There are four female English voices of the 60's and 70's which are classic, unique and should never, ever be forgotten. Those are: Jacqui McShee, Maddy Prior, Sandy Denny, and Annie Haslam. Pentangle was wonderful and even Jacqui McShee's Pentangle in the 80's was excellent. No one has ever sounded like Pentangle again - before them or since. They mixed jazz and folk and the musicianship was unique and still unmatched. It had a soul and a heart, more than can be said for a lot of music today.

Wonderful band. Saw them at the Albert Hall in the 1960s (round about Basket of Light time) and saw Jacqui sing locally some years back. She is still an excellent singer. The musicianship is so clever and the arrangements just layer music on top of music so each verse of most songs are differently backed. One of those things I grew up on but each one is a fine musician and the rhythm section is amazing

"A woman is a branchy tree And man's a clinging vine And from her branches carelessly He'll take what he can find" I think it's obvious that she is telling other women to not waste their time and energy on men who steal the best years of their life. I don't think there's anything in the lyrics about the bravery of men in war, or waiting for them. Not sure where you're getting that, to be honest. "For when your thyme is past and gone He'll care no more for you And in the place your thyme was waste We'll spread all o'er with rue" When you're old and no longer beautiful, he won't want you anymore. And you'll be full of regret.

I may be the only person to ever find this interesting, but as I listened to the bass intro to this I was reminded of the beginning of Lonely Woman by Ornette Coleman (with Charlie Haden on bass). I think there is more than a passing resemblance in the styles of Danny Thompson and Charlie (although Danny plays with a bow here). Also, I checked, and the beginning notes and the keys of both songs are the same, and the tempos are pretty close too. One of those coincidences I live for.

Thyme stands both for 'hope' and 'virginity' in this folk song, and, of course, the song is a warning to innocent young maids not to let an unsuitable man steal your virginity, your hope and, of course, your time, as this song is a play on the words thyme and time. And of course if you do let it happen the man in question will spread your 'garden' (!) with 'rue' which is of course means both a bitter herb and 'regret'. If only I'd listened to this ancient and wise advice myself!
