Watch Wishbone Ash play the classic Blowin' Free on The Midnight Special 50 years ago

Wishbone Ash on The Midnight Special.

The Midnight Special's evergrowing archive of classic 1970s rock has received another boost, this time with the addition of a newly restored clip of Wishbone Ash performing their Argus album classic Blowin' Free.  

The footage comes from an episode broadcast in March 1974 – two years after Argus's release – at the tail end of Wishbone Ash's Live Dates tour, when they guested on a show hosted by The Guess Who. Other acts performing on the broadcast included pop star David Essex, folk guitar wizard Leo Kottke, singer-songwriter Judi Pulver, rock'n'roll revivalists Sha Na Na and glam icons Slade.
