Gordon Giltrap, the acclaimed English guitarist, presents "Janschology (Anniversary Edition)," a re-release of his 2000 album, now available as a download to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the passing of Bert and Loren. This folk rock and progressive rock gem spans a concise yet impactful 22 minutes, featuring seven tracks that showcase Giltrap's virtuosic guitar work and heartfelt songwriting.
The album opens with the timeless "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face," followed by the poignant "Angie (Angelina)" and the introspective "Running From Home." "Chambertin" and "Blackwaterside" offer a blend of traditional folk influences and progressive rock elements, while "Roots" and the title track "Loren" provide a deeply personal and reflective close to the collection.
Originally released in 2000, "Janschology" was a tribute to the legendary Bert Jansch, and this anniversary edition includes a special recording that adds a new dimension to the album. Giltrap's masterful playing and evocative compositions make this a compelling listen for fans of folk rock and progressive rock alike. Whether you're a longtime admirer of Giltrap's work or a newcomer to his music, this album is a testament to his enduring talent and artistic vision.
