English guitarist and singer, leading figure in the British folk revival, founding member of Pentangle, known for fingerpicking and blending blues, medieval and early music influences.

Born 8 August 1944; died 26 March 2015. Active from the early 1960s until his death. Co-founded the group Pentangle with Bert Jansch.

Reviews highlight Renbourn's virtuoso fingerpicking, classical influence and role in the British folk revival. One review discusses his 1965 self-titled debut in detail. A second review (Faro Annie) on DeBaser is incomplete. Overall reception is positive toward his musicianship.

For:Fans of British folk, acoustic guitarists, listeners of the 1960s folk revival

 A virtuoso guitarist with the purest and most crystalline class as well as a refined and cultured touch, also a result of his classical guitar studies, he recorded this album in 1965, including pieces written by himself alongside classics of British tradition, as was the custom among many folk musicians of the era ("Winter Is Gone", "Beth’s Blues" or "Candy Man" being examples).
