The band who Ashbury remind me most of is The Outlaws, from the guitar sound to the vocals. Check out their epic track "Green Grass & High Tides".

I have to add Granmax´s "Kiss Heaven Goodbye" to the list.
If only just for the song "Prince of the Southern Ice". Awesome!

Glad to see someone (ION BRITTON) mention "the real" ASIA - as I hold both their albums as being sadly overlooked classics. Btw have anyone here heard the ASIA-precursor Whitewing? If so, are they any good? Too soft?

Sounds interesting (the Saracen connection). I have to check it out. Is there a CD-reissue available? I have both Asia albums on one CD - official but remastered from vinyl as the original master tapes were lost if I remember right (I have never actually seen the original vinyls).

I suggest 70ies Texan Steel by Impeccable...not really a connection with Ashbury, but this is a killer band indeed! Oh, and their 7" as Axxe is wonderful also, one should check it out if quality is his/her request..

Does that mean that you could help me with downloading it or something like that? If so that would be awesome! (sorry about me being a technical idiot)

Good call, Impeccable were great, and definitely cut from the same cloth.
Their 7" as Axxe is even better in my opinion, you can d/l that one from live & otherwise blog.
