Artist:  Wishbone Ash

Title:  Number the Brave

Date:  1981

Label:  MCA Records   MCA-5200

Sleeve Design:  Cream

  

Notes:  While this might not be the best example of their work, it's still worth a spin or two. A hard rock outfit that bumps up against the prog border every so often, Ash played it straight and didn't hang their hat on any gimmicks. Some fine guitar chops and an overall tight rhythm section is all that's needed to pull us in for a listen. The cover art advises us to exercise caution when approaching.

 

Line Up: 

Andy Powell: vocals, guitar
Laurie Wisefield: vocals, guitar, slide guitar
Steve Upton: drums
John Wetton: vocals, bass, guitar, keyboards
