Pentangle - Light Flight (Songs From The Two Brewers, 8th May 1970)

[@Squarole2331]

A moment in time that will never be repeated. Sublime.

[@matycee]

um... just like every single other moment you mean?

[@sunkintree]

@@matycee I see that poetry is completely lost on you

[@levitation25]

Ethereal. The music of angels and fairies.

[@davidpike1487]

Pure class! Real Musicians playing real music....

[@snowfiresunwind]

Pentangle were a unique band. A 'superstar' band that actually worked - no massive egos from any member to tear it all apart. PS John Renbourn took to the electric guitar very convincingly unlike some of the acoustic folkies of the period. The way he approached electric guitar reminds me very much of Lee Underwood's playing for Tim Buckley.

[@panstolen]

amazing. this was recorded at the same day but exactly 17 years before I was born. And yet I am a huge fan. Met pentangle on soulseek, while looking for folk songs when I was about 16 and obsesed with all things celtic (then folk derived from there). First song I listened to was scarborough fair. Now 20 years later it is still favorite band and my safe space, I can say anything in pentangle songs. I saw when the first videos were upload to youtube, at that time even lyrics were hard to come by. Now I am delighted by every live.

[@josefinagarza241]

I love Celtic music,started listening to Scottish Moors, then onward,discovered all these greats❤

[@FenceThis]

there’s nothing Celtic about this

[@StarfieldRailway]

My God. How incredible is this?

[@spiritofsilver2054]

Seeing Jacqui McShee’s Pentangle on Tuesday - absolutely cannot wait!!!!!!!!! Have loved them for as long as I could appreciate music ❤

[@peterglynn2128]

Pentangle. Great Band.

[@MrMjp58]

Vintage Pentangle in HD! Their best number, for me. I wish they’d done more in the same vein. Jaqui’s exquiste voice!!

[@jorgegonzalez-larramendi5491]

Reflexion....

[@kingrobert1st]

Memories of my youth came flooding back! I remember buying this exquisite album and cherishing it.

[@mlester3001]

Pentangle was contemporary with my teen years but I was barely aware of them. Now in my seventies, I truly enjoy their music.

[@Fuzzbrain61]

What a great live clip. Lovely tune in an unusual time signature.

[@sato2097]

This is such a good song.

[@NeilBrown-rz5ll]

A time when music was music,no crap just pure music…

[@simoncardie9371]

Jesus, that voice. A real songbird.

[@blahblahoink]

Perfection. And live too. Beat that.

[@simoncardie9371]

Jethro Tull were also perfect live. Not so anymore.

[@mattychapati]

Legendary band 🔥 🔥 🔥 Brings back many memories of yesteryear ✌🏼 ❤️ 🎶

[@josephfalco3141]

This transcends music to become magic.

[@shaunmcgee4204]

Outstanding musicians and THAT perfect voice. My god, it doesn’t get, couldn’t get, any better than that. They captured lightning in a bottle. ✌🏻💜☀️

[@simoncardie9371]

I don't know which is the best, the guitars, that voice! or that bass! Actually, all of it.

[@MikeFowlerguitars]

People say to me, "Oh you like Pentangle, you must like [ insert random folk artist]. " Me: Er, no.

[@mothwings99]

They’re a genre in themselves sometimes

Danny Thompson is so propulsive on Bass!

[@laurencethenewlyricist167]

Había dos hermanas muy buenas no recuerdo su nombre maccarry o algo así a este folk le decíamos de mesa camilla

[@wailin1967]

they actually do - it's just not thrust in your face. Some really beautiful folk, rock, jazz, psych sounds around at the moment, you just need to keep your sensors open !

[@argotero6545]

Always is been my favor folk English band. (5/4 +7/4) amazing bass player and drummer ❤

[@9750939]

And yet you hardly notice the odd time signature because it flows so easily.

[@DjNikGnashers]

Loving these new remastered uploads, the quality is amazing, thank you so much.

[@debs4mysweetbaby]

Magnificent Pentangle!!💜

[@Giselle62]

I love hearing every plink-plonk when i listen to music; they are therefore, my favorite band.

[@Giselle62]

had a bit of a problem with shoe gaze for that reason.

[@laurencethenewlyricist167]

Nothing like this today!

[@davestonehill6177]

Blown away by this band!

[@mariekatherine5238]

Haven’t heard this song in decades, but I’m transported to living on base in San Diego, to the back stairs of our overcrowded house. Is dance there with my sister, Monica, R.I.P. Good times!

[@professorpopkiss]

Honey to my ears.

[@michabienkowski8254]

Beatiful ❤

[@sophiao4737]

truly magical ♥

[@laurencethenewlyricist167]

I saw Pentangle around that time at the Albert Hall - I was about 17. It seems like another universe, now! What amuses me about this video is the terribly serious expressions of the audience - they all look as though they were attending a funeral lol.

[@bicycleboy66]

I was there also a great concert as I remember 😊

[@maxwellfan55]

They were serious...about the music. Nowt wrong with that, known as appreciation of something amazing. Was just like that then.

[@jaediccacairns4754]

It’s a song whose strength manifests itself when the audience join in. The Scot’s duo The Corries used to close with it and the you tube of the sound as the audience join is is emotionally powerful and transports the song to another place. Why it hasn’t been taken up by a football crowd like You’ll never walk alone is a puzzlement to me.

[@youarethecreator1]

What a beauty of a voice. I bet the girls from Stereolab were influenced.

[@gogoyubari366]

Beautiful girl and beautiful music!

[@verwurster6022]

Love this Sound so much. The best way make my Soul happy in a "Different" World, The Sound from a vinyl record is incredible, from a CD rather bad, not lively. Mit Gras Genus wird es noch viel potenzialer. Love from Germany.

[@jonhay3141]

Theme to the BBC series Take Three Girls.

[@AHappyFlower]

I saw them live in the 1980s, and Bert a few years later. Wonderful, wonderful band.

[@chipstern1]

Glorious

[@Mr223P]

They had a wonderful melting pot of folk and jazz (certainly in the rhythm section of Cox and Thompson) and the lighter end of rock to these ears at least. And they made those odd time signatures sound so natural and flowing, fantastic band….

[@user-ze3nl2kc2f]

Top tune !!

[@marystele1197]

Pure Class ❤❤❤

[@RossDear-zm4nj]

Great sound loved it

[@fossie32]

Was this a theme to a tv series?

[@IN_THIS_DAY_AND_AGE]

Yes, Take Three Girls.

[@petdoe8938]

There are a few episodes on the net , take three girls,, would love the full set if anyone has them ,thank you

[@DaveysLoft-jv7fz]

Awesome. :-)

[@wolfgangpeter7808]

Great playing!

[@mikepxg6406]

Beutiful

[@RobKandell]

How did this music not cross the pond back in the day? They are every bit the equal of any musical act of this genre coming out of the US or Canada, and that includes the top acts like Gordon Lightfoot, John Denver, or James Taylor. Better late than never, I guess.

[@modrew]

Pentangle's music *did* cross the pond, from the UK to the US, back in the day. However, in the US, their music reached, and was appreciated, only by niche or esoteric circles.

[@anneominous7172]

I find myself listening to this and waiting for the Take Five symbols to come in 😅

[@rickritacca3258]

Loved it!

So bad ass

[@hni7458]

Ppl never mention it, but that Thompson bass - Jezzz.

[@christianlacheze3323]

The extraordinary Danny Thompson. His work with Nick Drake was incredible too.

[@hni7458]

@@christianlacheze3323 Indeed; I, a Scandinavian, made a pilgrimage to Tanworth-in-Arden once and to the churchyard, a fantastic place.

[@danbenson2445]

I always liked their version of Willy o winsbury but never thought of them as top tier musicians compared to the likes of Jethro Tull and others from the era. Then this randomly pops up as a suggestion and I find myself in a whole new world.

[@raymondkb2nzo788]

So underrated

[@FuzzyDancingBear]

I miss you Mia

[@nityaputrini]

yes.

[@Brokout]

Sounds extremely difficult to sing and Jacquie absolutely nails it

[@benjaminlevy9199]

[@pinball1970]

Back when music required some investment, intelligence to write, sing, play and appreciate.

[@davids4003]

I hear what you're saying and if applied to modern pop music, you would be mostly correct. However, there are many indie and underground artists who possess those qualities. They just don't get any air time because the music industry is not about music- it's about making money.

[@pinball1970]

@@davids4003 Agree with you sir. There are always talented kids out there. My philosophy was learn all you can and get out there. Get good. Not sure how kids do it these days. All on line?

[@simoncardie9371]

It is still out there, same as it was then. Also the same, as in it's not aimed at the masses. Proper music, rather than the musical equivalent of McDonald', as in bland, boring and directed at people who don't care about what they're listening to. This is brilliant.

[@kacperfornal5998]

@pinball1979 please listen to the band king gizzard & the lizard wizard and write me what you think
