Pentangle is a name that strikes a chord - a name that came to dominate the music scene of the late sixties and early seventies. Two decades later, McShee is still creating a sound that is genuinely original, this time through her own project, Jaqui McShee’s Pentangle. The band have carried their spirit of adventure forward to the live stage, the results of which can be seen and heard on this their latest DVD release, In Concert At The Little Theatre. Material from 1998’s Passe Avant is allowed even greater freedom to grow and develop away from the studio setting, the band thriving on the improvisational nature of their playing. They also visit some of the many high points of their history - turning a new eye to such classics as Cruel Sister, The Wife of Usher’s Well, Lovely Joan as well as the traditional standards like She Moved Through The Fair. The combination of jazz and folk music has never sounded so natural, the two great examples of the people’s music meeting in one thrilling whole.
