I'm 62 and we miss this guy so much, he started us all playing fingerstyle and loving a well-played guitar. As to versions, I love this it's fast, raw and full of heart but it would a shame if everyone liked exactly the same thing wouldn't? For younger folks who've stumbled on this, I'd recommend also Michael Chapman, John Renbourn [played a lot with Bert] and Fairport Convention in the Sandy Denny period. Peace and love...
