"For it is in fact the disc progressive blues quartet, nothing less."
WISHBONE ASH: "Pilgrimage 1971
already discussed in these pages, where Wishbone Ash was arrested via his" Live Dates "in 1974. A second approach would have liked to linger on "Argus", the masterpiece of 1972, and we would not be wrong.
But then, even if this disc is flawless from start to finish, offering and beautiful songs and timeless production, my favorite is my "Pilgrimage."
Predecessor "Argus", so he was released in 1971. What delighted me most is this beautiful pocket enigmatic, this sunset glowing behind a tangle of tree branches completely enigmatic, ghostly. And then there's this mystical name, with the cover reveals the rather rural nature and pagan.
Finally there among the Top Wishbone Ash, I mean closer to the bone. For it is in fact the disc progressive blues quartet, nothing less. While the following discs will clear more of a lush melodic heavy rock, Ash plays the blues and boogie. But in his way.
What you should know is that Wishbone Ash were formed from the ashes still smoking from the British Blues Boom. This current of the late '60s saw Chicken Shack, John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers, Fleetwood Mac, Savoy Brown, Cream and many other clear blues and jazz with the fury of rock.
Dice "Go Tell", a superb and energetic instrumental jazz-rock, the band explores new colors with a masterly thoroughness. We could see there than just jam, but already biting instruments actually more than just backtrack.
Then follows "The Pilgrim". Misty, melancholy, especially in his introduction, he reveals the true major influence of Ash: The Fleetwood Mac Peter Green. More specifically the album "Then Play On." We thus find in the introduction to "The Pilgrim" magnificent "Underway". And more generally the twin guitars. For the real inventors of this technique have in fact extended and perfected the technique of guitar dialogues ¨ Peter Green and Danny Kirwan. The long instrumental odyssey, punctuated too jazzy vocal lines, plunging the listener in a strange world made of old yellowed photos 70s, vast grassland and woodland traversed by a wave that plays with pebbles. 
And then there are breaks in feedback, blackening the sky, indicating the arrival of the danger. Concern grows, wind blows through the tall trees, and a silhouette, hunched and grimacing emerges without the flashes of the storm. A fox flees from this vision, the long grass lie downwind, and the figure seems to announce the bad omen.
Next comes "Jailbait." It's back to the urban, the industrious little town, the faces of the workers starting work early, the sun even rose. This is the story of convict will escape and warns her that baby. The doubt settles. The feedback rises, the vibrato of the Flying V and the Stratocaster to meet together in the terrifying hoots, announcing a sad end. The man goes out, but what will he find? The love she still? It is in any case a boogie rustic, giving the most beautiful games to guitars. 
But these are the guitars of Wishbone Ash, that is to say control, fine, chiseled, turns crystal clear and hot, or croaking. Do not look here a boogie to the Status Quo, this is not the kind of home. The riff is not fat their niche. Everything seems thoughtful juxtapositions of rhythm and solo guitars fit perfectly, Nothing seems left to the facility to primary riff. However, it shows an incredible sense of honesty and simplicity.
Is it a coincidence that the prisoner and his "Jailbait" is followed by "Alone," a melancholy instrumental? Concept album if there is not, this disc seems well thought out. This small inset 2'30''is yet a small miracle. "Lullaby" is a beautiful instrumental, which does nothing but refreshing. "Valediction" is the weak point of the album. Its melody a little too religious and impersonal striker coherence, despite its good performance.
Fortunately, the finale to forget this little faux pas: "Where Were You Tomorrow" is a boogie typed Savoy Brown. Simple, exuberant, he takes the listener for ten minutes in an odyssey almost nostalgic for the time, incredibly invigorating hand. Piece recorded live, so bursting with spontaneity, it is a delight to rock music. You'll find yourself listening to this track in full, without any second zap, solos drum, low, or exchanges with the public.
from this album, very instrumental, wobbly, it remains an amazing feeling. Comparing with "Argus" and "New England", this disc is rough-hewn, almost, than its predecessor, this first album which contained "Phoenix". Yet there are the superb sound, this blues rough and imperfect but wonderful these horizons that make this album a magic nugget. These imperfections are born great tenderness, that we may have the honest, human and generous.
