not credit Bert Jansch, I was horrified.
He didn't have to. He didn't play it note for note and played it in a different tuning. Blues and rock musicians have stolen ideas and licks from each other forever. Page just played a guitar arrangement he never sang the song and it's not Bert's song it's a traditional song so anyone can play it.
@@garysellars8914 "Blues and rock musicians have stolen ideas and licks from each other forever" but I would add, nobody has stolen more ideas and licks, and given less credit than Jimmy Page
@@garysellars8914 It tells a great deal more about your character than it should.
Page is also a nonce. Try and defend that.
@@JohnMcPhersonStrutt Spot on. Page gives magpies a bad name. Ask Anne Bredon's family - or the entire generation of guitar players who were around in the 1960s music scene in London...
Johnny Marr: "oh no way, Bert's guitar...what a TOTAL surprise. I was entirely unprepared for this, I really wasn't expecting to play at all..." as he goes right into a song with no thought, playing with a finger-pick that he just HAPPENED to be wearing...
Yes, it’s called television.
Look at that Yamaha L Series Guitar.
now we know that the johnny marr sound didn't come out of 'nowhere'.
what’s the song at the beginning?
Johnny playing another of his hero's guitars : ruclips.net/video/Yt0XlQ1uMDA/видео.htmlsi=JgxHJb_H_rbfrm8W
Sorry Johnny boy, Lady Nothing is Bert covering a John rendourn number. ✌️ (big Jansch fan)
what is the song at 0:00
anyone know what's the name of the song johnny is playing on 3:30?
it's been a year since you commented this, but it's called angie
Various spellings exist. Angi, Anji and Angie. Originally written by Davy Graham
@@EnemyNumbers thank you!!
@@elisabethparker8735 thank you!
03:10 unhappy birthday
lady nothing is not bert jansch tune, john renbourn made that, bert used it in one of his records and now jhonny marr use it in his.
Much as I like the guitar playing of Johnny Marr and Bert Jansch I have to correct Johnny here.
Ladye Nothinge's Toye Puffe is a John Renbourn composition:

What's the name of The Smiths song that sounds around second 25? cheers
Bigmouth Strikes Again
@@themodernday5699 thank you :)
song at the start?
In case you haven't found it yet: Pentangle - Hunting Song. It's gorgeous.
What yamaha is this?? Anyone know?
I'm trying to find that out too! It's gorgeous. I think it MIGHT be an L series of some kind but I'm not sure.
I think it might be an LLX-400.
Yes, it says so in the video description.
What’s up with the dislikes? Baffles me? ????
Anyone know the song @1:00?
Train Song by Pentangle.
@@theodoricsmith577 Hey, legend! Thanks heaps!
It's Jansch, not Yansch.
Yes, it annoys me how many so-called music experts get this wrong.
I was lucky enough to meet Jacqui McShee after a concert and she told me Bert himself ALWAYS insisted it was pronounced Jansch.
*-what would SPM think of all this-*
holy crap boo
wtf
need to try a thumbpick
'dzanch', not 'yanch'.
Thanks for clearing that up. I've been pronouncing it the first way, so when I heard the interviewer say, "yanch," I was like I've been pronouncing his name wrong this whole time. So I'm relieved to see it's the interviewer who's mistaken. Hahaha
I love the smiths ,except Mr Morrison. Johnny is a top class individual,like Bert in his own way ,a complete artist.
Can't stand the presenter , a sponge not a creator.
Influenced John Lennon?, not too sure about that. Donovan certainly influenced him; Donovan was with the Beatles in India when he taught John Lennon the finger picking style. Bert Jansch though, never heard about that.
And Donovan was influenced by..? We're talking about a very fluid time where all these people were bumping into each other constantly in clubs and art school and such. Donovan learned fingerpicking from Mac MacLeod who learned a lot hanging out with Renbourn, who famously shared a house with Jansch and half a dozen other people. During that time when The Beatles rocked their Rickenbackers on Hard Days' Night the guitar was actually not welcome in the folk clubs. That all changed with Davy Graham, and then Paul Simon showed up and stoked the competitive fires (and ripped off Martin Carthy), and then came the night when Al Stewart dragged Jimmy Page in to hear Bert play Blackwaterside.. and Rubber Soul took us from stereo Rickenbacker 12-strings to Paul's 1964 Epiphone Texan sound.
Yeah? very good. But back to what was said though..
Lennon would never have been able to play any of Bert's compositions/arrangements even if he'd wanted to.
Kershaw as clueless as ever , Marr plays an unfamiliar chord => "He broke all the rules!" , last I heard his ex took a restraining order out on him and he really liked a drink. I will never work out why him or his porcine sister got jobs on national radio/tv . Nice to hear Johnny Marr though , interesting .
His name is bert jansch not bert yansch
