With the passage of over 40 years it can be hard to bring back to mind the sheer pleasure of the 60's folk revival, the joy of live music played by real people. This CD not only refreshes the memory but enlivens the musical taste buds: a joy from start to finish. Renbourn's playing is a delight and the collection of tracks here spanning his career has prompted me to buy some of the CD's from which the anthology has been compiled to widen my collection. This CD is a great pleasure and has revived my interest in acoustic guitar playing and contemporary folk music and its cross-overs with jazz and classical music. Highly recommended.

A Baroque Music from a 20th Century Man.
17 Oct 2011
Format:Audio CD
John Renbourn has had such a long and distinguished career as a pivotal member of the British folk and blues scene.
As a collaborator with the late Bert Jansch, on duet albums or with the band Pentangle, his approach to the blues or the sarabande is loved by many. In the latter part of an ongoing recording career he has developed his fine steel stringed guitar music, un-accompanied or together with recorders, tabla and combined voices to paint a fine picture of the Nineteenth Century 'Arts and Craft' movements' prettiest and most reverberant colours.
This fine anthology follows John from his Davy Graham, Bert Jansch and Doris Henderson days in sixties London, Doris Henderson features on two songs here and is a revelation, through until very recently. Follwing Pentangle Renbourn developed an entirely unique ouvre of 17th and 18th century touched work, not out of place alongside Stendahl's 'The Red and the Black' or the finest in Rococo architecture.
A beautiful and dynamic body of work for the Rennaisance man and woman in us all; highly recommended.
