For some wildass reason, I am sooooo into Pentangle right now I can hardly see straight! I fell in love with this band when I was in high school:
+ Danny Thompson was the hottest double bass player EVER!
+ Bert Jansch and John Renbourn ALWAYS blew me away as guitarists - still do
.
+ And dear Jacqui McShee melted my heart with her sweet but oh so damn cool vocals.
+ And let's not forget brother Terry Cox and all his subtly on drums.
Maybe it has something to do with playing all this jazz - clearly Pentangle (and Cannonball Aderly) were my jazz influences from a tender age - or maybe it has something to do with the season: these cats always evoked my longing for Spring. Who knows - it is just abundantly clear that I can't get enough of these guys and want to find my old albums - and get new CDs - to revel in the mystery and madness all over again!
Now it is YOUR turn: dig it!
WOOT - just went the basement and found some old VINYL in my ancient collection!!!!
