They found this on their next album, the incomparable Argus, but this album was important preparation and also gave them the success needed to enable them to take time to get the next album completely prepared. Vas Dis is one of the strangest tracks ever recorded by a band. Martin Turner's bass line and Steve Upton's drums drive the track along at a relentless pace with the twin guitars elaborating over the top and the "vocals" are scat style. Sounds weird but it works brilliantly. The excellent Pilgrim alternates quiet acoustic passages with harder rock and is a precursor of the Argus style. Jail Bait is a great conventional rock track. Alone and Lullaby are pleasant atmospheric instrumentals, but the gem of the whole album is Valediction, a song about the ending of a relationship. A fairly gentle number, it features some fine choral vocals, neat rhythm changes and some of the finest melodic guitar playing ever recorded. Wishbone Ash have occasionally been criticized by some for their vocal performance, but Martin Turner does an excellent job here and the rest of the band provide sound backing and choral support where needed. And through all the tracks, their instrumental virtuosity shines through.

PAYMENT BY PAYPAL ONLY IF BUYING MORE THAN ONE ITEM PLEASE WAIT FOR COMBINED INVOICE!!! --------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT COMBINED SHIPPING ON ALL 12" RECORDS (LPs / 12" SINGLES etc). PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY!!!! We offer combined shipping on vinyl records: our shipping rates are listed below. HOWEVER shipping packages that weigh more than 2kg is VERY expensive. Therefore we can only offer combined shipping up to a maximum of SIX (6) LPs / 12" records. Any extra purchases will be invoiced, packaged and shipped separately. ***Due to the physical logistics of how I can package orders, I will not combine box sets with other items, I will only package them individually*** --------------------------------------------------------- UK POSTAGE RATES FOR 12" RECORDS (LPs & 10"/12" SINGLES): 1 LP £4.25 2 LP £4.25 3 LP £6.50 4 LP £6.50 5 LP £6.50 6 LP £6.50 *********DOUBLES COUNT AS TWO********* INTERNATIONAL POSTAGE RATES TO EUROPE FOR 12" RECORDS: 1 LP £7.35 2 LP £8.65 3 LP £9.65 4 LP £10.45 5 LP £11.60 6 LP £12.40 INTERNATIONAL POSTAGE RATES TO "WORLD ZONE 1" (USA, CANADA, JAPAN etc ) FOR 12" RECORDS: 1 LP £9.80 2 LP £12.35 3 LP £14.50 4 LP £15.50 5 LP £17.00 6 LP £18.20 INTERNATIONAL POSTAGE RATES TO "WORLD ZONE 2" (AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND, SINGAPORE etc) 1 LP £10.50 2 LP £13.10 3 LP £15.25 4 LP £16.45 5 LP £18.25 6 LP £19.70 *********DOUBLES COUNT AS TWO********* ------------------------------------------------------------- POSTAGE RATES FOR 7” SINGLES & CDs: UK: £2.00 – then £0.50 each extra.

"WORLD ZONE 1" (USA, CANADA, JAPAN etc ): £6.00 – then £1.00 each extra "WORLD ZONE 2" (AUSTRALIA/NEW ZEALAND etc): £6.55 then £1.00 each extra *********DOUBLES COUNT AS TWO********* --------------------------------------------------- COMBINED POSTAGE FOR DIFFERENT FORMATS will be invoiced at my discretion: While I am happy to combine (for example) one or two 7” singles into one package with 12” records, sometimes it isn’t practical (like if you want me to combine one 12” record with three or more 7” records). 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.
