Tapestry of Delights:
Forming in 1967, they were something of a folk-rock 'supergroup'. Bert Jansch and John Renbourn were already highly-regarded soloists, Thompson had been a jazz sessionman and Cox had played a similar role in the blues world. Both had played in Alexis Korner's Blues Incorporated. Jacqui McShee was a well known figure in traditional folk circles.
Their debut album was noted for fine acoustic interplay between Renbourn and Jansch and contained an effective blend of originals and traditional folk material. The follow-up Sweet Child was a double set, which again included a very varied blend of material including two songs written by jazz bassist Charles Mingus, Haitian Fight Song and Goodbye Pork Pie Hat. Basket Of Light (from their third album) was used as the title track to 'Take Three Girls', a TV drama. Thereafter, they lost their way and seemed to be marking time on their early seventies albums. When the split came in 1972 Jansch and Renbourn continued with their solo careers. Danny Thompson went on to work with John Martyn, Cox did session work for Charles Aznavour, the French singer, and McShee sang for the John Renbourn Band between 1974-81. The original band reformed in 1982 and recorded three further albums in the eighties but that's another story.
