Argus

"Ted Turner and Andy Powell are probably the most interesting two-guitar team since the days when Beck and Page graced the Yardbirds. They work hand in glove, and exploit the possibilities of their partnership on this, the band’s third album. But Wishbone Ash is no guitar group. They use lots of variety, and write fine songs".MELODY MAKER – June 1972Originally released in April 1972, “Argus” is perhaps the crowning moment of the recording career of Wishbone Ash. The album would become regarded by fans and critics as the definitive Wishbone Ash album, with every track becoming a requested favourite at concerts by the band to this day. “Argus” propelled the band to major league status among rock bands of the time alongside Deep Purple, Jethro Tull, Uriah Heep, Black Sabbath et al. The variety of styles covered in the accomplished compositions (with folk, jazz and blues rock influences apparent) was the result of three years of sweat and toil on the concert stages of Europe and America, an unrelenting and extremely punishing schedule that saw Wishbone Ash hone their craft both as songwriters and performers to perfection. The Universal Deluxe Edition of “Argus” features the original album mix, newly remastered from the original tapes, plus rare BBC Radio sessions, live recordings from 1972 and a bonus disc featuring the band’s memorable 1972 BBC Radio One “In Concert” appearance which launched “Argus” and remains one of the best concerts recorded for radio by Wishbone Ash.
