Andy Powell (born 19 February 1950 in Stepney, East London, UK) - English guitarist and one of the founders of the English rock band Wishbone Ash. Powell is the only original member of the current line-up. Powell, along with Ted Turner were among the first proponents of the "two lead guitars." Their music had an influence on such "dual guitar" bands as Thin Lizzy, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and Big Country. Its most famous guitar is a Gibson Flying V model from 1967. <a href="https://www.last.fm
