For this week’s pandemic earworm, I’m going way, way back into my youth, when Pentangle just knocked me out. “Trees They Do Grow High” is my go-to Pentangle song, with the guitar brilliance of Bert Jansch and John Renbourn. That pure, gorgeous voice is Jacqui McShee.
I don't care that the storyline is about a deeply patriarchal society in which women have no agency. It dates back to the 17th Century and probably beyond. I just love the music.
Dunno about you, but I'm cranking the volume up.
