Wishbone Ash - Vas Dis/Jailbait (BBC 1971)

            Wishbone Ash are a British rock band who achieved success in the early to mid-1970s

         "Vas Dis" was an old Jack McDuff jazz piece that Wishbone Ash had been performing live for some time as an exercise in turning a jazz number into a rock tune. The band rehearsed it in the studio, not realising that producer Derek Lawrence was recording, and it was this rehearsal take that appeared on the album.                                                               

             The live favourite "Jailbait" was composed "in about ten minutes" at a pub in Exeter, and came about as a joint band effort through jamming together. As the vocalist on this song, Ted Turner wrote a few lines of a lyric, which he completed with the help of drummer Steve Upton in about half an hour                                                              

           Pilgrimage is the second studio album by British rock band Wishbone Ash, released 1971.
