PENTANGLE The Pentangle TRANSATLANTIC 1st Press A//2 B//1.BEAUTIFUL!!. GREAT COPY!!!!.  1st Press!!!!!.
A BREAKDOWN OF THE ARTIST/S :- Formed in 1967, Pentangle was inspired by Bert And John, a collaborative album by folk musicians Bert Jansch (Born 3 November 1943, Glasgow, Scotland) and John Renbourn (Born Torquay, Devon, England). Vocalist Jacqui McShee (Born Catford, South London, England) an established figure on the traditional circuit, joined Danny Thompson (Born April 1939, London, England; bass) and Terry Cox (drums), both of Alexis Korner's Blues Incorporated, in a quintet which also embraced blues and jazz forms. Their respective talents were expertly captured on The Pentangle, where the delicate acoustic interplay between Jansch and Renbourn was brilliantly underscored by Thompson's sympathetic support and McShee's soaring intonation. Stylish original material balanced songs pulled from folk's heritage ("Let No Man Steal Your Thyme", "Brunton Town"), while the inclusion of the Staple Singers' "Hear My Call" confirmed the group's eclecticism. This feature was expanded on the double-set Sweet Child, which included two compositions by jazz bass player Charles Mingus, "Haitian Fight Song" and "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat". The group enjoyed considerable commercial success with Basket Of Light, which included "Light Flight", the theme song to the UK television series, Take Three Girls. However, despite an undoubted dexterity and the introduction of muted electric instruments, subsequent releases were marred by a sense of sterility, and lacked the passion of concurrent releases undertaken by the two guitarists. 
Pentangle was disbanded in 1972, following which Thompson began a partnership with John Martyn. Cox undertook a lucrative session career before backing French singer Charles Aznavour, and while Jansch continued his solo career, McShee fronted the John Renbourn Band between 1974 and 1981. The original Pentangle reconvened the following year for a European tour and Open The Door, although defections owing to outside commitments led to considerable changes. McShee, Cox and Jansch were joined by Nigel Portman-Smith (bass) and Mike Piggott for 1985's In The Round. Cox was then replaced by Gerry Conway and Piggott by Rod Clements (ex-Lindisfarne) for 1988's So Early In The Spring. Think Of Tomorrow, released three years later, saw Clements make way for guitarist Peter Kirtley. The same line-up also completed 1993's One More Road and 1994's Live. At this time Jansch once more became distracted by solo projects and the group's later shows saw him replaced by former Cat Stevens' guitarist Alun Davies. In 1995 McShee released her debut solo album (with Conway and John Martyn's ex-keyboard player Spencer Cozens). The following spring Renbourn and McShee celebrated 30 years of playing together with a series of concerts.

THE HISTORY OF THE RECORD :- The Pentangle was the 1968 debut album of the band Pentangle: Terry Cox, Bert Jansch, Jacqui McShee, John Renbourn and Danny Thompson. It brought together their separate influences of folk, jazz, blues, early music and contemporary song-writing. One of the band's most commercially successful albums, it reached number 21 in the British charts. 
By the time that the album was produced, the members of Pentangle were already accomplished musicians, in their own fields, and had played together in various combinations. Jansch and Renbourn were recognised as solo artists and played together regularly, including their recording of the Bert And John album. McShee had sung folk and blues in pubs and clubs, and had recorded with Renbourn on Another Monday. Cox and Thompson were experienced session musicians and had played together in Alexis Korner's band. Richie Unterberger's said of the album "If it was more a folk-jazz-blues stew than it was folk-rock, it certainly rocked with a beat, and was executed with vocal harmonies, vocal and instrumental solo trade-offs, and a daring, irreverent spirit that immediately connected with rock-oriented listeners. And rock listeners, rather than folk ones, probably comprised the majority of the Pentangle's audience." The Pentangle album was released in the UK as an LP as Transatlantic TRA162 on 17 May 1968.

GRADING:

All records are graded using the UK ‘Record Collector’ format:

MINT (M): The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. 

EXCELLENT (EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. 

VERY GOOD (VG): The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

FAIR (F): The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

POOR (P): The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD (B): The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
