::: Superb quality recording. Check the samples for substantiation & prognostication.
::: Warts: None noticed but for a tiny splice about 2 minutes into "Lucky Black Cat".
::: A year from whence, at least to date, few recordings circulate. Great songs & standout lead guitar from Rod Clements (of Lindisfarne). Not to be missed.

CoolSonics 094 ::: Another one for Bert, and for Loren , too! Thanks to the original taper & trader! ::: Corrections welcome ::: The second time around for Pentangle at The Galerie, they had also appeared there in 1987. While we get only part of their evening set, the quality is great, the songs are well selected & the mood is upbeat. Clements is going for it. Top flight... Enjoy!
More recordings on the way, making up for years of slow netspeed. Kudos to Zongo for life support, Lochner for mikes & much more, & to Fast Freddie for runnin' Video Dick's Record Emporium with the bathroom office full of tape decks. Thanks to Hanwaker (few among us can keep his pace) for over 30 years of trading & friendship. Mountains of gratitude to Davmar, D.White, Sanchez, Elliot, The Florida Kid, Kloiber, Zingg, JTW, Bershaw, Boston Gold, Weeks, Dixon, Moore, Gough & SO many more for all that collecting & sharing... Royal thanks to The Man In The Palace, Doc Tinker, Brinkhoffs, Barely Eatin', Reel Master Gaule, Parrish & all the traders who housed me thru my music acquisition & travel years. Hats off to Brother Kent, Uncle Jake, Little Queenie (& her neighbor Frank) & his honor Ptomaine Thomas. Glasses raised to Byron for musical horizon expansion & much obliged to J & Thurston for keepin' my concert fires burnin' since my continental shift. Thanks to the Mods for keepin' DIME alive. Enjoy, share, give, spread peace. Yers truly, Knees
