No theatrics on stage! Just the magic of beautiful music, beautifully performed and sung. And no other group fused traditional folk with Jazz with such aplomb!
"Just the magic of beautiful music" And that's ALL we should need! Real music, performed by real musicians, requires NO artificial enhancements. Here, for example, Jacqui's voice _alone_ is worth more than any lighting rig (plus dance troupe, cavorting on stage, irrelevantly)!
I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED EVERY MEMBER OF THIS SO VERY VERY PRECIOUS BAND MY HUGGING THEM WOULD CRUSH THEIR LUNGS !!! WE ARE ALL SUCH A BLESSED SPECIAL REFINED FAMILY , IT ALMOST KILLS ME WE DON'T ALL KNOW EACH OTHER. I WOULD HAVE GRANTED THIS BAND ETERNAL YOUTH IF I COULD HAVE. BLESS THEM AND THEIR FANS. NUFF SAID
When I was in boarding school (1968-1971) we would listen to Pentangle nearly every morning before classes! There’s nothing like this now! Our school was up in the mountains above Ventura, Ca in Ojai. Kind of fit the area and the times.. that and mostly Scottish by heritage
Pentangle are ALWAYS wonderful - but there is something in the melody of Willy O'Winsbury, and of course the timeless bardic delivery from Jacqui McShee that just pulls at my heart. The result is, simply, sublime.
It's great to see so many humbling and truly appreciative comments here today about this timeless and fantastic group, The Pentangle. That so many comment, they just discovered them recently. I was about 20 years old in 1974, when the second FM radio station in the nation that played long LP tracks by the Christmas season of 1968, KINK FM 102 in our hometown of Portland Oregon was soon playing the Pentangle's music. This just after KSAN FM in San Francisco started what became known soon as the first FM underground station in the Summer of 1968. I soon lost all interest in the more usual pop music, especially when I personally heard that first track by the Pentangle one day in 1974 on Portland's KINK FM. It was the opening title track to the Sweet Child Album. I was soon out into my first car, my Datsun 1600 Roadster in our parents driveway, and driving to the local most eclectic record store here, Music Millennium. I believe I called them on the phone to make sure they had this album. It's a double vinyl disc on the import from England Transatlantic label. I still have it today in nearly pristine condition. If others are familiar with it, it's album cover laminated with a glossy protective covering, and that huge colorful pentangle symbol, it's a beautiful fold out like a book cover. The inside shows all the group members standing full body, across in vertical black & white photos, with a short quote by each group member. There is a brief write-up by music critic, above on the inside cover. I believe his last name is Keepnews. He describes the groups music as a unique combination of folk, classical, jazz, and blues. Jump ahead many years later, I think it was around 2012 here in Portland Oregon that Bert Jansch came to play solo at the Mississippi Studios in North Portland. I had already seen John Renbourn play solo at a local community college chapel some years before. That was a special moment. And I wish I had taken my Sweet Child album cover to have him sign it. So I did it this time when I saw Bert Jansch play. It was a small hall of maybe several hundred people packed standing in front of the stage while he played acoustic guitar and sang a little for an hour or so. I took a short crude video lasting maybe only a minute or two with my small pocket digital camera then. More recently I used a better digital camera to record a couple numbers from the Sweet child album showing the needle tracking in the record groove up close. This can be seen in my Mark Seibold TH-cam Channel . It might only be one number with Jacqui singing solo on the Sweet Child album. At the concert by Bert, I'd taken a lady friend of my age and several younger friends that were musicians. At the end, everybody was leaving the hall, but I walked up to the stage and what I thought was a roadie just rounding up the music equipment and cables, I asked her if Bert might come back out because I'd like him to sign my Sweet Child album cover and let him know that it changed my life when I first heard his and the groups music, on a local FM station here in Portland when I was only 20 years of age in 1974. She said she'd go back and ask him to come out, and she kept working on rounding up the equipment to pack it away. My lady friend came back in from out toward the street with our younger friends and said come on Mark, let's go, he's not going to come back out. I just asked the lady rounding up the cables again if she's sure he would come out, and she said yes I'm sure he will, because I'm going to go ask him right now, he's my husband. I was so humbled I had to tell Bert's wife, oh thank you, I'm so honored to meet you before I meet Bert. He finally came walking out a few seconds later and I remember him struggling to walk a little, as it must have been the last year or two of his life. I shook his hand I told him that this album changed my whole life as appreciating great music when I was only 20. He said something and then he also mentioned that his favorite banjo player in the world is here in Portland Oregon. Then he signed his autograph to the photo inside the album cover and drew a quick circle with a star in the middle. I was told by others at all for the group members sign their names this way with the Pentangle monogram. So I thanked him for coming to Portland, then we walked out. I don't think it was a year or two later I was driving in my car one night and listening to videos on TH-cam of the Pentangle. I saw people's condolences and respects paid about Bert, then realized he had just passed away. I'll never forget talking to him so close, the sound of his humble voice, and his handshake.
Salut mon ami, tu as découvert Pentangle avec 7 ans de retard. Jacqui McShee a dit : "J'avais l'habitude de chanter avec ma sœur (Pam, décédée) mais nous avons rompu notre duo et je l'ai remplacée par quatre hommes". * * Hello my friend, you discovered Pentangle 7 years late. Jacqui McShee said : "I used tae sing wi' mah sister (Pam, deceased), but we broke up the act an' I replaced her wi' four men".
I'm from Portland, too. I missed Bert at Mississippi Studios but caught him at the Aladdin and Lola's Room at the Crystal. Caught John Renbourn in Portland every chance I could. Even saw John and Jacqui at the Troubadour London. Have about 15 Pentangle related CDs.
Pentangle's music should be taught in schools as a compulsory part of a music course. Every young musician should be made to understand what miracles can happen when the right people come together. And "Light Flight" is nothing short of a miracle. After 50+ years my feet still start tapping on their own when that song comes on - I have no control over them.
TAUGHT IN SCHOOL, I'M AFRAID THE MASSES ARE LIGHT YEARS FROM SUCH REFINEMENT. PEARLS BEFORE SWINE. IT WOULD INTERUPT THEIR HIP HOP. "OUR" WORLD IS OVER.
Hard to shake the suspicion that Jacqui is a time traveler from early 17th century England. Her face is like a portrait from that bygone era. Were the players not up to her standards then? Was the whole folk/jazz scene in London of Shakespeare's time not to her liking? ;) Whatever the case, we're so fortunate she decided to land in 1960's England and carry on from there. What a wonderful voice and a timeless talent!
Yes! I could see her with a crown. Or as a beautiful peasant of that era. This music gives me the chills. I was born in 1973 and I’m thinking maybe I heard this on the radio as a child.
It is so pure it is so deep What a pleasure for my soul for all souls It is magic it is a massage for our hearts The Pentangle - sound is familiar to me from my teenage - times on It is a vademekum for my heart and soul Silence plays music
What absolutely beautiful and spellbinding music! I've only just discovered Pentangle a few weeks ago when TH-cam played a version of them doing Willy O'Winsbury after I had searched for and listened to Sandy Denny singing her classic "Who Knows Where The Time Goes." I've been a fan of Fairport Convention since the early 70s. The first song on this video reminds me strongly of the music of Renaissance and Annie Haslam. They were my favorite group back them and I saw them in concert 7 times.
I just love Pentangle! Went to see them live many times when I was late teens early twenties. I had a crush on Jacqui Mc Shee at the time, and now just wish i had a voice like hers. (I started off male but I am now female, and have been that way for the the last 25 years!)
Pentangle were huge. John and Bert talked about how the constant touring across the world between 67 and 73 was just too much for a bunch of folkies, and it was that that eventually decided the band's demise. They were the first folk music I heard when a mate played me Sweet Child back in 86. And John Renbourn still remains a massive influence on me. I had the privilege of meeting him several times. He was always very generous with his time, advice and support. Incredible band. What a wonderful way to start the day, not seen this footage before. Thanks for uploading, I'm going to have to re-read your book again. For those that don't know, Colin Harper wrote a wonderful book many years ago, 'Dazzling Stranger', ostensibly about Bert Jansch, but covered the history of the band as well.
Fantastic footage of a fantastic band. They were all brilliant. Jaqui's voice - as well as being astonishingly beautiful and otherworldly, is intonationally perfect. I really wish they'd covered more jazz-tinged material, much as I liked the traditional stuff, I thought they excelled [and led the way] in jazz-folk.
The version of Reflection here is priceless. They are as prog as any King Crimson. This is one of your best archive selections CH. Thanks again. And yes, Dazzling Stranger is a must read for you all.
Adverts that kick in the middle of songs? Totally unacceptable! It's not difficult to tell TH-cam that it's a song thing, and they wait for the pause...
OK, to the point. There is some cosmic harmonic confluence in the ballad Wille O Winsbury. Such a Druid like tale here sung by this beguiling lady with a face and voice to huant and heal with masterful accompaniment. I have known some other Gaelic melodies that enter your ears and go to some heartfelt emotional place. The British Isles, must be something in the Water.
@@snowfiresunwind Indeed it was. They never repeated it but in the mid-80s the BBC did briefly reprise as Take Three Women, looking at the lives of the Ladies 15 years on down the the road. Unfortunately didn’t see it so can’t comment.
They two or three tours to Australia maybe more also a tour with John Martyn saw a few shows also when Bert Jansch graced these shores...they were fantastic times...nothing like that will ever come round again so glad l was there....
Forgot to add a chatted with Bert in Katoomba Blue Mts Australia and he pointed me toward Dick Gaughan which was a superb tip off DGs Willie o Winsbury is truly a masterpiece
@@Melvorgazh At a folk festival here in England (city of Lincoln). Jacqui McShee's Pentangle headlined, and were brilliant, Jacqui still sounded great.
Meravigliosi Pentangle 🎶🎤🎸 Ho ascoltato John Renbourn in solo in due occasioni, poi Bert Jansch e Jacqui McShee e successivamente Danny Thompson con altri; speriamo che Terry Cox possa venire in Italia 🥁😉
Thank you for this wonderful clip. I love it how they spell John Renbourn’s name with an E at the end, like it was Melbourne, probably the city they recorded it in!
And barely seen on camera here, like he didn't exist. I'm sure he was simple and humble, and didn't mind that, but it is shame that such an important figure is left out :-( Nevertheless, lovely to see one of the best bands ever on footage like this!
Uncontaminated Britishness. Sad one must dig this out the accumulated sands of a fifty-two years period during which both the finest possible artistic expression and that particular thrust to freedom, fuelled by that unique sense of magic that used to gravitate about some undefined center somewhere in the British Islands, were gradually reduced to silence. Digging is how one finds gems, anyway.
i was never keen on folk. they [pentangle] convinced me a bit. bert and john moved me in the same direction. then many years later i discovered irish music. .sharon shannon. of course, i am getting older and my taste natuarally [spelling]? changes. Danny Thompson with John Martyn sealed my fate.
Le titre de la seconde chanson est en vérité : "Willie O' Winsbury". The title of the second song is actually : "Willie O' Winsbury". La télévision australienne a mal orthographié le nom du guitariste électrique qui est : "REMBOURN" et de prénoms : John William Mark. Cette même télévision a amputé de 3 mn la chanson : "Reflection" ce qui constitue un crime de lèse-majesté. Cette même chanson se trouve dans l'album "Refection" sorti en octobre 1971. Avant dernier album avant leur séparation en octobre 1972. Puis, une reformation exceptionnelle à l'identique a eu lieu le 14/02/78 pour un concert à Bremen, Allemagne puis une autre reformation a eu lieu en 1983 pour l'album : "Open the door" sorti en 1984, mais sans J. Rembourn parti définitivement en plein milieu d'une tournée australienne pour suivre les cours for music degree à Londres. Australian television misspelled the electric guitarist's name as : "REMBOURN" and first name as : John William Mark. This same television station cut the song : “Reflection” by 3 minutes, which constitutes a crime of lèse-majesté. This same song is found in the album "Refection" released in October 1971. Penultimate album before their separation in October 1972. Then, an exceptional identical reformation took place on 02/14/78 for a concert in Bremen, Germany then another reformation took place in 1983 for the album : "Open the door" released in 1984, but without J. Rembourn leaving permanently in the middle of an Australian tour to follow the music degree courses in London. À part les albums : "A maid in Bremen" 1978 + "A maid in Bedlam" 1977 (sans Terry Cox, sans Dany Thompson, sans B. Jansch mais avec Sue Draheim (US violoniste) et Tony Roberts, flautist et Keshave Sathe aux tablas) & « Live this day (Live Oslo 1968) » + « Live in France 1972" sortis après leur séparation, tous les autres albums de 1975 à 2000, vous pouvez les jeter. Apart from the albums : "A maid in Bremen" 1978 + "A maid in Bedlam" 1977 (without Terry Cox, without Dany Thompson, without B. Jansch but with Sue Draheim (US violinist) and Tony Roberts, flautist and Keshave Sathe on tablas) & “Live this day (Live Oslo 1968)” + “Live in France 1972” released after their separation, all the other albums from 1975 to 2000, ye can throw 'hem away.
Once again (like in the Belgium TV appearance), almost no trace of John Renbourn on the screen. Seems an habit and maybe to his onw request. Does someone know?
No theatrics on stage! Just the magic of beautiful music, beautifully performed and sung. And no other group fused traditional folk with Jazz with such aplomb!
"Just the magic of beautiful music"
And that's ALL we should need! Real music, performed by real musicians, requires NO artificial enhancements. Here, for example, Jacqui's voice _alone_ is worth more than any lighting rig (plus dance troupe, cavorting on stage, irrelevantly)!
Moments like these convince me Pentangle was the most innovative musical gift ever to come from the shores of Britain.
I agree 100%

Not to mention the absolute technical brilliance of this band , so incredibly perfect, never missing a beat or a note. Amazing
Jacqui didn't need auto-tone, unlike most singers today. Angelic voice.

And a musical talent to match.

BLESSED BE.
Best performance of Wilie of Winsbury I've ever heard by them. Jacqui McShee's voice is angelic.
It's good, George - but this performance is the killer. th-cam.com/video/nwqP_yoszCE/w-d-xo.html

Music doesn't get much better than this
Great. The accompaniment allows the voice to be heard, and what a voice!
Magical !! Pentangle.
What a voice. So crystal clear, such perfect phrasing.
Just breathtakingly beautiful. What a band, what a singer!
One of the greatest, most musical bands ever IMO
Fairport Convention, Incredible String Band, Pentangle, three great treasures.
I am 6 years old at the time of this recording. Presently I am in love with Jacqui.
This one should be put in a time capsule.72 was a haunted year.Cameraman was as taken with her as the rest of us were...
The Philistines at TH-cam interrupt Jacqui with adverts!
Fantastıc. It never gets stale.
Danny Thompson is magnificent
as john martyn realised
Oh yes… genius !!!
They're all magnificent.
Timeless sound. Could be made today and sound fresh.

It's a double vinyl disc on the import from England Transatlantic label. I still have it today in nearly pristine condition.
If others are familiar with it, it's album cover laminated with a glossy protective covering, and that huge colorful pentangle symbol, it's a beautiful fold out like a book cover. The inside shows all the group members standing full body, across in vertical black & white photos, with a short quote by each group member.

Wow…the cadence is brilliant 🤗🙏🍺cheers
Magical! Never saw this one before! R.I.P. Bert & John.
There are few "meetings" that result in magic, bassist, guitarist, dulcimerist, percussionist and yes sublime is the word. And one perfect soprano!
Just amazing - I can't get enough of them
Once we were young and beautiful. And now we are time ruined .
Best version of 'Willie o Winsbury' I've heard so far!

I love this rendition of this folk Classic of this song , but I just wish that there was a live version of Anne Briggs version .
❤❤
Thank you for this wonderful clip. I love it how they spell John Renbourn’s name with an E at the end, like it was Melbourne, probably the city they recorded it in!
Thanks for uploading. Great footage.
Your archive seems endless Colin. Can't keep up !
John was a huge influence on me.

Apparently, the cameraman had some problem with Bert Jansch, as he clearly didn't want him to appear on camera.
I think he was too smitten with Jacqui's beautiful eyes.
I think she was 28 when this was recorded, she looks considerably younger. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Camerawork and sound is a bit strange but thank you.
Bass Drum Guitar Vocal. That's it.
Poor Bert got left out of the naming on Reflection. Still, pretty cool.
And barely seen on camera here, like he didn't exist. I'm sure he was simple and humble, and didn't mind that, but it is shame that such an important figure is left out :-(
Nevertheless, lovely to see one of the best bands ever on footage like this!
Prog Folk Pioneers.
Uncontaminated Britishness. Sad one must dig this out the accumulated sands of a fifty-two years period during which both the finest possible artistic expression and that particular thrust to freedom, fuelled by that unique sense of magic that used to gravitate about some undefined center somewhere in the British Islands, were gradually reduced to silence. Digging is how one finds gems, anyway.
i was never keen on folk. they [pentangle] convinced me a bit. bert and john moved me in the same direction. then many years later i discovered irish music. .sharon shannon. of course, i am getting older and my taste natuarally [spelling]? changes. Danny Thompson with John Martyn sealed my fate.
Western civilisation peaked in 1972. This can't be done now, like building in stone.
Yes, we have fallen far,

Le titre de la seconde chanson est en vérité : "Willie O' Winsbury".
The title of the second song is actually : "Willie O' Winsbury".
La télévision australienne a mal orthographié le nom du guitariste électrique qui est : "REMBOURN" et de prénoms : John William Mark.
Cette même télévision a amputé de 3 mn la chanson : "Reflection" ce qui constitue un crime de lèse-majesté. Cette même chanson se trouve dans l'album "Refection" sorti en octobre 1971. Avant dernier album avant leur séparation en octobre 1972. Puis, une reformation exceptionnelle à l'identique a eu lieu le 14/02/78 pour un concert à Bremen, Allemagne puis une autre reformation a eu lieu en 1983 pour l'album : "Open the door" sorti en 1984, mais sans J. Rembourn parti définitivement en plein milieu d'une tournée australienne pour suivre les cours for music degree à Londres.
Australian television misspelled the electric guitarist's name as : "REMBOURN" and first name as : John William Mark.
This same television station cut the song : “Reflection” by 3 minutes, which constitutes a crime of lèse-majesté. This same song is found in the album "Refection" released in October 1971. Penultimate album before their separation in October 1972. Then, an exceptional identical reformation took place on 02/14/78 for a concert in Bremen, Germany then another reformation took place in 1983 for the album : "Open the door" released in 1984, but without J. Rembourn leaving permanently in the middle of an Australian tour to follow the music degree courses in London.
À part les albums : "A maid in Bremen" 1978 + "A maid in Bedlam" 1977 (sans Terry Cox, sans Dany Thompson, sans B. Jansch mais avec Sue Draheim (US violoniste) et Tony Roberts, flautist et Keshave Sathe aux tablas) & « Live this day (Live Oslo 1968) » + « Live in France 1972" sortis après leur séparation, tous les autres albums de 1975 à 2000, vous pouvez les jeter.
Apart from the albums : "A maid in Bremen" 1978 + "A maid in Bedlam" 1977 (without Terry Cox, without Dany Thompson, without B. Jansch but with Sue Draheim (US violinist) and Tony Roberts, flautist and Keshave Sathe on tablas) & “Live this day (Live Oslo 1968)” + “Live in France 1972” released after their separation, all the other albums from 1975 to 2000, ye can throw 'hem away.
Bonjour!
Once again (like in the Belgium TV appearance), almost no trace of John Renbourn on the screen. Seems an habit and maybe to his onw request. Does someone know?

2) willy of winsberry
So many unheard of, unpopular bands back then also......
Unpopular is the best.
Pentangle were very popular and travelled the world with their music. They had a huge following.
@@gabriellaklein8898 I only discovered them a few years back, I think they’re amazing.
@@gabriellaklein8898 And still do! Their music will live forever.
