I actually had never heard of Wishbone Ash before PA. I just saw a list of five star reviews coming... (prog related? wtf?)

Well I of course ordered this one quite soon. And did not disappoint me. There are some of the finest songs I've ever heard. Time Was is the highlight of the album, starting with a nice slow acoustic guitar driven - intro and then just exploding to a wonderful rocker. The twin guitars just go right to your soul.

Sometime World also starts slowly with nice vocals (damn the british accent is nice :)) and then bursting to wonderful rocker and masterful guitarsolos.

Blowin' Free is the most poppiest song here. Nice vocals and beautiful melodies. Nothing bad to say.

The King Will Come is the proggiest song of the album, starting with a snareroll and guitarriff. Then it gets quite pure art rock. Damn good song.

Leaf And Stream is a slower one, wonderful guitarwork.

Warrior will remain as a classic forever, the introsolo is just fantastic, and then slow vocal part with amazing leadguitar in the back. A wonderful song, only the chorus vocals are quite weak.

Throw down the song starts just like The King Will Come, only with some organs in it. The snarefill is quite a killer. The guitarsolos in the end just drive you mad, a joy of music.

Another album to fill the black holes in my world of music. Something new for long time, a masterpiece.
