Wishbone Ash can trace its origins back to Torquay, a seaside resort in the south west of England. It was here that Martin Turner and Steve Upton first performed together - Turner bass - Upton the drums, before moving to London in 1969 to seek fame and fortune. It was in the capital that a decision was made to place an advert for a keyboard player and a lead guitarist. The following audition threw up 2 guitar leads but nobody could decide who to choose and the trademark twin lead sound of Wishbone Ash was born. Ted (David) Turner and Andy Powell soon went through the poverty and growing pains of a new band but were fortunate that Miles Copeland was championing their cause and a fairly rapid progression was achieved.

Baby The Angels Are Here Lyrics
Wishbone Ash
No smoke without fire
If the sky was light
And the moon shine brightly
Then wed be away tonight
Better chance be taken
Than love forsaken
This aint no mistake that Im making.
Baby the angels are here,
Brought me a Bible and a gun,
Baby I wanted to stay with you,
But theyre saying Id better run,
Cause heavens a footstep away.
Well I was hoping to make it
Sometimes you put it together
Before you try
Let it take its course,
Because you just cant force it
And I dont want to break down and cry.
Baby the angels are here,
Brought me a Bible and a gun,
Baby I wanted to stay with you,
But theyre saying Id better run,
Cause heavens a footstep away.
