The twin guitars of Andy Powell and Laurie Wisefield saw them on this tour in 1974 at Newcastle Odeon. As clear as a bell live as on the album. One of my best-ever concerts. It's well worth a full album listen.
Hi blamhof. Yes, 10th October 1974. I was there. Newcastle Odeon. It was the There's the Rub tour. Disappointed, of course, that Ted had left the band, but Laurie didn't disappoint anyone. It was, indeed, a great gig. One of my best ever, too. I think they opened with Silver Shoes, but perhaps that's a piece of false memory. You're probably already aware, but there's a great video on YT of the band playing this song in about '75 in Cologne on the New England tour. The beauty of the guitar playing never fails to affect me.
Edit: I've just checked on WA Concert Setlist website. The set was as follows: 1. Don't Come Back 2. Silver Shoes 3. Lady Jay 4. The King Will Come 5. Warrior 6. Throw Down the Sword 7. Persephone 8. F.U.B.B. 9. Blowin' Free 10.Time Was Encore: Hometown No Easy Road Where Were You Tomorrow
@@tonyanderton3521 The only other band I saw at the Odeon were Deep Purple, the Hughes and Coverdale incarnation. All the rest back in the day were either The City Hall or those great Friday nights at The Mayfair. Happy days.
Wishbone Ash was founded as a blues rock dual lead guitars group with dynamic bass player and powerful drumming..Argus is the best known album where your 1st reaction came from. In January 1975 in Baltimore I saw them do several cuts from There's the Rub..
First listened to Wishbone Ash back in the 70s but they fell off my radar for ages. You've reminded me again of what a great sound they had. Like many others I think Argus is their most complete album.
Thanks for reacting to this beautiful song, Wishbone are very talented musicians and there are so many more great songs to explore, by way of contrast to Persephone, i think you will enjoy ' Dont come back ' from the same album
The first time I heard and saw Wishbone Ash when the German television program Rockpalast (WDR) aired a full concert. I loved the guitar playing. Seems it has been released on cd and vinyl and such in 2019.
Great Reaction! Have been waiting for some more Wishbone Ash.. Perhaps Nick could arrange a Marathon. Sampling from a variety of their LP's would be cool. My 5 suggestions would be.. "The Pilgrim " "Lady Whiskey" "Blowing Free" "The King Will Come" "Master Of Disguise" ___ Thanks.
One of the best gigs I ever went to in the early 70's was Wishbone Ash supported by Joan Armatrading at the Birmingham Town Hall. They were promoting their classic Argus album, the third of an incredible trio of Wishbone Ash with the original twin guitars of Andy Powell and Ted Turner. These guys were pioneers and inspirations for many great guitarists and guitar bands that followed. Ted had left and been replaced by Laurie Wisefield for this album, and I don't know it well, but it seems to me that the standard didn't drop! Very cool track. Many thanks Nick x2 and Alexia. Argus would probably be a popular full album contender.
This is one of the best Ash songs among many great others and the whole album is inthat vibe, you will love it. And I was so lucky to see them live in 1980 at the wonderful Lorelei Open Air Amphitheatre. Can you imagine a warm August night filled with this beautiful music?😊
British band relocated to east coast, Connecticut and Florida. Martins bass was at its best by far all over the album. New kid Laurie Wisefield was embarrassingly good. Uptons shuffling drum sound was so unique. Plus Eagles producer Bill Szymczmzkc or however it’s spelt. Top album
Hi Guys, This is from my favourite Wishbone Ash album "There's The Rub" and I had 3 tracks written down for a marathon among my list of songs. The other 2 were "Lady Jay" & an instrumental called "F.U.B.B" both tracks again, with those prominent twin lead guitars they are so famous for. So I just crossed this one off. Lol ... I love "Persephone" and the lyrics are wonderful. That final guitar solo I just put the volume up to 11 and .. omg is it sooo good !!!! Just happy you got to hear this. You need to hear it again without any distractions ... and loud !!! Great reaction and I love Wishbone Ash. Great studio albums and a good number of amazing live albums. Thankyou byeee Jim X
You need to listen to their first album self titled. The first side is double guitar straight rock. The second side is that ambient prog rock fantastic album!
Great band. Lex noticed the bass early on. Which was insightful. Although noted for their twin guitar sound, Martin Turners bass was the beating heart of the band. A wonderful player. The album is well worth a listen. The two stand out tracks are Silver Shoes, the opener and the amazing instrumental F.U.B.B.
Wishbone Ash, Renaissance and Caravan shared a common management around this period; Andy Powell of WA guested on the Renaissance track Ashes Are Burning, returning the compliment for John Tout having played keyboards on WA's Argus album. There's perhaps too tight a hold on serving the musical arrangement in many WA tracks; you can set your watch by them - it's in a good way, a crafted fashion, which perhaps inhibits an audience's sense of being carried away by the whole proceedings. Then again, many of their tracks set out to disprove that theory and usually succeed. Try the rest of this album for an impression of the variety of their material. Their most recent studio album was released in early 2020, Coat Of Arms, no less varied.
You guys reacted to Wishbone Ash Sometime World but not any since! I saw them in 1975 and 1989 and got to talk to them in San Diego for 45 minutes and they signed all my albums
Wishbone Ash a top band , that I have been lucky enough to see live on more than one occasion. For me Ash are a mix of blues/Jazz/folk & rock with their very own unique twin guitar sound. Just listen to tracks like Handy, Sorrel, Errors Of My Ways, Throw Down The Sword and Vas Dis to get a feel of the band.
Do more Wishbone Ash, just a great band, still going. They were famous for their twin lead guitars and used this concept so effectively. I have about 14 WA albums, studio and live. A rabbit hole of goodness.
Weirdly enough many years ago I had a girlfriend who actually knew this band personally. That's the limit of my knowledge of the band but I do remember her though!
There's the Rub is my favourite Ash album. Lady Jay, FUBB, ... 6 perfecr guitar driven songs. The Ash are my favourite dual guitar group, followed by Thin Lizzy. When we formed bands in school mid 70s, it was either a la Wishbone Ash or like CCR. And now in january 2024 I will be able to see Andy Powell and the wonderful new line-up of the Ash in Dortmund, Germany again. Wonderful to expierience such amazing music live in this not so wonderful times.
Everything from Argus to Front Page News is good . FUBB is a killer instrumental on this album. And if you played Wishbone Ash , I can imagine the singing with the english accent, you learned at school. But not John Fogerty's accent... there were many "mis-hearings" back then... I always think of Run through the Jungle- 100 millìon Ganz alone😅😅😅😅😅😅 Gruss aus Düsseldorf
On the studio version of the Renaissance song, "Ashes Are Burning" Andy Powell contributed a guitar solo to close out the song. Worth a listen sometime if you haven't heard it. He also guest-starred with Renaissance on a couple of their live concerts
@@thetruthfornow6045 there is some great stuff on ttheir first two albums too. But I think "Argus" was their peak. Musically they went downhill from there.
Late to watching this video. Really loved this track. And this is exactly the kind of music , I am listening right now. I really want to check out this entire album! Great request! As always very entertaining reaction!❤
Argus was voted the number one album of the year by Melody Maker in 1971 - no small feat when we consider the bands around in that time period. Lex would love it too.
You really need to listen to 1972 album "ARGUS" from wishbone ash, "sometime world" is from it, it's their MASTERPIECE!!! it's the obvious place to start properly, or other tracks from that album, the album that 'persephone' is from,does not match up to "ARGUS" so please, if you do a wishbone album, ARGUS is the one🙏👌😊👍
Brilliant album. My first time seeing them on this tour (Manchester Free Trade Hall about 1975(?)). A very high quality album with some great tracks. New England is another great album released later (will ignore Locked In!!). Still touring in their different guises, saw Andy Powell's version recently who were excellent, not got to see Martin Turner's band yet but I am told they are also very good.
Some of the bands that were recommended were of the classic WA era but don't really fit their style that much. I saw many of them live. I'm surprised no one mentioned Barnstorm, Joe Walshs' group post James Gang. First three albums are brilliant! "Barnstorm", "The Smoker you Drink, the Player you Get" & "So What" (not labeled as a Barnstorm album but with all the same musicians plus...) I saw WA twice during the Argus period ( also check out the Pilgrimage album, Vas Dis is great) & Barnstorm a handful of times all around the same time period. Some of the absolute best concerts & favorite memories of the many I've experienced thru the years...
For me and the guys I hung with back in the day, they were a hard rock band with prog like epics, like this cool ballad with the amazing outro. The original band is their classic period and best stuff but when guitarist Martin Turner left, Laurie Wisefield came aboard for more excellent albums, including the song you just reacted to. Their best album is Argus. That entire side of Argus, starting with the King Will Come , is their best side of music as it flows from one song to the next in a timeless display of twin guitar interplay, unreal musicianship and a vibe that permeates the tunes. Incredible album, do the entire thing sometime. Rock On! 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎶
Hi NicknLex, great live band with twin lead guitars, saw them several times in 70's/80's. Seen as you liked this so much ( one of my fav Wishbone Ash tracks ) you need to listen to the awesome live version on Live Dates 2 & the great live video from Cologne in 1976.
Yes the 'Argus' album definitely the best but 'Pilgrmage' which preceded it is also (mostly) top notch-very proggy in terms of time signatures etc, their dual guitar 5/4 patterns prefiguring 80s Crimson...
Well now this is your 2nd WA song, there has to be more! Saw Martin Turner (bassist) a few months ago with his band and he still kills his bass lines at the ripe old age of 75! Their first 5 albums contain many more gems..............
Beautiful song. For yrs everyone I played it for (who hadn't heard it) loved it. "Good tune, who is it"? You two are interesting. I play Bass Nick. Long time....Oh - and can you bring up the volume a little bit? Really needs it.
Maybe not the best song to discover Wishbone Ash. I would like you to do Handy from their first album. It's maybe the first song with a long bass solo-intro.
This IS a great tune-if you have quality speakers.... Your gear does not bring out the drummers work on the ride cymbals.... A sound W.B.A. has long been known for .....

One of the most underrated bands ever. I love their early stuff. Not their later work so much.
Very underrated band. A few of my favorites are Rock 'n Roll Widow, Warrior, the Pilgrim & The King Will Come. Good job guys
Add Handy and Phoenix !

Wishbone are totally original and one the best bands ever
One of My favourite ever Songs.
Keep Rockin'🎸

The Live Dates Album is a must, and I’ve been told it was at one time the best selling live album, seen them live amazing band.
Saw them live in Offenburg Germany June 1976 and they performed this song in their set list. I became a Wishbone Ash fan that night!
Salute to you for reacting to my favourite band.
My favorite band too!!
Wishbone Ash was founded as a blues rock dual lead guitars group with dynamic bass player and powerful drumming..Argus is the best known album where your 1st reaction came from. In January 1975 in Baltimore I saw them do several cuts from There's the Rub..
When wishbone invented twin lead guitars rock music exploded into a new dimensional world…imo the best band ever fan for 54 years…cheers
Martin Turner is a fantastic bass player.
One of my favorite. I try to play a lot of his tracks, so melodic lines and a great singer too. A shame he and Andy are mad at each other.
First listened to Wishbone Ash back in the 70s but they fell off my radar for ages. You've reminded me again of what a great sound they had. Like many others I think Argus is their most complete album.
The whole album is brilliant
I adore Wishbone Ash dear Nick and Lex! Thank you so much xArgus album is the one our friends 😊
Blowin' Free and The King Will Come are their finest work.
Also Throw Down the Sword, Persephone to name two more from many great songs.
Live Dates II version of this is fantastic!
They really set the table for twin lead guitars in rock.
Thanks for reacting to this beautiful song, Wishbone are very talented musicians and there are so many more great songs to explore, by way of contrast to Persephone, i think you will enjoy ' Dont come back ' from the same album
The first time I heard and saw Wishbone Ash when the German television program Rockpalast (WDR) aired a full concert. I loved the guitar playing. Seems it has been released on cd and vinyl and such in 2019.
Love Rockpalast!
I listen to them when i juz 11yrs old 1981... argus album the best
Great Reaction! Have been waiting for some more Wishbone Ash.. Perhaps Nick could arrange a Marathon. Sampling from a variety of their LP's would be cool.
My 5 suggestions would be..
"The Pilgrim "
"Lady Whiskey"
"Blowing Free"
"The King Will Come"
"Master Of Disguise"
___
Thanks.
But, only if you take those songs from the 2 Live Dates albums
I would start with Handy
One of the first albums I bought was 'Argus' by Wishbone Ash; I still listen to it nearly 50 years later! Their album 'New England' is also a belter.
Outward Bound Lorelei Mother of Pearl In All of My Dreams

The last solo is to die for, ive said it before, once or twice, im not kidding ;)
Love this band... so many unique melodic bass and guitar passages.
One of my favorite bands from the 70s. Got to see them twice. Talk about Jamming!
There's The Rub & New England are the best Wishbone Ash albums as far as I am concerned. Laurie Wisefield is amazing.
My first WA concert was on the New England tour it was great.i have seen them many times since and they are always fantastic.
British band relocated to east coast, Connecticut and Florida. Martins bass was at its best by far all over the album. New kid Laurie Wisefield was embarrassingly good. Uptons shuffling drum sound was so unique. Plus Eagles producer Bill Szymczmzkc or however it’s spelt. Top album

Me too!
When I mention Wishbone Ash to people many people ask who?... 'til I play a few licks from The King Will Come... then they say OH! I know that song.
there is a live version of this on this platform and the bass guitar is exaggerated and it adds so much to the song.
You need to listen to their first album self titled. The first side is double guitar straight rock. The second side is that ambient prog rock fantastic album!
On their classic early albums ,the double lead on their most well known hits were done by Andy Powell and Ted Turner

Great song,and album fubb is great to
Weirdly enough many years ago I had a girlfriend who actually knew this band personally. That's the limit of my knowledge of the band but I do remember her though!
This is my 2nd favorite album after Argus..Persephone is awesome and so is Don't Come Back and Lady Jay
Been a long while since I heard this. I am Not as familiar with this album thanks for the request and reaction. 👍👍

also find a live version of Way Of The World
here's the album version, but get the right live version and it's even more powerful

It is more a rock band les ProgRock or something, driven by 2 lead guitars always. And Persephone was my favorite song of this band.
It should really be Argus if you are considering a full album review.
Agree 100%
Argus is great. But if everyone thinks Argus is their only good album then that explains why they are not in Rock n' Roll hall of fame.
@@thetruthfornow6045 there is some great stuff on ttheir first two albums too. But I think "Argus" was their peak. Musically they went downhill from there.

You really need to listen to 1972 album "ARGUS" from wishbone ash, "sometime world" is from it, it's their MASTERPIECE!!! it's the obvious place to start properly, or other tracks from that album, the album that 'persephone' is from,does not match up to "ARGUS" so please, if you do a wishbone album, ARGUS is the one🙏👌😊👍
So many more great WA tracks to go through - recommend Phoenix, The Warrior/Throw Down the Sword, Blowin Free....
PS...ARGUS, is Their masterpiece, from 1972.🎸
If you liked this then have a listen to Lorelei from their album New England
❤lorelei
D0 hope you play more from this album.... One of my favourite albums. And were a great live band to add..
Brilliant album. My first time seeing them on this tour (Manchester Free Trade Hall about 1975(?)). A very high quality album with some great tracks.

Hi guys listen to phoenix on their first album awesome love from England
listen to the early Wishbone Ash stuff, like Argus... they are famous for pioneering twin/duelling lead guitars
I would recommend diving into the album Argus, maybe supplemented by Phoenix from the self titled first album. I think you would enjoy.
Yes this one the best album
Handy off of first album is fantastic. Of course they have many more.
Another great live band back in the 70s!
There's The Rub is a great album by WA,guys-- their best would be 'Argus'. The song Sometime World was from that one. Dive in..T
Some of the bands that were recommended were of the classic WA era but don't really fit their style that much. I saw many of them live. I'm surprised no one mentioned Barnstorm, Joe Walshs' group post James Gang. First three albums are brilliant! "Barnstorm", "The Smoker you Drink, the Player you Get" & "So What" (not labeled as a Barnstorm album but with all the same musicians plus...)

- heading towards the Bright Side instead of Dark Side of the Moon
That was 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Yes the 'Argus' album definitely the best but 'Pilgrmage' which preceded it is also (mostly) top notch-very proggy in terms of time signatures etc, their dual guitar 5/4 patterns prefiguring 80s Crimson...
Original twin guitar attack; big influence in that way on Priest and Maiden
I hear a subtle Haitian Divorce melody.
Well now this is your 2nd WA song, there has to be more! Saw Martin Turner (bassist) a few months ago with his band and he still kills his bass lines at the ripe old age of 75! Their first 5 albums contain many more gems..............
Excellent Band more please
Beautiful song. For yrs everyone I played it for (who hadn't heard it) loved it. "Good tune, who is it"? You two are interesting. I play Bass Nick. Long time....Oh - and can you bring up the volume a little bit? Really needs it.
check out Lady Whiskey
A month ago you reacted to Leaf and Stream by Wishbone Ash. You seem to have forgotten that one.
7:40- stoner-prog
- sounds as the Pink Floyd familiar a Gemini twin band ****
If its an album by Wishbone Ash guys it has to Argus!!!!!!!!!
Ah... if you liked Thin Lizzy you are certainly going to love Wishbone Ash.
É simplesmente viajante!!!
ELP +Dire Straits
You need to remember that many of the ones you listed as influences were actually influenced BY Wishbone Ash.
Wishbone Ash's first five albums are the best, with Ted Turner on guitar playing with Andy Powell. Live Dates is a brilliant album
review JOHN MAYALL Romm to move you will LOVE IT
Maybe not the best song to discover Wishbone Ash. I would like you to do Handy from their first album. It's maybe the first song with a long bass solo-intro.
Lady Jay from the same album is also etherially as good.
This IS a great tune-if you have quality speakers....
Your gear does not bring out the drummers work on the ride cymbals....
A sound W.B.A. has long been known for .....
This is prog similar to Barclay James Harvest.
Its Folk/Rock/Blues...
