Pentangle / The Albums: 1968-1972
Cherry Red will release Pentangle: The Albums a new seven-CD box set featuring albums and unreleased material from folk’s first ‘supergroup’ Pentangle.
The band were formed in 1967 and comprised the twin guitar/songwriting talents of Bert Jansch and John Renbourn with bassist Danny Thompson, drummer Terry Cox and singer Jacqui McShee. All six of their albums (issued between 1968-1972) feature in the new set, five of which were originally issued on folk label Transatlantic and the last on Reprise.
To mark the 50th anniversary of the band’s formation this new box not only features all the long-players but each has been expanded with a wealth of bonus material, including selections from contemporaneous solo LPs by Bert Jansch and John Renbourn, out-takes and live tracks. 22 of these tracks are previously unreleased.
The albums come in vinyl replica card sleeves and sit alongisde an 88-page booklet that includes 20,000 words of sleeve notes and a Q&A culled from past interviews with band members.
Pentangle: The Albums will be released on 29 September 2017.
