5 stars Undoubtedly the best Wishbone Ash release, ever. The previous albums were pleasing enough, here every note is in the right place. Not one too many, not one too few.

From beginning to end "Argus" pleases as few complete albums by anyone ever have. Be that ELP, KC, Genesis, or Yes. There is strenght in every note, the vocals and in the complete delivery.

The bonus tracks on the CD release tend to take some of the shine away and should have never been associated with this album, so my comments here refer to the original LP release.

After this WA weren't able to maintain this high standard and apart from the odd, fortunate composition here and there, they've never come anywhere near this masterpiece. Highly recommended to anyone with Prog leanings.
