The album boasted extended compositions, some of them ("Time Was," "Sometime World") actually medleys of different tunes, played with assurance and developing into imaginative explorations of new musical territory and group interaction. The lyrics touched on medieval themes ("The King Will Come," "Warrior") always popular with British rock bands, adding a majestic tone to the music, but it was the arrangements, with their twin lead guitar parts and open spaces for jamming, that made the songs work so well. Over the years Argus came to be seen as the quintessential Wishbone Ash recording, the one that best realized the group's complex vision.

I do not think that these combinations can be packaged together safely and securely. Therefore these will be invoiced separately as two packages. IF YOU ARE UNSURE, please contact me before bidding! --------------------------------------------------- Sorry but I am no longer willing to carry combined transactions beyond two weeks of auctions (see below). --------------------------------------------------- PAYMENT I would appreciate payment within seven days of the auction's end. If you want to bid on more of our auctions ending a week later please inform me. I will wait and issue a combined invoice at the close of the second week's auctions. However, I am no longer willing to carry combined transactions beyond two weeks and in these cases would appreciate payment promptly after the close of the second week's auctions. I am sorry to have to introduce these measures – I always try to be patient and allow buyers to bid on extra auctions and / or delay payment. Unfortunately some buyers have been stretching out transactions to unacceptable lengths so I have no option but to limit 'carried over' transactions to two weeks.
