Pentangle / Sweet Child / John Donne Song

June 20, 2020 3:03 PM

Who sang the lead on the track John Donne Song, on the Album Sweet Child by Pentangle from 1968?

I think the possibilities are John Rebourn / Bert Jansch / Terry Cox

I don't think it is Bert Jansch - doesn't sound like him.

And it doesn't sound that much like John Renbourn, but it could be, maybe.

Which leaves Terry Cox, and I don't know his voice.

Best answer: If you listen to the live version it looks like they're saying "And now a song from John" so I suspect it's him.

Best answer: Yes, it's Renbourn. He also did it on his first solo album, in 1965.
