This CD truly captures the Ash in its hard rocking form. Dual-guitars from Andy Powell and Muddy Manninen carry the melodies and intricate workings of each song.

No time was wasted before the fans came in and we gave 'em and up-close and personal show. There was no studio trickery except for some editing out of excessive banter, and what you hear is the show exactly as it went down with just a very basic one-pass remix of the multi-track recording. We hope you enjoy the listening experience of this CD as much as we enjoyed the recording experience"
- Andy Powell of Wishbone Ash

Every now and then, a fine guitar band will release one or two albums that just become so unbeatable that other hopefuls try to emulate their sound or the success. One of the finest hard-rocking guitar based bands in rock history have always been Wishbone Ash. They, fortunately, have a trail of albums that continue to thrill audiences and record buyers all over the world. With that in mind, Andy Powell and the band drove in from a snowy cold winter drive from the Northeast, and plugged in to the XM studios and delivered a show fit for a king.

The audience was made up of Ash fan club and contest winners, and the band performed a critic's choice of their most famous tracks. In this show, you hear "The King Will Come" "Blowin' Free" and "Ballad of the Beacon." The artists decided to give the radio audience and the fans a rare glimpse into their vast catalog of music, and the show was never to be repeated again, except for a very rare fan club disc....that is until now!

Andy Powell would love the Wishbone Ash folks that didn't make the gig back in 2004, have the pleasure of hearing what a few got a chance to witness. This new CD 'Live On XM Satellite Radio' truly captures the Ash in hard rocking form. Dual-guitars from Andy and Muddy Manninen (his fourth gig with the band!!!!) carry the melodies and intricate workings of each song The amazing bass of Bob Skeat and drummer extraordinaire Ray Weston continue the workout on nine selections that will thrill the listener from the first few seconds of the disc.
