Pentangle: Finale
Finale: An Evening With Topic Records TXCD824D (2 CD, UK, 7 October 2016) In February 2007 the original members of Pentangle received a
BBC Radio 2 Lifetime Achievement Award
from Sir David Attenborough.
On 29 June 2008, exactly 40 years since the recording of their monumental
live album
Sweet Child
at the Royal Festival Hall, they returned to the very same venue to begin
their first British tour since 1973. Finale was recorded live during the 2008 tour and sees the
original line-up revisit their classic repertoire. The beautifully recorded and
packaged 2 CD set captures the band in a series of scintillating
performances. Bert Jansch supervised the mixing and sequencing and
John Renbourn prepared the album masters before their untimely deaths in 2011
and 2015 respectively.
Produced by Paul Smith; Terry Cox: drums, glockenspiel, vocals;
