Artist: WISHBONE ASH
Album: CLAN DESTINY (CD)

Year: 2006
Media type: CD

Clan Destiny, the new release from classic rockers Wishbone Ash, lives up to expectations nicely. Though the band has been known for a revolving door membership over its lengthy existence, this version has been touring and going strong for awhile now. This CD, their first in four years, is testimony to the development of a band that constantly tours and plays, honing a craft, as the music is tightly executed and the musicianship is precise. The twin lead guitar excursions are still present, as are the amiable vocals and harmonies. It’s the first studio release to include Finnish guitarist Muddy Manninen, whose playing shines alongside that of Andy Powell, the band’s veteran member and leader.
