dragster Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I have the original vinyl..........I say GO FOR IT QUICK....you won't be disappointed!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ady Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 It's a brilliant album that never gets old. I love it as much as I do my favourite Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple & Black Sabbath albums. It's timeless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr E Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Great album! Although I already have this on CD and that was supposed to be remastered. All this re-remastering does annoy me. Is it actually any better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it actually any better? Yeah that's the one I have. This new one is a 2-disc edition with some "BBC In Concert Sessions" on it : http://www.play.com/Music/CD/4-/3496413//Argus/Product.html Not worth it if you already have the other version, not at £14.99 anyway. I'd rather they just released the BBC Sessions separately for half the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylviane Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 It's a brilliant album that never gets old. I love it as much as I do my favourite Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple & Black Sabbath albums. It's timeless. I think so too. I really like Wishbone Ash. I saw them in concert in my town (Verviers in Belgium) last year an I'll see them again next month. Happy to see that they are other fans of them here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRambler Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I love Wishbone Ash and always have done since I heard Jailbait in the seventies. I would have liked to have gone to see Andy Powell's Wishbone Ash recently in Glasgow but no one I know likes them!!! Should have gone myself, I've done it before but I was a lot younger then. Their sound has never been repeated and it was so different. With their medieval lyrics on Throw Down the Sword and The King Will Come and the twin lead guitars of Ted Turner, who was gorgeous and Andy Powell they were definitely a mega talented band.
