	Faro Annie New - LP - MS 2082 Sealed 1972 US original; Possibly a white label promo with the promotional one-sheet under shrink on back cover. "Pentangle singer/guitarist John Renbourn often takes a folk-rock approach, and often investigates American folk songs, on Faro Annie, beginning with the traditional "White House Blues," a song about the 1901 assassination of President William McKinley. "Buffalo Skinners" is a song associated with Woody Guthrie that Renbourn gives an unusually calm treatment to, adding for the first but not the last time a background sitar part. "Kokomo Blues" is the first overtly folk-rock track, finding Renbourn joined by the Pentangle rhythm section of bassist Danny Thompson and drummer Terry Cox. The first song with a distinctly British derivation is "Willy O'Winsbury," but before long Renbourn is evoking Robert Johnson on "Come on in My Kitchen." That Delta blues is followed by "Country Blues," and then the original instrumental title tune. Throughout, Renbourn and his cohorts explore the various folk styles with delicacy and restraint; that's the British element coming through, and it gives an elegance to the material."

	John Renbourn New - LP - 2RS 6482 Sealed 1973 2LP White Label Promo Housed In A Gatefold Jacket. Pristine Copy. “John Renbourn's Famous Phrase Was That "I Started Out Trying To Play Like Big Bill Broonzy, And I'm Still Trying." On This Early Outing, The First To Appear Under His Own Name, You Can, Perhaps, Detect Some Of The Influence On Traditional Blues Like "John Henry" And "Candy Man." But As A Player, Renbourn Had Already Very Much Developed Into His Own Man, Imaginative And Complete In Technique — Listen To The Bonus Instrumental Take Of "Wildest Pig In Captivity" To Hear His Very Assured Brilliance. Also In Evidence Is His Love Of Early Music, Such As "Song," Whose Lyrics Come From A John Donne Poem, Or His Own "Plainsong." He'd Already Met Up With Fellow Guitar Player Bert Jansch, With Whom He'd Record And Form Pentangle, And Together They Wrote "Noah And Rabbit." While Hardly The Greatest Singer, There's An Appealingly Earnest Quality To His Voice, Although He Sounds A Little Strained On A Cover Of The Folk Classic "Blues Run The Game" (Another Bonus Cut On The Reissue). As Debuts Go, You'd Be Hard Pressed To Find Anything Much Better In The Folk Cauldron That Was London In The Mid-'60s. The Genesis Of A Master.” All Music Guide - Chris Nickson. more

	John Renbourn's Ship Of Fools Used - LP - FF 466 1988 Original Pressed On Pure Virgin Vinyl. Appears Glossy, Unplayed. “In Addition To Being Called Ship Of Fools, This Album Is Credited To John Renbourn's Ship Of Fools, Signaling That It Is Not A Renbourn Solo Album, But Rather A Group Effort. Previously, Renbourn Has Used The Credit "The John Renbourn Group," But Since The Personnel Is Different, He Seems To Have Opted For A New Moniker. The Chief Difference Is That, In This Case, The Female Singer Is Not His Old Pentangle Partner Jacqui Mcshee But Rather Maggie Boyle, Who Takes Lead Vocals On Four Of The Ten Tracks, In Addition To Playing Flute. Tony Roberts Plays Wind Instruments, As He Did In The John Renbourn Group, With Scott Breadman, Producer Mitch Greenhill, And Michael Tempo Adding Various Percussion Instruments. Renbourn Is Joined On The Guitar By Steve Tilston, Who Also Adds Mandolin. The Music Is Stately Traditional British Folk In Renbourn's Familiar Manner, And The Mixture Is Also Familiar, With "Cobbler's Jig/Maltese Brawls" The Instrumental And The Album Concluding With An A Cappella Hymn, "Travellers' Prayer." The Album Is Thus A Worthy Successor To The John Renbourn Group Albums A Maid In Bedlam And The Enchanted Garden.” William Ruhlmann, AMG. more

	Live In America Used - LP - FC 27103 1981 2LP Original Featuring The Wonderful Voice Of Jacquie McShee Plus Tony Roberts, Flute, Krumhorn, Northumberland Small Pipes And Harmony Vocals; John Molineux, Dulcimer, Mandolin, Fiddle And Harmony Vocals; Keshav Sathe, Tabla. Both LPs Appear Unplayed. “Originally A Two-LP Set, This 70-Minute Concert CD Recorded On April 16, 1981 In San Francisco Features The Core Of The Band That Appeared On The Enchanted Garden -- Jacqui Mcshee On Vocals, Tony Roberts On Flute, Krumhorn, And Pipes, John Molineaux On Dulcimer, Violin, And Mandolin, And Keshav Sathe Playing The Tabla. The Repertory Is Rooted, Of Course, In English Folk Music, Including "The Trees They Grow High," A Beautiful A Cappella Number ("Ye Mariners All"), And "John Barleycorn Is Dead." Renbourn's Playing Is Showcased Throughout, Most Notably On "English Dance," A Dazzling 3½-Minute Guitar Solo; "Breton Dance," By Contrast, Is A Vehicle For The Entire Band. Mcshee's Crystalline Vocals Hold Much Of The Spotlight, And The Disc Is Worth Owning Just For Her Performance, Her Presence Making This As Valuable As Any Pentangle Release.” Bruce Eder, AMG. more

	Sir John Alot Of Merrie Englandes Musyk Thyng & Ye Grene Knyghte Used Import - RS 6344 1975 Canadian Reissue Pressing, Still In Shrink. Warner Logo In Rim Text. Moderate Shrink Tear. "An Instrumental Album (Originally Called Sir John Alot Of Merrie England) Featuring John Renbourn With His Pentangle Bandmate Terry Cox On Percussion And Ray Warleigh On Flute. Originally Released In England In 1968, The Same Year That Pentangle Started To Record, Sir John Alot Was Steeped Largely In English Folk Music. Highlights Include "The Trees They Do Grow High" (Aka "Long A-growing"), Solo Guitar Miniatures Such As "Lady Goes To Church," The Epic "Morgana," With Its Sharply Nuanced Tempo And Timbre Changes, And The Sprightly "My Dear Boy." Some Parts Of This Album Are Surprisingly Contemporary Sounding, Such As The Bluesy "Transformation," Which Sounds Like "What'd I Say" Transposed For Acoustic Guitar And African Drums; "White Fishes," Which Veers Dangerously Close To Quoting George Gershwin's "It Ain't Necessarily So" And Rodgers & Hammerstein's "My Favorite Things"; And "Sweet Potato," Which Sounds Like A Folk-rock Song Without Words, Even As Renbourn Quotes "Satisfaction" At One Point."

	The Lady And The Unicorn Used - LP - LL-0087 1986 Reissue. Light Ring Wear. "Renbourn's Last Solo Album For The Next Six Years Overlaps With His Pentangle Work, Featuring Terry Cox Playing Hand Drums And Glockenspiel, With Future John Renbourn Band Member Tony Roberts And Violinist Dave Swarbrick. The Repertory Consists Of Medieval And Early Classical Pieces, Interspersed With The Expected Folk Material -- Keyboard Works From The Fitzwilliam Virginal Book (Transcribed For Guitar) Stand Alongside Traditional Tunes Such As "Scarborough Fair," Which Turns Up As Part Of An 11-minute Track That Also Incorporates "My Johnny Was A Shoemaker," With Swarbrick At The Top Of His Form On Violin. The Album Is Entirely Instrumental, But As With Other Renbourn Releases, One Hardly Misses The Vocals." Bruce Eder, AMG more
