    Thank God The Pentangle did so many TV appearances. I'm sure no-one then even thought of where the band might be in 5 years, but having this visual record of their initial career 50 years after the fact really is tremendous. Ironically, their softer, jazz-inflected acoustic style probably made them relatively straightforward to record for, and appropriately present on, television - as opposed to contemporaries like The Jimi Hendrix Experience or Led Zeppelin (whose sheer volume, so essential to their presentation, was completely unable to be represented via the average 8 or 10 inch television speaker).

    Loved the Pentangle since I was a wee laddie. The Pentangle and The Incredible String Band were the best two folk bands from the UK during the 1960s.

      Not wrong Matty. There was of course a degree of overlap/ common influence too.

    I discovered this number, Blues in Time, when I bought the double vinyl album, Sweet Child in about 1974.
    I had only heard the title track to the album, played on our local FM Adult Contemporary radio station, Portland Oregon. I raced to the local record store to pick up the copy of the double album. One vinyl disc is all studio recording, and the other vinyl disc is all live.
    It wasn't until just a couple years ago I bought the same album as a double CD disc, with extra bonus tracks. It has the same Blues in Time number performed twice, and each recording varies a little.
    So hearing this great BBC recording for the first time and as a visual live performance, and very familiar with listening to this track repeatedly for over 50 years, this was quite an experience, to watch the group up close playing it live.
    I want to thank the provider here for releasing this to RUclips, apparently just within the past two hours.
    I had the great fortune of seeing the two founding members, Bert Jansch and John Renbourn play live, separately in Portland Oregon over recent years, just shortly prior before the passing of both of them.
    At Bert's solo concert, I took a few guy friends, and a lady friend of mine since elementary gradeschool. I walked up to the stage at the end, and asked a woman that I assumed was a roadie rounding up the equipment to be put away, as everyone else in the theater had left.
    I brought my Sweet Child album cover that I purchased the records within from 1974, and ask her if Bert would come back out to autograph it.
    She said that she'd go back and ask him. Just then my lady friend came back and told me, Mark he's not going to come back out, it's time to leave.
    I said just a minute, this lady said she'd asked him to come out. So I ask again, do you mind if I ask, are you sure that Bert will come back out? She said yes I'm sure, because I'm going to go back and ask him now, he's my husband.
    I was shocked and had to thank her and tell her I was honored, that I didn't know I was going to meet Bert's wife before I met him.
    In a few moments he walked out, I shook his hand and told him when I first heard the Sweet Child album and his guitar playing with the entire group when I purchased this album, it changed my life, as a twenty-year-old back in 1974. His style influenced me to become self taught in playing some blues guitar lines.
    He said that his favourite banjo player in the world resides here in Portland Oregon. Then he signed his name under his photo of the four members pictured when opening across the large fold-out album cover image of the group.
    I thanked Bert and said it was really an honor to meet him.
    A few months later while driving in my car one night, I looked up some of their music to play, channeled from my cellphone through my car stereo. I saw many people's comments mentioning that he had passed away. I was saddened but glad that I met him within the last year that he was still living.

    I saw Pentangle the year of this broadcast 1971 and they performed a perfect show with John even bringing his Sitar along. This was in Washington DC and I can’t remember how I got backstage but I briefly met the entire Band and though tired after their amazingly long performance they were very gracious. I met my hero Danny Thompson who’s handshake is as strong as you think it might be. Very entertaining fellow who I remember had a small cut he acquired during his lengthy Bass solo on the lovely Victoria. A unforgettable evening of masterful musicians doing their thing that I will certainly never forget.

      DT is not a bad hero to have. I emailed him after seeing him in Edinburgh playing in a Incredible String Band celebratory concert . He was naturally brilliant.
      I was amazed to get a reply that was generous, humble and beautifully expressive - just like his music I guess.
