PILGRIMAGE

WISHBONE ASH "Pilgrimage", although in majority of his total time (45:13) don't present a really prog music , With the exception of the two initial Tracks "Vas Dis" and title track "Pilgrimage"( two great musical ideas) the rest of the album is much more a hard- rock album with some soft passages which slightly reminds or suggests progressive music. So... will be enough an analysis of two above mentioned tracks. In fact the two tracks are very similar in construction, a repetition of a same theme during the most or total time - the first track "Vas Dis" shows a excellent duet guitars/vocals and is their major attraction ! The second track after a almost pastoral passage brings the same repetition of bass/drums rhythm and a chorus in a counterpoint with the instrumental part ( not in duet , like in previous track ) This only two tracks in my opinion don't makes a great collection item, by this considerations my rate is 3 stars !!!
