Time Was when I heard a loud raging fire and the sound of glory raised from the ash, when my Sometime World long playing higher dazzled the age with a hot vinyl flash! That Flying V Fender Strat Blowin’ Free amplified in my ear and in my brain, and The King Will Come slowly unto me when I hear the piper and drum again. In beauty of Leaf and Stream evermore fills that hypnotic Wishbone hymn in us, like a Warrior at the gates of war to rise again the legend of Argus. And in the end a new age will record the great band of four who Throw Down the Sword. Written: April 2008 Argus was a 1972 album by British band, Wishbone Ash. Still a classic!
