Jethro Tull - memories
I suddenly got the urge for memory lane and one from my past was Jethro Tull Thick as a brick. I enjoyed the memories very much and the experience was enhanced by the prompt service I got. It makes so much difference when you can get a sample before buying the item.

A brick to build on...
I was born in the early 80s, so obviously would have had some trouble catching this the first time round. I first got this as a stocking filler aged 14 and immediately fell in love with it. What makes it so special is that it's unlike anything else I know. I own a lot of other prog rock, but nothing really is so hard to define as this. What is it? A rock opera? A concept album? One song or a hundred? br / br /I really don't know, but what is evident is that it has stuck with me without diminishing in any respect in my view - it sounds fresh, creative, unbloated (which is unusual for prog rock) and always inspirational and I never tire of it. I will play it to my kids one day. br / br /"We'll have Superman for president, let Robin save the day".

30 years of the life of a brick in a wall
Meandering, interminable, lacking both melody plot, Ian was skating on thin ice when he concocted this pretentious load of twaddle. Would only appeal to lovers of the meaningless noodly. As an impressionable teenager I spent countless hours listening to this (well, at that age you have all the time in the world - you needed it for this) and read every single word of the newspaper gatefold (lyrics included). I even went to see them perform the whole album at the Albert Hall. The place was packed. Of course I must have loved it then. We all did. Hmmm, makes you wonder. br / br / Get This Was, Stand Up, Benefit or Aqualung instead. This has no merit whatsoever.

Classic Tull
If you like jethro Tull and dont have this album please go out and buy it is one of the best Tull albums the band did.I have a large Tull collection and this album along with Aqualung is my favourite.Remastered sound quality on album is excellent and gives great sound quality.Other classic Tull albums to look at are;Songs From The Wood.Heavy Horses.Too Old To Rock and Roll superb albums and all are digitally remastered.Thick As A Brick an absolute must for your collection.The music on the album is just fantastic and at this point in there career Tull were on a huge high, this album went to no 1 in the States and was a huge seller worldwide for the band which just goes to show the acclaim this album received.You really will enjoy this work. br /Hope review is of help to you.
