The King will come
Mono Monday - Corners
"The checkerboard of nights and days
Man will die, man be saved
The sky will fall, the earth will pray
When judgment comes to claim its day"
Wishbone Ash - The King Will Come
Monday rolls around relentlessly again, and with it comes this week's Mono Monday challenge on the subject of corners. If you are from the UK this is the game of draughts, although I understand that it is also known as checkers elsewhere :-)
The song lyric seemed somehow appropriate. Wishbone Ash were a great band although their lyrics were not the strongest element. But on their day the twin guitar harmonies of Andy Powell and Ted Turner, supported by Martin Turner's contrapuntal bass lines and Steve Upton's great drumming were a force to be reckoned with. There's nothing like a good old wallow in 70's nostalgia when you are recuperating :-)
