I don't know if you are still a member here but I am new to this site and so to find someone who appreciates just how good Wishbone Ash were is a rare joy.
"Argus" was their best album and should be in any guitarists top ten. Andy Powell is still touring as Wishbone Ash as only he held the rights to use the name but he is the only original band member in his line up but they are excellent and well worth seeing. Joe Crabtree on drums, Bob Skeat on bass and Manni Maninen a Finnish guitarist on the other guitar. They will be in London early in the New Year.

They only had one "radio hit" that I can remember but geez did they ever play some good stuff. Alot of 2 part harmonies on guitars and if you get to, check out the bass riff at the break in "Sometime World"
