A pretty underrated hard rock/progressive rock record that has been cited by bands such as Iron Maiden as an influence. I also recommend this if you like Thin Lizzy too (which is another band that used twin lead guitars).

Phenomenal album.

Love the twin-guitars. Not so into the medieval-themed concepts but hey ho. You have to think of this as a classic of the 1970s. Standout tracks are "The King Will Come" and the outstanding "Warrior/Throw Down the Sword".

Saw them a few years back performing this in it's entirety as well as Wishbone 4. Extended versions of all of the songs. Great night.
