Kingfisher - Bert Jansch: Lesson

Designed as a companion to the transcription in The Bert Jansch Songbook Vol.2, this details the way Bert played it solo, in various versions following the original Avocet recording. As well as the official recordings on Live At McCabe's and Live At The 12-Bar, you can also reference a YouTube video, where notation is shown beneath: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnbmkVKLkdw The lesson is introduced with a full playthrough (imperfect!), as I know some of you like to see that.
