This 14 LP boxset includes of bonus material featuring 22 recordings which are previously unreleased on vinyl.

Says McShee, “I am honoured to see our work as Pentangle celebrated with this special vinyl boxset release. The collection represents a journey through a significant chapter in music history – one in which we sought to experiment and explore each other’s talents and just enjoy making music together.

“Each song and album hold a special place in my heart, not only for the music itself but for the incredible memories and experiences that we shared as a band. I hope this release brings listeners, both old and new, the same joy and connection that we felt while creating this music together. 

“To all our fans who have supported our music over the years, thank you. You are keeping the Pentangle legacy alive, and I hope this boxset serves as a celebration of all that we accomplished together”.

The set was originally released on CD in 2017. For this vinyl edition, each album is presented in a gatefold sleeve replicating the original artwork, housed in an rigid slipcase box alongside an special gatefold holding a 64-page book of rare images and extensive sleeve-notes, including a Q&A culled from past interviews by Uncut contributor Mick Houghton with Jansch, Renbourn and McShee, essays about each album, a chronology and track-by-track details.
