Heavy Metal Roots And Branches Post #9

Wishbone Ash's Twin Guitar Attack was a heavy influence on early Traditional Hard Rock and Heavy Metal bands. Thin Lizzy, Judas Priest, Def Leppard, and Iron Maiden all featured a Dual Lead Guitar line-ups attributed to the influence of Wishbone Ash. Granted Wishbone Ash's music is a little removed from Heavy Metal, this straight forward hard rocking unit played a huge role in the development of the classic Heavy Metal sound. In Rolling Stone Magazine Andy Powell and Ted Turner were voted into the Top 20 Most Influential Guitarists Of All Time. Their fans already knew this.
