Customer Reviews:

Two great albums on one CD!.......2007-05-09

New England by Wishbone Ash is one of the most underated albums of that time period. All of the tunes flow into each other making it a pleasure to listen to. Loreli has to be one of the their graetest tunes.. Couple the album with another outstaning album-Front Page News is like having cool and obscure bonus tracks. Great CD for all Wishbone Ash fans as well as younger baby boomers. Russell Ray Pittsburgh, PA.

Long ago and a quiet a bit younger.......2007-03-20

I used to have a vinyl copy of this and I wore it out. This is just a typical Wishbone Ash cd. Every song on it is good and will get stuck in your player.

Just the best 2 in one wrapping.......2005-03-12

Be selective with Wishbone Ash, just go straight for their best albums like "Front page news" and "New England", even stacked into one box here. It is super melodic music with excellent guitar playing throughout.

Front Page news (77) was the first one I heard. It seems like a good holiday gave this record the extra relaxed touch. The best song for me is "Surface to air" with its two twin-guitar duels slowly taking flight. The opener "Front Page News" is a good visit card, a bluesy theme with tasteful guitar coloring, "714" is a guitar floating in from heaven on a tropical beach, "Right or wrong" is pure hardrock, and "Heartbeat" shows Martin Turner's voice is at its best at bluesy ballads.

"New England" (76) has the same quality level. Favorites are: "In all of my dreams (you rescue me)" for its lovely chord work and solo's, "Tropical Island" (see "714"), "Outward bound", "Lorelei" and "Runaway" (see "Right or wrong").

For me, they never really came close before or after these!

New fans should start here..........2002-07-08

This is 2 albums: New England (1976) and Front Page News (1977) re-issued together on a double CD. New England shows W.A. at what was perhaps their creative peak, in retrospect. It alone is worth the price of the package. Creative, great playing, great harmonies. W.A. was one of the most influential 70's British bands, but for some reason never achieved massive stardom. They had a unique style, unique harmonies. Maybe W.A. musicical style was a bit too subtle for the mass public to fully appreciate. Still enjoyable after all these years.

Great 2 disc set........2001-08-09

'Front page news' is of course one of the classic albums by Wishbone Ash, definitely 70's music here(always a good thing)and all the tracks are quite good, check out the following tracks- Front page news, Goodbye baby hello friend, Come in from the rain, Heartbeat. These guys are very serious about their craft and it shows. While this remastered BGO version didn't make me stand up and say 'OH WOW!!', it is better than the companion disc 'New England' in terms of sound. 'New England' is a superb album but suffers from a veiled and muddy sound picture. In this case, get the single German import version. Their original label MCA could have given both of these discs a proper remastering but ironically chose not to. This is as good as it will get for now.

Different albums, but both satisfying.......2000-09-13

Sports is unquestionably the News' breakout album. Small World seems to get dissed a lot, but I found it to be a solid effort. The title track(s) have a good groove, with tasty Tower of Power horn hooks, and Part II has Stan Getz soloing in one of his last performances before he died! Perfect World is good, Slammin' cooks, and World to Me is as good a ballad as Huey ever recorded. Is Bobo Tempo bad? Yeah that track is lame. But the rest is very good stuff.

Im being generous with this rating.......1999-11-19

As a die hard HLN fan, I was eagerly awaiting the Fore follow up Small World back in 88'. Unfortunantly, I was dissapointed to say the least. Songs like "Old Antones" and "Bobo Tempo" made my stomach do things its not supposed to do. Only songs like "Perfect World" "Gimme the Keys" and "World to Me" saved this cd from being turned into a drink coaster or clock. Everyband has their one bad record, and this one was definantly it. Luckily the boys redeemed themselves nicely with the next release Hard at Play. Small World? More like Small Effort.

What an odd combo.......1999-10-29

I didn't buy this but I do have both of these on CD. I suppose this is the only way they can sell Small World - which was just awful. They've packaged it with their best in Sports. Whoever has this should share with us how they can listen to the Sports part and then not puke when it gets to Small World.
