    Im glad you dug this complex work up . TULL was a major force in the 1970's . Ferociously creative . Slyly satirical . Deep and thought provoking for those listening with close attention .

    Along with Anderson's brilliance, you sometimes forget what a superb group of musicians they all are. John Evan's performance on this is sublime.

      Makes the debacle of 'A', all the more incomprehensible (although Ian does present a personality that is ruthless and spikey. Barlow revealed that Ian's dog (around the time of Heavy Horses) defecated on his lap, and Ian's response was simply to laugh). However, it was the worst mis-step Anderson ever made. Barlow, Evans, Barre and Hammond, and latterly Glascock, and Palmer, were the finest musicians Anderson assembled, or could be surrounded by - on a par - as far as competency and virtuosity - with any of their peers of the golden period of rock.

    I love PP -- A young man is born and skips merrily and foolishly though his experiences and then BAM he is no longer living -- and so his journey to afterlife begins -- Please include The Hare Who Lost His Spectacles -- I love that little fable -- I knew you would feel the beat of the progressive vibe and sway though the labyrinth of sounds --- all swirling about but still leading the listener onward

    I don't know if your aware of this but this was the second straight Tull album to go number one with only one song on it stretched out to both sides of the album. No other band or artist in history did that having two number one albums back to back with one song on each album. This is why I say Ian Anderson is a genius. You should listen to baker street muse from minstrel in the gallery. 16 minutes of musical genius

    I think all the music you have been reacting to over the past year(s) has lead to your ability to not only listen to a full album side but actually LISTEN to it. A lot of us old warhorses had classical music in our education which, slightly, prepared us to let this complex, beautiful thing into our lives. I am wonderfully surprised and marginally more optimistic about the future of human kind knowing that some young people can cope with something that is more than a drum machine, bad poetry and misogynistic videos.

    You should have seen the stage show that went along with this and every other Tull concert. Ian Anderson challenges you musically, lyriclly & visually. Superior muscians Martin Barre, John Evan, Jeffrey Hamond and Barry Barlow was the most insanely creative drummer ever. Saw Tull 20x in their heyday. Dig deep there is so much exploring to do

    • @kentclark6420
      @kentclark6420 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Their best lineup. Although the early lineups with Clive Bunker and Glenn Cornick were fun, too. Glenn is thought to be the best bass player that Tull had. But the bass is so subtle, it's hard to tell.

    Brilliant album ! You should watch the 7mn clip made for "Forest Dance" (which is the instrumental that closes your part I) followed by "The Story of the Hare Who Lost His Spectacles" which will start your second part (but which in fact closed the first side of the album originally). The band members appearing either in costume or in cameo as in the case of Ian Anderson, as well as bassist Jeffrey Hammond who is the storyteller of "The Story of the Hare Who Lost His Spectacles" (The ballerina from the record cover is also present).

This quick re work seems a little overproduced to me which kills a lot of the natural sound. Think Martin's guitar in particular is reduced to almost a backing instrument for most of the album. Live however ( saw them in July '74 ) unbelievable.Love the concept, but mid range for me. Stand Up, MITG, TAAB, Benefit & Stormwatch my favourites.

      @@martinhayward4466 My view on 'A Passion Play' is that it lacks form and tends to meander into too many blind alleys. I basically find it all a bit erratic and annoying. As for my top 5 in no particular order, they are 'Stand Up', 'Benefit', Minstrel In The Gallery', 'Heavy Horses', and being a 'mere' 55 years old, 'Broadsword And The Beast' because it was the first Tull album i purchased upon release!

    I remember Jethro Tull from way back when it the big hit was 'Locomotive Breath'. That was fine, but the progressive albums, 'Thick as a Brick' and this one, 'A Passion Play' were so much more interesting to me musically. And much more complex! Everyone in the band. I miss albums like this.
