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.

Goodbye Baby, Hello Friend Lyrics
Wishbone Ash
Ill never write another song
For someone who just comes along -
The very thought of losing you
Is too much for me to.
The other day when you got mad,
It made you happy to see me sad.
I wish to tell you its still the same,
Still playing that same old game.
Its goodbye baby, hello friend,
Its good to meet you after all this time.
Goodbye baby, hello friend,
Its good to see you again. (repeat)
Those days and nights I lost,
Thinking bout what to do -
When all its really down to, baby,
Is saying that were through.
So give your love to the birds,
Speaking of four-letter words.
Do you hear what I say to you?
Im not in love with you.
Goodbye baby, hello friend,
Its good to see you again. (repeat)
