Our Take

Ah, Pentangle - the band that defined folk rock in the swinging sixties. And now, with their latest release, "Live On Air 1967-1969," we get a peek into their early days as a group.

Listening to this album is like taking a time machine back to a smoky pub in London, where the music is raw, the energy is palpable, and the hairspray is abundant. The chemistry between the members is undeniable, with Bert Jansch's intricate guitar work weaving seamlessly with Jacqui McShee's ethereal vocals.

The standout track on this album has to be their rendition of "Let No Man Steal Your Thyme." It's a hauntingly beautiful performance that showcases the band's ability to blend traditional folk melodies with a modern edge.

But it's not all seriousness and soul-searching - tracks like "Bruton Town" and "Once I Had a Sweetheart" bring a sense of playfulness and joy to the album, reminding us that Pentangle knows how to have fun on stage.

Overall, "Live On Air 1967-1969" is a must-listen for any fan of folk music or anyone looking to transport themselves back to the golden era of British rock. So grab a pint, put on your best paisley shirt, and let Pentangle take you on a journey through time and space. Cheers, mate.
