The Pentangle was the 1968 debut album of the band Pentangle: Terry Cox, Bert Jansch, Jacqui McShee, John Renbourn and Danny Thompson. It brought together their separate influences of folk, jazz, blues, early music and contemporary songwriting. One of the band's most commercially successful albums, it reached number 21 in the British charts.

Basket Of Light is a music studio album recording by THE PENTANGLE (Prog Folk/Progressive Rock) released in 1969 on cd, lp, vinyl and/or cassette.

The album opener Light Flight has become their signature song. If there is a prog folk masterpiece then it is Basket Of Light. Pentangle proved they could release a progressive, ground-breaking work without keyboards, much studio trickery or even electric instruments. The original Pentangle was active in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The original line-up includes Bert Jansch (vocals & guitar) and John Renbourn (vocals & guitar). 180 gram audiophile vinyl.

Basket of Light is a 1969 album by the folk rock group Pentangle. The album's liner notes state that "Springtime Promises" was written "after a ride on a number 74 bus from Gloucester Road to Greencroft Gardens on an early spring day". Very pleased with this purchase. I have always enjoyed listening to the Pentangle music.
