5.0 out of 5 stars
One of Pentangles best albums,
This review is from: Solomon's Seal (Audio CD)
In my opinion, this is one of Pentangles best albums. It's a summing up of all their earlier works, with addition of new ideas and directions.The main feature, though, is that it containes their best ever recording, a tune called "The Snows".It's an amazing song, based on a Northumbrian pipe tune, but also obviusly related to a medieval German tune called "Winter muss hinweichen" (Winter must go away). One wonders how things would have turned out if the band hadn't split after this album.

My Favourite Pentangle Album,
By Mr. M. P. Duffy (Littlehampton, West Sussex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Solomon's Seal (Audio CD)
Of all the Pentangle albums, this is by far my favourite - if you could add Cruel Sister & Let No Man Steal Your Thyme to it, it would be perfect! Sally Free & Easy is sublime, and the only song that betters it in my mind is Willy O'Winsbury (the tune of which will be familiar to Fairport fans as it was used to set the words of Farewell Farewell to). The only song I'm not too keen on is the Lady of Carlisle, but then you can't have everything!

at last a CD release,
By
This review is from: Solomon's Seal (Audio CD)
This album from the latter years of Pentangle is one of their very best. It was originally released during the autumn and even now, to me, it still has that autumnal feel about it. This is summed up by the wonderful version of 'The Snows', often called 'The snow it melts the soonest'. This is Bert Jansch at his very best. The whole album has a kind of haunting quality to it. A very welcome release.
