The January 6th, 2021 insurrectionists on Capitol Hill were singing the refrain of "Warrior". My response to them - "Throw Down the Sword."
Still one of my favourite albums, ever. I have heard this one live at least 5 times from the original band, and again from the current band and Martin Turner, too. I rate Martin as great bass player. The sound he has is gutsy and precise. He makes that old Thunderbird shake the stage. One of many Ash songs I played regularly.
In our earlier generations, all of us in the neighborhood could play some instrument. Covering such beautiful songs in original, has been a chalenge for me, being on keybords, I had to learn playing guitar for the second lead... investing time and effort covering Wishbon ash, had been a honor for us all... Now, we look back with nostalgie.... The music of today is full of desparation and emptyness and nonsense... Wishbone ashes indeed...
