It makes me sad to look back especially with Bert and John both now deceased but this is a lovely song and arrangement. The harmonies of Jacqui and Bert were a perfect match. What a great combination of talents Pentangle were and their unique music will always sound magical to me.
Their poorest album though still had a few good tracks. An American feel to it. I believe that John and Bert were being bold boys at the time and there was a lot of disharmony, metaphorically at any rate, in the recording studio.
I agree that the conditions under which _Reflection_ was produced were the most disharmonious, but I think the album itself is brilliant. Their catalogue is so eclectic, and so much a reflection of their diversity of influences, that it would be very difficult for me to pick out a "best" or "worst"; each album has its unique features and a direction that is somewhat different from all the others, to recommend it.
John Collum Not really, most of the time Denny leaves me cold. Her work with Fairport is amazing, but truth be told Pentangle is far and away a more accomplished act, followed closely by Steeleye Span.
I must have played this song 500 times, since discoving it 50 years too late. Simple, yet stunning. Jackie's voice is purely perfect, the guitars are phenomenal and THAT bass!?! On to another 500 listens.
What superb film quality. I always enjoyed watching their frequent TV appearances of that era. A really talented group - with the great voice of JM to the fore.
Here are the lyrics if anyone is curious... Just like the songbird, deep in the forest I sing praises but you never hear And deep in my body my song is silent But contented at times when you're near Please listen to me and I will tell thee All those words that have never been said They shout inside me but then they cower Behind weakness that's ruling my head I dearly love thee and not one other With a sweetness that lies in my breast 'Tis you that made me but God forbade me To uncover my heart to love's test No love is sorrow and now I'm happy To have thee in this world for my love And now you must know my soul is for thee That's why this life is my soaring dove That's why this life is my soaring dove
I love this song. I'm sure this is what Mr Blackbird (the local friendly bird) chirps quietly to himself in the Wisteria at this time of year (November). Now to play it again....
Never heard of this group before. I'm 30 so maybe that's why. But i'm happy i found them. I'm fortunate enough to have a very broad taste in music. My dad has a couple thousand vinyl records and used to play them when i was a kid (still does of course, i'm just not living with my parents anymore). Lots of good music out there. Too bad some people exclusively listen to just one genre.
In folk/rock there is Fairport Convention, Fotheringay, Steeleye Span and Pentangle (from the UK). The only one who really made it commercially was Steeleye Span. They are all brilliant performers of Folk & Folk/rock.
Totally love this band.They remind me of Jesus Fellowship people hahaha.All their songs are a tribute to the late Noel Stanton.Wish it could be the 70's/80's again.
Jacqui Mcshee's voice was as singularly & hauntingly majestic and consummate as Judy Collins. One may discover a half a dozen such voices in a lifetime.😊
I saw once John Renbourn live in my hometown. Strangely that night there was a football match on TV. The concert was in a very ancient unholy church, He arrived late, by coincidence just at the end of the football/soccer match. He was completely drunk 😊, the concert went terrible and it was also costly. I was very young, I still study his compositions.
Such beautiful singing and music doesn't warrant petty arguments over who is best , quite futile to compare , just go and listen to your preferred choice if this isn't good enough .
A very hauntingly beautiful song.. Jacqui's voice at it's finest.
It makes me sad to look back especially with Bert and John both now deceased but this is a lovely song and arrangement. The harmonies of Jacqui and Bert were a perfect match. What a great combination of talents Pentangle were and their unique music will always sound magical to me.
Take a listen to Pierre Le Bras or Old Picker on UA-cam. Same dude. He's Pierre you know, from France.
Possano riposare nella Pace del Buon Dio 🧡
The harmonies are actually from John and Jacqui, not Bert.
Pentangle arrangements were utterly sublime.
usually ... but the "Reflections" album had some major problems
Their poorest album though still had a few good tracks. An American feel to it. I believe that John and Bert were being bold boys at the time and there was a lot of disharmony, metaphorically at any rate, in the recording studio.

@@Trombonology Well said, I couldn't agree with you more. Reflection was a great LP.
@@7777Scion Well worth it for my favourite side.
The most beautiful female voice ever!
Esleyu truly a beautiful instrument
Listen to Sandy Denny a greater voice.
John Collum Not really, most of the time Denny leaves me cold. Her work with Fairport is amazing, but truth be told Pentangle is far and away a more accomplished act, followed closely by Steeleye Span.
@@gamers7800 in your opinion
Jack Simpson... yes of course, in my opinion.
The wisdom and power of "less is more". Utterly majestic.
Very nicely said.
I agree. But there’s a lot going on with the instruments. They just don’t overdo it.
Martin Hugh Henley truly a Marvelous concoffany... nature provides
I loved this band when i was in my early teens. But now i listen to them more than ever before. This music will never die.
This song and Willy of Winsbury are my fave songs of the Pentangle. Brilliant work.
Same! I also really like ‘Let No Man Steal Your Thyme’ the holy trinity for me 🙏
I must have played this song 500 times, since discoving it 50 years too late. Simple, yet stunning. Jackie's voice is purely perfect, the guitars are phenomenal and THAT bass!?! On to another 500 listens.
Danny Thompson's bass is incredibly powerful
Seriously, he's so good.
It really sings out
Stunning sound.
Huge influence on their music.
Each member of the band was so accomplished, ridiculously so and so for them to all play in the same band is simply amazing.. Those were the days .
Jacqui has a voice that's once in a generation & I love her for it.
Can’t help but cry listening to this beauty
Beautiful song for a lost age and lost people
How could i miss such a band until now....? Lucky i did find it :-)
Me too. This is magically epic.
Listen to Fairport Convention. And Sandy Denny's solo work. More beautiful U.K. folk, folk/rock.
L. Arthur thanks man. Ustedes los ingleses tienen el mejor folk!
@@lynnarthur1411 Sandy Denny is really cool to discover.
What superb film quality. I always enjoyed watching their frequent TV appearances of that era. A really talented group - with the great voice of JM to the fore.
What an absolutely gorgeous song.
Their voices are beautiful and harmonious! ♥
Wonderful! Real Musicians who are masters of their craft!
Oh my god, how deep and how beautiful
Criminally under appreciated band
Agreed !
Absolutely.
greg.i time will be judge. This is magic like an beatles level
I agree 😼
oh man she was so beautiful and her voice ...and bert jansch...a genius ! very very high level !
Here are the lyrics if anyone is curious...
Just like the songbird, deep in the forest
I sing praises but you never hear
And deep in my body my song is silent
But contented at times when you're near
Please listen to me and I will tell thee
All those words that have never been said
They shout inside me but then they cower
Behind weakness that's ruling my head
I dearly love thee and not one other
With a sweetness that lies in my breast
'Tis you that made me but God forbade me
To uncover my heart to love's test
No love is sorrow and now I'm happy
To have thee in this world for my love
And now you must know my soul is for thee
That's why this life is my soaring dove
That's why this life is my soaring dove
Thank you.. much appreciated
Thanks for taking the time , Pentangle are wonderful
*_Just so lovely ..._*
Thank You!
Great many thanks
A whole heap of awesomeness. Love this performance.
I love this song. I'm sure this is what Mr Blackbird (the local friendly bird) chirps quietly to himself in the Wisteria at this time of year (November). Now to play it again....
Truly one of the best songs ever written... The genius Bert Jansch...
My god that's good.
Pure and lovely.
This song is so addicting. I can listen to it on repeat.
my godness what charming music
Complessi del genere non esistono più. Bravi e grazie del piacere che mi date dopo 55 anni.
Legends. Once heard, never forgotten.
Great to see the era depicted by the audience. That was me at some point in distant memory.
Yes long ago and I still feel the same ...
The sound of these Islands
Well above the human creative mind, absolutely one of a kind 🤗

Gentle tears

mushrooms, a field, a tribe of hippies, and this song. It needs to happen.

So many memories of what can only be described as the happiest times of my life. Pentangle. Sublime.
Magical.

I cry so beautiful it is
Totally love this band.They remind me of Jesus Fellowship people hahaha.All their songs are a tribute to the late Noel Stanton.Wish it could be the 70's/80's again.
Perfect. Danny Thompson!!!!!!!!!!
Jacqui Mcshee's voice was as singularly & hauntingly majestic and consummate as Judy Collins. One may discover a half a dozen such voices in a lifetime.😊
Finally got around to checking out all six!
Lovely. 👍🥰
And wasnt expecting the wailing slide guitar solo... 😯
Immortal music.
Thank you. :-D
A fine recording
MEMORIES WOW ALL CAME BACK ,,,

Like Keats. I truly believe their music will go on forever.
Something beautiful..

Bert joins the 'Green jackets' LOL! Love this!
la cantante parece sacada de un códice medieval, tiene ese tipo de cara
Simple and true.
Danny Thompson, bit of a dish in his day.....:)
🌹🎼♥️
Her vocals are perfection. im coming from a producer direction

An England lost, a myth.
Shaun Taylor truly
Top, top.... Nothing than superlatifs for this...

Jacqui Mcshee
Sandy Denny The 3 Queens of Folk
Judy Dyble
Good night nothing else matters now
The perfect postcoital music

Jammie .....
Guy singing gives me ian anderson vibes

It is good!
Can this be re-created somehow?
We will all pass but yes they gave us something to remember
Bearded Bert! A 'turnip' for the books... lol!
Take a little Frisson. You deserve it.
Before Celtic Woman there was this. This is better.
So annoying how they took hunting song off UA-cam
