Wishbone Ash are a British rock band who achieved particular success in the early and mid-1970s. Formed in My home town of Devon in 1969 out of the ashes of the group The Empty Vessels, which had featured Wishbone Ash's founding members Martin Turner and Steve Upton, the original line-up was completed by Andy Powell and Ted Turner.

Argus is the third album by the rock band Wishbone Ash. It is the most popular Wishbone Ash album and widely considered the greatest by fans and reviewers. It was named "Album of the Year" in the 1972 year-end issue of Sounds Magazine. The album features a blend of progressive rock, folk, and heavy metal, and is considered a landmark album in the progression of twin-lead guitar harmonization later adopted by bands such as Iron Maiden and Umphrey's McGee.

With the success of Argus, the band also became one of the most popular live attractions of the day.

The Vinyl

This is the original heavier and deeper grooved type of vinyl.!! On visual inspection this looks like new!! I can't see a blemish!!!! Any marks that could possibly be seen in strong light would only be light whispy sleeve removal marks!!!(NONE AUDIO SOUNDING AT ALL) SO RARE LIKE THIS!!!! There are (no) needle scratches or indeed any marks that would effect play. This looks in my opinion unplayed! Unbeleivabl for 37 years old!!

Please note! I always add this disclaimer! Please allow for the odd (not consistant throughout the audio) This is a genuine vinyl (not a reissue) that is 35 years old and would have originally been played on a 35 year olsd system!!!!! In my opinion this will produce the very top audio throughout!!LOOKS UNPLAYED!!!
