***NOW AVAILABLE ON VINYL!!! Drag City is “chuffed” to announce the first-time release on CD of the three albums BERT JANSCH recorded for the famous Charisma Label in the 1970s: L.A. Turnaround, Santa Barbara Honeymoon and A Rare Conundrum, all of which have been out of print for decades and are among the most sought-after Jansch albums among fans and collectors. Bert Jansch was signed to Charisma by label boss Tony Stratton Smith in 1973, the year that PENTANGLE decided to go their separate ways. Santa Barbara Honeymoon was recorded in America over a two-month period the following year and is a further departure for Bert Jansch, mixing his familiar style with a definitive L.A. over-the-top production sound, featuring backing singers and session players including horns, steel drums and a Dixieland band. "is wasn’t what most people wanted or expected from a Bert Jansch album, but time has kindly tucked the outrages of three decades ago beneath the intrigue of the sound, accenting some of Jansch’s best songs of the period.
