A Spellbinding ALbum Of Jethro Tull’s Monster Hits!, August 19, 2000
By: Barron Laycock “Labradorman” (Temple, New Hampshire United States)
Anyone alive in the sixties remembers Juthro Tull’s magical music as part of the soundtrack of their young lives.
Under the strong influence of leader Ian Andersen, they produced a series of memorable classic albums,
and many of the best songs from that enduring effort is here.
From “Living In The Past” to “Thick As A Brick” to “Minstrel In The Gallery”,
all of their distinctive musical melodies and thoughtful and provocative lyrics
are delivered with their unique steamroller-like brand of stunning electric music.
My own personal favorites include “Aqualung”, one of Andersen’s most satiric songs,
with its soaring electric guitar and baneful reminders that it is time to finally get one’s act together.
I also especially like “Locomotive Breath”, another song along the same rueful lines,
and “Skating Away On The Thin Ice Of The New Day”, a reminder of how superficially and carelessly most of us live our lives.
This album is a rich witches’ brew of British magic, boiled specially for us in the iron cauldron
of one of the most exciting group’s to ever grace the stage.
Long live Ian Andersen and Jethro Tull. And remember, no matter what Ian may sing to you,
you’re still not too old to rock and roll! Enjoy!
