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.

Can’t Fight Love Lyrics
Wishbone Ash
I dont care about no curfew tonight -
I just come of age, my car is stood outside.
Got my wings and Im looking for a place to roost -
Cruise with the boys, catch anything on the loose.
Going down the road, and my tail lights glow...
Im going to accelerate in some old fatty bar, yes sir,
If I hit the deck, just pick me up for some more.
Going to look around till the first girl smiles at me,
And on the way home Ill check out her i.d.
Going down the road, and my tail lights glow...
I cant fight love,
I cant fight love at first sight.
I cant fight love,
I cant fight love.
Im going to write my graffiti on the wall -
Paint this town like its never been done before.
The way I feel, theres nothing I cant do,
So hold on, baby, Im coming straight on through.
Going down the road, and my tail lights glow...
I cant fight love,
I cant fight love at first sight.
I cant fight love,
I cant fight love.
Running wild with the pack, ace up my sleeve,
Got a taste of your love, and its blinding me.
Cant see straight, thats for sure.
Me, Im knocking on your pearly door.
Going down the road, and my tail lights glow...
I cant fight love,
I cant fight love at first sight.
I cant fight love,
I cant fight love.
Dont want to fight your love,
Cant fight love.
Dont want to fight your love,
Cant fight love.
Got to give it to me now.
Cant fight love.
I cant fight your love.
