Ah fergus, you bring a tear to my eye.....Wishbone Ash's 'Argus'.A band at their peak,which sadly,they never scaled as high again.I remember listening to that album on 8 track,would you believe, on my brother's all singing,all dancing cartridge system.'The King Will Come','Lay Down The Sword', 'Leaf and Stream','Warrior','Time Was' .....BLISS :-))))))))))
You got it right there Dermot, one of those Championship teams that never quite make it to the Premiership, and after they moved to the States they became, er, pants. BUT, Argus, Pilgrimage and Wishbone Four were worth being seen with in the schoolyard.
Nicely put John :-) and don't forget the first one too; I remember hearing 'Lady Whiskey' on the Kid Jenson show, being gobsmacked and then much later on hearing 'Errors of my Ways' and being totally lost to the Wishbone cause! Also still have the original tickets for the reformed original band back in the days (Olympia, I think) and I couldn't make the gig .....my biggest regret ever!!!!

Delighted to hear that they do fergus... BTW what prompted you to go for the power amp?
My pre-amp, although sweet, was not driving the Spendors as much as they needed and although the sound was fine the whole system needed a lift, to be honest....a bit of grunt
