Wishbone Ash - LIVE DATES LIVE Compact Disc Digi

Almost fifty years ago to the month, British rock band Wishbone Ash brought out ‘Live Dates’, their most commercially successful album. A milestone,not only for the band, but also in the history of rock music. “At the time, we had been on tour non-stop for three years, had released ‘Argus’ – fromtoday’s point of view our most important studio album – and were like a well-oiled machine,” remembers founder Andy Powell, who continues tohelm the group. “We had made a name for ourselves as a dynamic live act, so it only made sense to capture the energy and vibrancy of our shows ona live album. Fortunately, the record company funded the costly Rolling Stones Mobile Recording Truck, so we were able to record several showsduring our UK tour and compile the most powerful moments on ‘Live Dates’.”
