Song That’s Thrilling You Right Now…

[Hybridge]

Nice! Light Flight is the best. I saw Jacqui McShee and John Renbourn play Light Flight in a little bar next to a river around 5 or 6 years ago and it was too much.

Also too much–the Hillage riffs that sound like Shemp Howard (esp. around 7:26):

Light Flight is cool,you can hear a bit of Brubeck`s Take Five in there.I bought up most of the early Pentangle albums on vinyl this year.I still need to find Sweet Child!Neil Young declared Bert Jansch as ‘the Hendrix of the acoustic’.Renbourn is no slouch either

The Pentangle were jazzy; Danny Thompson’s playing sounds to me a bit like Mingus’, and I guess they used to play Haitian Fight Song. I’ve seen him play a bunch with Richard Thompson and he’s always awesome.

(for more Take Five resonances, check out Quicksilver Messenger Service’s Gold and Silver).

Re. Pentangle lps, Sweet Child is hard to find and I don’t think it was ever released on cd– get Reflection and Solomon’s Seal if you can–they’re great.

Bert Jansch was playing a bunch of shows with Pegi Young last summer but I was on the other coast and missed them. Renbourn and Jansch were big influences on Jimi Page, among others. Bert Jansch’s recent album Black Swan is pretty incredible; Beth Orton sings on a couple of songs, ‘s nice.

They used to play Mingus` Goodbye Pork Pie Hat too.I think Sweet Child is on cd.I did`nt know the vinyl was hard to find.I got Reflection and Solomon`s Seal plus the debut,Basket Of Light and Cruel Sister.Any of Renbourn`s albums worth getting?The record shop I go to has a bunch of his records.

I was wrong, it’s not Sweet Child that’s not on cd–I was thinking of Solomon’s Seal, which for a long time was on vinyl only, but now *is* out on cd.

It seems like all their albums are now easily available/orderable online. I don’t see much Pentangle at local record stores but have found Basket of Light, Solomon’s Seal, Sweet Child, Cruel Sister, and Reflection on vinyl; don’t own any Pentangle cds and don’t have their first album. Pentangle are awesome, a little formal, stiff, but all such incredible musicians, singers, and interpreters of folk music.

Any of the John Renbourn and Bert Jansch solo albums I’ve heard are worth listening to–I like John Renbourn’s Faro Annie a lot. Some of the electric guitar tunes on Faro Annie remind me of MV & EE, trippy folk blues. The John Renbourn Group’s A Maid in Bedlam (w/ Jacqui McShee) is great, nice versions of Black Waterside and Reynardine. The Lady and the Unicorn is pretty alright. Live in America is good, though I like his ’70s albums best.

Bert Jansch also does Reynardine and Black Waterside on his solo lps . Rosemary Lane, Moonshine, and Jack Orion are superb. When the Circus Comes to Town is also very good.

Thanks for the Renbourn recommendations.I have a couple of Jansch albums though not on vinyl.Birthday Blues is a good one and Sonic Youth name checked it in Wildflower Soul on A Thousand Leaves.Thurston says his daughter digs his Jansch records
I`ve seen the Pentangle debut on vinyl 3 times in the past year in my local vinyl shop.The copy I bought skipped in one song by after I played it a bit the skip went away.

You’re welcome. I didn’t know of Birthday Blues, but what I heard on youtube just now was great. It’s hard to keep up, they all put out so much good music.

The other day a friend sent me a link to the new, enormous Sandy Denny box set release–19 cds, lyric book, rare photos, etc. It looks incredible but I currently lack the spare $300 and shelf space. The small home is the enemy of completism.

Have you ever listened to Alasdair Roberts? If you like Pentangle and Sonic Youth you’d enjoy his playing. Here’s a clip of him doing Lyke Wake Dirge, which The Pentangle also recorded:

Thanks for the Alasdair Roberts vids!

Yeah the 19 cd Sandy set looks great but the price plus already having alot of Sandy`s music I don`t think I`d get.I recently found the album she did with The Strawbs on vinyl.I have the 4 record Who Knows Where The Times Goes set

Ever heard of the group Hank Dogs?Very Sandy Denny-ish/brit folk type stuff:

If you can find their Bareback album it`s quite nice
