amazing. this was recorded at the same day but exactly 17 years before I was born. And yet I am a huge fan. Met pentangle on soulseek, while looking for folk songs when I was about 16 and obsesed with all things celtic (then folk derived from there). First song I listened to was scarborough fair. Now 20 years later it is still favorite band and my safe space, I can say anything in pentangle songs. I saw when the first videos were upload to youtube, at that time even lyrics were hard to come by. Now I am delighted by every live.
Pentangle were a unique band. A 'superstar' band that actually worked - no massive egos from any member to tear it all apart. PS John Renbourn took to the electric guitar very convincingly unlike some of the acoustic folkies of the period. The way he approached electric guitar reminds me very much of Lee Underwood's playing for Tim Buckley.
Haven’t heard this song in decades, but I’m transported to living on base in San Diego, to the back stairs of our overcrowded house. Is dance there with my sister, Monica, R.I.P. Good times!
It’s a song whose strength manifests itself when the audience join in. The Scot’s duo The Corries used to close with it and the you tube of the sound as the audience join is is emotionally powerful and transports the song to another place. Why it hasn’t been taken up by a football crowd like You’ll never walk alone is a puzzlement to me.
I saw Pentangle around that time at the Albert Hall - I was about 17. It seems like another universe, now! What amuses me about this video is the terribly serious expressions of the audience - they all look as though they were attending a funeral lol.
Love this Sound so much. The best way make my Soul happy in a "Different" World, The Sound from a vinyl record is incredible, from a CD rather bad, not lively. Mit Gras Genus wird es noch viel potenzialer. Love from Germany.
*_My grandpa makes sure that I'm fully educated on the the 60's and 70s utterly great_* *_music and the absolutely brilliant, unique, gifted bands and artists that there were then - There are none that can compare to them from that era ...._*
they actually do - it's just not thrust in your face. Some really beautiful folk, rock, jazz, psych sounds around at the moment, you just need to keep your sensors open !
How did this music not cross the pond back in the day? They are every bit the equal of any musical act of this genre coming out of the US or Canada, and that includes the top acts like Gordon Lightfoot, John Denver, or James Taylor. Better late than never, I guess.
Pentangle's music *did* cross the pond, from the UK to the US, back in the day. However, in the US, their music reached, and was appreciated, only by niche or esoteric circles.
I always liked their version of Willy o winsbury but never thought of them as top tier musicians compared to the likes of Jethro Tull and others from the era. Then this randomly pops up as a suggestion and I find myself in a whole new world.
I hear what you're saying and if applied to modern pop music, you would be mostly correct. However, there are many indie and underground artists who possess those qualities. They just don't get any air time because the music industry is not about music- it's about making money.
@@davids4003 Agree with you sir. There are always talented kids out there. My philosophy was learn all you can and get out there. Get good. Not sure how kids do it these days. All on line?
It is still out there, same as it was then. Also the same, as in it's not aimed at the masses. Proper music, rather than the musical equivalent of McDonald', as in bland, boring and directed at people who don't care about what they're listening to. This is brilliant.
Huh. I am a naturally high soprano. I learned the basics off of Julie Andrews and this lady and ended up being a high coloratura. It's a pity she never really followed up.
WTF ! I feel like I've just been dragged into an urban legend and about to murdered in some horrific manner unless I share the video and pass on the curse.. .....
Beautiful and creative. Imagine the present day version of this: Brexit and stabbings, austerit-ee, wasting time on social media, hate and intolerance, the rise of the far right, Donald Trump and Nigel Farage, bush fires and melting ice ... Ba - da - pa do da da - ba - pa do da da...!!
A moment in time that will never be repeated. Sublime.
um... just like every single other moment you mean?
@@matycee I see that poetry is completely lost on you
Ethereal. The music of angels and fairies.
Pure class! Real Musicians playing real music....
My God. How incredible is this?
Seeing Jacqui McShee’s Pentangle on Tuesday - absolutely cannot wait!!!!!!!!! Have loved them for as long as I could appreciate music ❤

I love Celtic music,started listening to Scottish Moors, then onward,discovered all these greats❤
there’s nothing Celtic about this

Pentangle was contemporary with my teen years but I was barely aware of them. Now in my seventies, I truly enjoy their music.
Pentangle. Great Band.
Memories of my youth came flooding back! I remember buying this exquisite album and cherishing it.
Vintage Pentangle in HD!
Their best number, for me. I wish they’d done more in the same vein.
Jaqui’s exquiste voice!!
Reflexion....
This transcends music to become magic.
This is such a good song.
A time when music was music,no crap just pure music…
What a great live clip. Lovely tune in an unusual time signature.
Legendary band 🔥 🔥 🔥 Brings back many memories of yesteryear ✌🏼 ❤️ 🎶
Jesus, that voice. A real songbird.
Outstanding musicians and THAT perfect voice. My god, it doesn’t get, couldn’t get, any better than that. They captured lightning in a bottle. ✌🏻💜☀️
I don't know which is the best, the guitars, that voice! or that bass! Actually, all of it.
Everything about this song is exemplary...one of my fave tunes from this underrated outfit!
Its just plain GROOVY!!❤
Haven’t heard this song in decades, but I’m transported to living on base in San Diego, to the back stairs of our overcrowded house. Is dance there with my sister, Monica, R.I.P. Good times!
Perfection. And live too. Beat that.
Jethro Tull were also perfect live. Not so anymore.
Beatiful ❤
Loved this band back in the day and still do today.
I love hearing every plink-plonk when i listen to music; they are therefore, my favorite band.
had a bit of a problem with shoe gaze for that reason.
Pure Class
❤❤❤
magic!
I remember this so well! 😊
音も佇まいもファッションも総てが格好良い。
Wonderful just wonderful
Always is been my favor folk English band.
(5/4 +7/4) amazing bass player and drummer ❤
Blown away by this band!
Accidentally had playback speed at 1.5. was thinking wow nice jam! Class group.
At 2x speed, WOW!
Take three girls loved the program beautiful
truly magical ♥
Magnificent Pentangle!!💜
People say to me, "Oh you like Pentangle, you must like [ insert random folk artist]. "
Me: Er, no.
They’re a genre in themselves sometimes
Anne Briggs ❤@@mothwings99
Loving these new remastered uploads, the quality is amazing, thank you so much.
I saw them live in the 1980s, and Bert a few years later. Wonderful, wonderful band.
Danny Thompson is so propulsive on Bass!
Great sound loved it

Honey to my ears.
Beautiful girl and beautiful music!

I was there also a great concert as I remember 😊
They were serious...about the music. Nowt wrong with that, known as appreciation of something amazing. Was just like that then.
Love this Sound so much. The best way make my Soul happy in a "Different" World, The Sound from a vinyl record is incredible, from a CD rather bad, not lively. Mit Gras Genus wird es noch viel potenzialer. Love from Germany.
Top tune !!
Nothing like this today!
People don't make music like this anymore.
Sad, but true.

Loved it!
I find myself listening to this and waiting for the Take Five symbols to come in 😅
What a beauty of a voice. I bet the girls from Stereolab were influenced.
Theme to the BBC series Take Three Girls.
Awesome. :-)
The very best

🔥🔥🔥
Beutiful
Ppl never mention it, but that Thompson bass - Jezzz.
The extraordinary Danny Thompson.
His work with Nick Drake was incredible too.
@@christianlacheze3323 Indeed; I, a Scandinavian, made a pilgrimage to Tanworth-in-Arden once and to the churchyard, a fantastic place.
Sounds extremely difficult to sing and Jacquie absolutely nails it
♥
So bad ass
Theme tune to Take Three Girls
So underrated
Was this a theme to a tv series?
Yes, Take Three Girls.
There are a few episodes on the net , take three girls,, would love the full set if anyone has them ,thank you
yes.
👌
🌹🎼♥️
I miss you Mia
Played at the ill-fated krumlin festival 1970.
Pa da pa di da da
Ian Gillan at 1:46 front row, lol!
Not my era but 👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿
Sqauts, social security, cheap housing, pubs n clubs = creativity.
Beautiful. Do you know the size of this? What material is the backdrop?
Back when music required some investment, intelligence to write, sing, play and appreciate.

@pinball1979 please listen to the band king gizzard & the lizard wizard and write me what you think
You had to work at it to find it then and you have to work at it now
As Thomas Wolfe wrote, "Things never were what they once were."
Was the the Two Brewers, Clapham, S London?
This is "Beatnik". Now you know.
no it isn’t
Captured for posterity. The very best of the best. Thank you.

alchemy
Feel like i'm in a scene from The Wicker Man
A group that was less than the sum of its parts?
:-)
WTF !
I feel like I've just been dragged into an urban legend and about to murdered in some horrific manner unless I share the video and pass on the curse.. .....
What's with being in the audience & being too cool for school?
Better than Zeppelin. Last one.

We will take your lands. Thats what they said, and its happening. No need for terrorist acts, not when we can simply wade ashore.
they need to lose that drummer
Terry Cox is a great drummer.
Kidding right???
Stupid comment
Other worldly. Wicker Man, Hammer House. England before she died. I miss her so.
