WELCOME TO LPCDREISSUES
Following up on their success of their last two volumes Tracks 1 & 2 (both double C.D.'s) Tracks 3 brings the music right up to date and packs in more material than ever before with this special 3 CD release.
Formed in October 1969, the band garnered notice in the early days for a unique blend of blues, jazz and English folk. But it was the way the guitars played melodic leads together that would become Wishbone Ash's trademark, inspiring such bands as Thin Lizzy and Iron Maiden. Throughout the years, many notable musicians have contributed their talents to the band, including Asia's John Wetton, Trevor Bolder from Uriah Heep and Laurie Wisefield, who would later play guitar for Joe Cocker and Tina Turner.
Late in 2004, the band were joined by Finnish guitar slinger Muddy Manninen, who replaced fellow Finn Ben Granfelt. Wishbone Ash introduced Manninen to a receptive crowd at the annual UK AshCon in October 04, and US fans came out to get a look at the new guitar duo in action on a late fall tour. Tracks 3 essentially embraces the guitar work of the bands last three members Martin Birch, Ben Granfelt and Muddy Manninen along with tipping its' hat to the past.
With the band continuously touring all round the World and doing two major sell-out tours of the UK every Spring and Autumn their profile has never been higher.With the good sales still continuing for Tracks 1 and Tracks 2 this album will be a constant seller throughtout the year.
