OPENING NIGHT

MTWA delighted fans last night at the opening night of its Life Begins UK tour. The intimate setting of the Beaverwood Club, Chislehurst served as an ideal warm-up venue for tonight's prestigious London show at the 100 Club and the band received a rapturous response as, fresh from a series of four shows in Greece, they unveiled their new set list to a UK audience.

Classic tracks merged well with lesser heard songs, which included a four-song Wishbone Four sequence in the first half of the show. The set offered a number of surprises, including the first ever live performance of No Smoke Without Fire track "Ships In The Sky", resplendant with some outstanding three part harmony vocals, a lead vocal from Danny Willson on "Rock n Roll Widow", and Ray stepping up to handle co-lead vocals on "Ballad of the Beacon" and "Errors of my Way". Martin Turner upheld his position as the defining voice and bass of Wishbone Ash music throughout.

The band have clearly worked hard on this show, compiling a set that will please both dedicated fans and casual listeners alike.

We encourage fans to post their reviews of the Life Begins shows they attend, either by e-mail or via our forum
