Bert Jansch
Final years and death: 1992–2011.
After recording, he accompanied Babyshambles' lead singer Pete Doherty on several acoustic gigs, and performed on the Pete and Carl Reunion Gig, where ex-Libertines and Dirty Pretty Things singer Carl Barat joined Doherty on stage. 
 In 2009, he played a concert at the London Jazz Cafe to celebrate the release of three of his older albums ("LA Turnaround", "Santa Barbara Honeymoon" and "A Rare Conundrum") on CD format. However, later that year, due to an unexpected illness, he had to cancel a 22-date North American tour that was due to start on 26 June. Jansch's website reported: "Bert is very sorry to be missing the tour, and apologises to all the fans who were hoping to see him. He is looking forward to rescheduling as soon as possible." 
 Jansch opened for Neil Young on his "Twisted Road" solo tour in the US and Canada, starting on 18 May 2010. He also performed at Eric Clapton's Crossroads festival in June 2010. These were Jansch's first shows since his illness.
