John Renbourn & Jacqui McShee In Concert

i've seen lots of live concerts by Renbourn and many years ago i had the luck of knowing him (and Bert Jansch). some years ago i've seen a fantastic Jacqui's concert in my hometown. obviously i've got all records by Pentangle and the single musicians of the group, including Dave Thompson. this DVD is simply wonderful, but could seem too short (90 minutes about), because a long time fan like me is never tired of this fantastic musicians. it was recorded in Newcastle upon Tyne in 2005, mostly in duo (and sometimes "a cappella") and part in trio, with a second guitarist Clive (his surname slips my mind). the tunes are mostly famous, but in rare versions. everybody should buy this.

McShee and Renbourn reunite for an evening of great singing and stellar guitar playing!

a wonderful, wistful document

I remember them from the 1960's and they were great then as well as now. Better guitar than you will hear anywhere!!

This is a DVD of the current tour show by John & Jacqui, filmed in late 2004 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England (we were fortunate to have them here in Seattle a few nights ago, May 15, 2005). The DVD includes the concert (65 minutes, uninterrupted), a nice segment of John talking to the audience about his early days and influences up to Pentangle (13 minutes), and a one-song bonus track duo with Clive Caroll (3 minutes). Clive also joins in during the concert on the track Kokomo Blues. The sound and video are crisp and clear, and the playing/singing wonderful as ever. The songs are as listed in the summary by Amazon. If you can't see the current tour, this is the next best thing.

Excellent DVD and arrived on time!

Die hohe Musikalität und das jahrzehntelange Aufeinander-Abgestimmtsein ergänzen sich bei Renbourn und McShee nach wie vor hervorragend. Das Schöne bei so einer DVD ist, dass man das filigrane Gitarrenspiel von Renbourn auch optisch genießen kann.Es ist Jahrzehnte her, dass ich mit den beiden in Berlin gesprochen habe...man wird nicht jünger...ich verfolge Pentangle seit 1969.
