Wishbone Ash

'Wishbone Four'

MCA, UK, 1973

MDKS 8011

WISHBONE ASH shot to prominance in the early seventies via a brace of great albums including the all time classic 'Argus'. By the time they had reached album number four they had established themselves amongst the cognescenti of British rock. Not as heavy as Deep Purple but not as quaint as Barclay James Harvest, they existed in a world where musicianship & songs were more important that posturing and posing. Combining the first ever amalgam of hard rock with British folk rock, the bands penchant for long intricate songs punctuated by impressive guitar duals helped to elevate them to a stately position that lasted for most of the seventies.

This album showcases the band in fine form concentrating on songs more than riffing although that doesn't mean to say that the twin lead guitar attack is absent. Certainly tracks such as 'Doctor', 'Sorrel' and 'Rock 'N Roll Widow' include the customer lead guitar quota alongside great arrangements and exceptionally clean production courtesy of the band themselves. A great album from a truly great band.
