In 1966 two of England's best folk guitarists/singer-composers got together to collabrate on a joint project and the results were excellent. It led directly to the formation of the well-known folk group of the era, Pentangle. All of the tracks except two on this CD are short instrumentals; the longest is their version of the Charles Mingus jazz classic "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat" at 3:54 (incidentally it is interesting to compare this version with Jeff Beck's). Most of the tracks were written by the pair, either jointly or singly and contain plenty of innovative melodies, themes, and guitar licks. The total running time is a meagre 26:33, but there is plenty of absorbing accoustic guitar music within it.

This album is so much part of me, I really am struggling to describe why you should own it. It's the truest, most pure & wonderful music you can find. The songs have a haunting, seductive quality - you really feel Bert & John are having the time of their lives, and in total control of where they're taking you.

Just try it, you'll be suprised. After the 5th listen you'll have it on top of your CD pile...

Call me pedantic, but the great music on this disc is ruined for me by one of the two guitars (undoubtedly Bert Jansch's) being set up so poorly it's a downright pain to listen to. Quite simply, the instrument is buzzing and rattling very badly all the way through. It may be a consciously created effect to somewhat emulate the sound of a sitar. If so, the experiment didn't work. Jansch's pretty unbearable habit of pulling the strings to make them slap against the fretboard doesn't make it any better, particularly not when Renbourn starts to employ the same "technique". All this may have been less of a problem on the original vinyl, but on CD it is merciless, at least to my ears, and that is a big shame, because this is no doubt in all other respects a superb, path-breaking album. If you have no problem with the issues mentioned above I can strongly recommend it.
