JETHRO TULL

Jethro Tull were a unique phenomenon in popular music history.
Their mix of hard rock; folk melodies; blues licks; surreal, impossibly dense lyrics;
and overall profundity defied easy analysis, but that didn't dissuade fans from giving them
11 gold and five platinum albums. At the same time, critics rarely took them seriously,
and they were off the cutting edge of popular music since the end of the 1970s.
But no record store in the country would want to be without multiple copies
of each of their most popular albums

There are still elements of blues present in their music, but except for the opening track,
"A New Day Yesterday," it is far more muted than on their first album -- new lead guitarist Martin Barre
had few of the blues stylings that characterized Mick Abrahams' playing. Rather, the influence of
English folk music manifests itself on several cuts, including "Jeffrey Goes to Leicester Square" and "Look into the Sun."
The instrumental "Bouree," which could've passed for an early Blood, Sweat & Tears track, became
a favorite concert number, with an excellent solo bit featuring Cornick's bass, although at this point Anderson's flute
playing on-stage needed a lot of work. As a story-song with opaque lyrics, jarring tempo changes,
and loud electric passages juxtaposed with soft acoustic-textured sections, "Back to the Family" is an early forerunner
to Thick as a Brick. Similarly, "Reasons for Waiting," with its mix of closely miked acoustic guitar
and string orchestra, all hung around a hauntingly beautiful folk-based melody, pointed in the direction
of that conceptual piece and its follow-up, A Passion Play. The only major flaw in this album is the mix,
which divides the electric and acoustic instruments and fails to find a solid cente...(AllMusic)
