Wishbone Ash - Raw to the Bone (Limited Edition Vinyl Picture Disc)

Raw to the Bone is the 13th album by Wishbone Ash. It is the only Wishbone Ash album to feature Mervyn Spence on bass and vocals. It is also the last album with guitarist/vocalist Laurie Wisefield, who ended his eleven-year stint with Wishbone Ash after its release. This is a smart and vibrant follow-up to Twin Barrels Burning, which showed Wishbone Ash could easily add more commercial strings to their bow.

Wishbone Ash - Raw to the Bone (Limited Edition Vinyl Picture Disc)

It may not have become an instant classic, but with so many radio-friendly hooks on display every track will get feet tapping and heads nodding. No song is stretched out, each last just as long to make an impact and then moves smartly out of the way. Dreams (Searching for an Answer), Love is Blue and Little Feat pitched Rocket in My Pocket combine Mervyn Spence’s exceptional vocals, prancing bass lines and simplistic guitar licks plastered all over the place. In addition, there are two real standouts: People in Motion melts that deliciously vague guitar riff with a euphoric refrain melody, and Cell of Fame has all the confidence of slickly executed arena rock and one of those hooks that you can’t help but sing along to.
