Pilgrimage is the second studio album by the rock band Wishbone Ash. The album focuses more on folk and acoustic music as opposed to the blues rock sound that dominated the first album.[citation needed] The album also contains an instrumental jazz workout ("Vas Dis")[2] and a four-part harmony vocal track in the spirit of Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young ("Valediction").[citation needed]
