I found this after my daughter became obsessed with Theo's cover of Helplessly Hoping, and what a find. This is clean and restrained and a little atmospheric -- all things the original is not -- but Theo still drives the guitar with Bert's intensity. And it appears he accomplished all that in his damned bedroom. It's a great cover and it made me want to buy Theo's albums... except there aren't any. Yet. We're waiting, Theo.
Wonderful! I am a diehard Bert Jansch fan. This is the best cover of the song I have ever heard. You not only capture the spirit of the song but you make it your own.
This is amazing man! Best version of this song without Bert on the fiddle. I'd really love to see a tab for some of this, if you have or could do one. Excellent
What a brilliant cover of one of his best songs. Thank you for sharing this ❤
How come this hasn't got a million vies, it's excellent !

So very great, I have to say. It's rare a cover being true to the original and also just as great in its/your own way. I am truly impressed.
One word BEAUTIFUL!!
Thanks for keeping Bert’s memory and music alive.

As a longtime Jansch fan - I'd say this is the best cover of his I've ever heard...stripped down and to the point. Great job!
