Product Description

Description
Pentangle were at the top of the British folk-rock heap, easily the equal of contemporaries like Fairport Convention, but their commercial peak came in 1969 with BASKET OF LIGHT. The last album the original lineup made before running out of steam altogether was 1972's SOLOMON'S SEAL. While the album features the band's trademark mix of folk, rock, and jazz,the double guitar threat of John Renbourn and Bert Jansch and the study-in-contrasts vocal interplay of Jansch and Jacqui McShee, there's a greater clarity and focus to the sound.While this results in less raw immediacy than Pentangle enjoyed on some of their earlier albums, it also makes for a more deliberate overall feel; in other words, the last album of the band's initial incarnation is probably the one that came out most closely to what they intended.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of Pentangles best albums, 3 Dec 2004
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars at last a CD release, 5 Dec 2003
By Mr. Geoffrey M. Teece "gmteece2" (Birmingham UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Favourite Pentangle Album, 27 Oct 2007
By Mr. M. P. Duffy (Littlehampton, West Sussex United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
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!
