Produktbeschreibung

Wishbone Ash were formed in London in 1969 by Andy Powell, Martin Turner, Steve Upton and Ted Turner. They spent the 1970s touring constantly, creating a distinctive, original sound, with twin lead guitars often playing in harmony. They are best known for the music recorded by the band's original members from 1970 to 1973, known as 'Mark One', and Argus, released in 1972, is often considered their finest album. 'Mark Two' of the band, which saw original guitarist Ted Turner replaced by Laurie Wisefield, continued their success until 1980. A developing musical landscape in the early 1980s led to further changes in personnel and musical direction, including the departure of original bassist and lead vocalist Martin Turner.
Combining original interpretation and analysis with historical research, this book explores the twelve studio albums and significant live albums that Wishbone Ash released from 1970 to 1982, along with all the bonus material which has since been issued from that era. It references the background, inspiration, and milestones that have shaped the band's musical journey, so whether you are already a fan or someone who would like to find out more about the band and their rich, expressive, and inspiring legacy, this book is for you.
