The high profile names of John Renbourn and Bert Jansch remain coveted enough to warrant excitement at any retrospective release, but combined with Danny Thompson and Jacqui McShee, this is a delightful insight into one of Britain’s finest folk rock bands to emerge in the late ‘60s. Pentangle’s legacy lies in an abundance of fragile, acoustic wonder spanning six albums with Transatlantic and Reprise Records from 1968 to 1972. Between the studio, television and festival appearances, Pentangle visited venues such as the Playhouse Theatre and Paris Theatre for the BBC. These pristine sessions reveal a valuable insight into the creative mindset directing the band in their heyday. London Calling proudly presents the Pentangle’s prized appearances for Top Gear and Top of the Pops from November ‘68 to July ‘69, including a duet of Jacqui McShee and John Renbourn on Night Ride in December 1968. Professionally re-mastered original broadcasts with background liners and rare period photos.
