    does anybody else here listen to this wonderful, wonderful band? earlier tonite I downloaded Basket of Light and their 1985 reunion album Open the Door, and christ almighty, are they good! if i hadn't also gotten Rejoicing In The Hands tonite I'm sure i'd be listening to the Pentangles for ages. :p

    I like Open the Door the most out of the two of them, personally.

    I thought they are just called the Pentangle but they're great indeed! One of my favourite folk stuff ever. Basket of light, Pentangle and Sweet child are their albums I listen mostly to.
