5.0 out of 5 stars Pentangle go more traditional to great effect, 31 May 2002
By A Customer
I have to admit that this is the only Pentangle album I have so far (not for long though) so I don't have a reference point as to how it compares to their earlier albums. I'm surprised that there are no reviews for such a great album on yet, so I'll do my best! Cruel Sister is certainly a classic.

Regarded as less mainstream that their earlier efforts, Cruel Sister is like a walk in a magical medieval forest. The playing and vocals are beautiful and Jackie Mcshee's solo vocal song 'When I was in my prime' is quality - beautiful,moving -, fairly daring at the time but there's no doubt that it comes off.

'Lord Franklin' is my highlight, but there is no weak song among the 5. Only 5 songs? you say. Well, the final song on the CD 'Jack Orion' was the entire second side on vinyl and lasts something like 14 mins. My only complaint is that Cruel Sister is not longer.

Not sure if this is the best introduction to the group, as it's often best to start at the beginning, but I'd recommend this to anyone who likes any kind of folky music.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pentangle at their Best, 29 Jun 2002
By A Customer
I was very surprised that this album did not feature in Radio 2's top 50 folk albums. I rate this as the second best folk album of all time, only behind Fairport's "Liege and Lief".

Five brilliant tracks. Highlights being "A Maid That's Deep in Love", "Cruel Sister" and "Jack Orion" that features one of the best instrumentals ever produced, containing a fantastic but subtle guitar solo.

I have only got it on vinyl at the moment but just about to add it to my CD collection.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Folklie Album!, 27 Oct 2007
By Mr. M. P. Duffy (Littlehampton, West Sussex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This is a very enjoyable Pentangle album, although to be honest I find Jack Orion a rather drawn out & dull affair. I'd rather a couple more tracks in the vein of Cruel Sister & When I Was In My Prime. However, it's well worth adding to one's collection for the other tracks alone; it was a brave departure for Pentangle from their usual fare, and it's great that they persued musical integrity over fame. This is certainly an album that deserves a lot more praise than it has ever had.
