THE REVIEW
I am new to the place but I absolutely have to defend this Jethro Tull album! While there are absolute masterpieces (Aqualung - Thick as a Brick), this one, in my humble opinion, is no less.
Especially noteworthy is the wonderful and seductive One White Duck / 010 = Nothing at All, followed by the magnificent Baker St. Muse.
I think that within the fabric of these guitars lies the great mastery of this unforgettable progressive rock group.
Being Progressive is essentially a way of life and, let's face it, we miss these things in 2019!
Brief review just to defend, in my opinion, a great work by Jethro!

The title track is one of the two main masterpieces of the album, with a very medieval initial atmosphere, decidedly chilling.
"Black Satin Dancer" is a song suspended between the sad and the carefree with a perfect guitar solo.
By STIPE
One of these moments for the band came in 1975 when they released "Minstrel in The Gallery". An album that is nothing short of poor.
A horrendous album, to be avoided and never listened to!!

The Jethro Tull, at least those from the Progressive era, have never been a band of and for Ian Anderson alone.
Minstrel describes how the band was now dedicated to work... Anderson with acoustic and alone on one side and the rest of the band on the other.
