R.I.P. John Renbourn


One of my favorite musicians. So sad to lose another.

John Renbourn Obituary

That sucks in a huge way. What a tremendous guitar player he was. Bert Jansch got more pub, but Renbourn was IMO every bit as compelling a guitarist. I remember playing a Rebourn CD for my guitar teacher and asking him how to replicate some of Renbourn's stuff. The guy just looked at me and said "forget it".

I'm sad.
So very sad and such a loss, my sympathy to his family and close friends. He shall be missed. In the morning I shall listen to Sir John A lot in his memory.
One of my favorite guitarists as well, extremely versatile. I far preferred his playing to Jansch's in the Pentangle days.
A wonderful man and a true scholar and musician is gone the way of all flesh. Bless you, Mr. Renbourn.
Yes, agreed I was sad to see he passed away. As a relatively young person I did not realize until reading the obituary in the NYT how much he contributed to guitar players over the years. Playing my Pentangle album in honor of a great musician! If anyone has other recommendations by Mr. Renbourn, please post.
