When I did this weekly song project first time around in '11, Bert Jansch sadly passed away. This time, the news of John Renbourn passing away reached me today. A true guitar hero and songwriter, founder member of Pentangle, teacher, solo performer. Amazing dude. I luckily had occasion to meet him a couple of times, sweet guy. RIP
This is a song I wrote this morning thinking about his passing
