There's something exciting about the first album of a band that goes on to greatness, and The Pentangle,
by the group of the same name, is no different. Here, the listener witnesses the first studio work
of a band struggling to get their essence down on vinyl.The album's spacious arrangements
take full advantage of stereo, mixing instruments to different tracks so that the listener,
for instance, can always hear Jansch's guitar on one side and Renbourn's on the other.
This group, it seems, had it all. Equally comfortable with traditional songs, instrumentals,
and originals, they made few missteps on their early albums. Like Fairport Convention
and the Incredible String Band, Pentangle specialized in updating British Isles' folk music ...(AllMusic)
