Pentangle (band) Pentangle (band) Pentangle (or The Pentangle) are a British folk-jazz band with an eclectic mix of folk, jazz, blues and folk rock influences. The original band was active in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and a later version has been active since the early 1980s. The original line-up, which was unchanged throughout the band's first incarnation (1967–1973), was: Jacqui McShee, vocals; John Renbourn, vocals and guitar; Bert Jansch, vocals and guitar; Danny Thompson, double bass; and Terry Cox, drums. The name "Pentangle" was chosen to represent the five members of the band, and is also the device on Sir
Pentangle (band) on GJS. Their concert at Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, was recorded and released by Park Records under the title "At the Little Theatre". The 2011 album "Live In Concert", released on GJS Records features several of their best performances over the years between 1997 and 2011. The "new" 2002 Jacqui McShee's Pentangle line-up continued to play regularly in Great Britain in most years from 2002 through the present, as of 2018. Whilst the new Pentangle incarnations and personnel changes took the band in various musical directions, interest in the original Pentangle line-up continued, with at least nineteen compilation albums being released
