With the 70's came the live album, and this rates up there with the best of them. Purple had Made in Japan and Yes had Yessongs, and now Ash had their Live Dates.
WishboneAsh had already released four excellent studio recordings, but like many bands in this era, they really came into their own on stage. Like Argus, their third album, no Ash fan should be without this album!
All the classic Ash songs are on here: The King Will Come, Blowin' Free, Warrior, Pheonix, Lady Whiskey and many more.
If you like guitar and vocal harmonies, then you'll like Ash, and you'll love this album. Wisbone Ash are still playing today, and are still well worth going to see.
It's a pity everything after this album went downhill for Ash. ...
Advantages: Classic Bond moments in first half of the film. Disadvantages: Gadgets ruin the film, as does John Cleese as Q.
Madonna who sang the title song of the film has been given a cameo part. Her scene is completely under lit and leaves her looking rather butch. By the way the title song is not one of the memorable ones in the series and can be quite annoying after hearing it a few times.
Released in 2002, the film marked the 40thAnniversary of the franchise. The Gun Barrel sequence was adjusted slightly, a number of reference to all previous films were made throughout the film itself, the most obvious one being in the scene with the new Q where a whole scope of gadgets from previous adventures are seen. , and the use of the Aston Martin made a welcome and long overdue return to the screen as Bond's car of choice as the BMW's were not used in the film at all. The Aston Martin is put to much more use than previous film as Bond uses the car throughout ...
Advantages: Technically very good, virtuoso performances, good prog Disadvantages: A little dated, won't make you look trendy
Ash don't seem to have dated as well as other bands: they did the twin lead guitar thing and combined rock, folk and blues long before Thin Lizzy but while Lizzy are perennial favourites Ash are largely forgotten.
The Allman Brothers are revered but say "Ted Turner and Andy Powell" and people would probably say: "Television guy? Radio One DJ?"
Originally released in April 1972, "Argus" is said to be the crowning moment of the recording career of WishboneAsh. Fans and critics see it as the definitive Ash album yet I bet it hardly ever figures in those "best 100 albums of all time polls" you get when magazines and newspapers need to fill space.
If you've never heard of Ash, they're a bit like Jethro Tull or Yes: prog rock combined with jazz, blues and folk, with quite delicate vocals. In fact the whole sound is quite delicate ...
