Formed in Devon in 1969 out of the ashes of the group The Empty Vessels, Wishbone Ash achieved particular success in
the early and mid-1970s with their most critically acclaimed records
including Wishbone Ash (1970), Argus (1972), There's the Rub (1974) and
New England (1976). Although the band lacked a definitive vocalist, they were famous for popularising the twin lead guitar.
The original Wishbone Ash were : Andy Powell - lead guitar, vocals, Ted Turner - lead guitar, vocals, Martin Turner - bass, vocals, Steve Upton - drums. [discogs.com]
The selection of the songs was made solely on the basis of the initial letter of their title, with the aim of forming the phrase Friday Rocks.
Taken from the albums:
Pilgrimage [1971] : 05 Wishbone Four [1973] : 02
New England [1976] : 07 Front Page News [1977] : 01
Number The Brave [1981] : 08 Twin Barrels Burning [1982] : 11
Raw To The Bone [1985] : 04 Nouveau Calls [1987] : 03
Hear To Here [1989] : 09, 10 Strange Affair [1991] : 06
I hope the result will not upset those who choose to listen to the songs and especially the fans of the band.
Let Wishbone Ash rock your "Friday" and enjoy !!
