| Yes, Wishbone Ash. Brings back some good memories. I believe I
have a double album live set somewhere packed away in a box.
I've got to get it out and give it another listen.

| I remember "Argus" as being a very good LP. Great guitar work!

| I found the album I was mentioning. Live Dates was the name, recorded
in 73 at 4 venues in England. Listened to a couple of sides last night.
A couple of tunes sounded fresh and some dated. Wiskey Lady, Jail Bait
and The Pilgrim come to mind as still sounding good.

380.4 | they're back | RICKS::CALCAGNI | L'Angelo Minestronio | Wed Mar 03 1993 13:43 | 5 |
| Believe it or not, Wishbone Ash has more or less re-formed. Ted Turner
is back in the band, along with Andy Powell and Martin Turner. Not
sure about the drummer. The have a couple of recent CD releases out.
I haven't had much luck finding any of these locally; all you ever find
in the bins here is "Live Dates".

I think my favorite from Wishbone Ash is "Phoenix". I used to frequent
a nightclub in Royal Oak MI. (Coral Gables), where one of the regular
bands would perform it. Tough to dance to.

| I don't think Wishbone Ash ever broke up. And I believe they are just now
(past few months) getting their stuff re-released here (US). I had been
looking and looking too (you could find one, Noveau Calls).
What a band with the Turner Bros on twin lead!! I loved their twin lead sound.
And the vocals.
Last I knew One of the Turner's left the band but they were still going and
going and going (duracell rings a bell) and released a cd mentioned in a note
earlier "Noveau Calls" ... what was that 1988/9?

| I'm a little fuzzy on the exact changeover, but Ted Turner left the band
and was replaced by another guitarist, Laurie Wisfield (sp). I think
this happened around late 70's. I'm not sure if they were ever both in
the band during the transition, but Ted eventually left. I guess by
"re-formed", I meant back to the original lineup. Btw, the other
guitarist is Andy Powell; Martin Turner is the bassist, and the
two Turners aren't related.
