Vintage Tull is always great. Note - New Ian Anderson Thick as a Brick II disk is his best in years. Would like to hear some of it here as well.

Great old Tull song. Very glad to hear this pop up on RP once in a while. The haters should give the old JT stuff a chance before casting their condemnations. It's a little different but isn't what you want anyway?

Yes. Godlike for 42 years now. Sick to say that. But was there then and there now too.

Way back then, I bought this on the strength of "Teacher," and wasn't too disappointed—as I recall. At some point Reprise runs a contest either through Rolling Stone or local radio: first one to submit the total time of Benefit wins something. Easy, right? Here was the catch: on the original pressing of the album, there are no track times. I imagined then, and even now methinks, the suits at Reprise getting a chuckle out of very-stoned-and-very-confused-hippies trying to figure out the track times. I thought then—and I think now, "Fuck them."

Just gonna pop in to say: "Damn, why does Jethro Tull sound so good to me?"
Well, my parents had the albums—-but I did not overhear it. I'll give it a 9.

I've always liked Martin Barre's guitar work - especially his tone.

I liked this album more then than I do now.  But I still think that their first, This Was, was their best.

You may have been mislead like countless others due to Jethro Tull winning a Grammy award in the 80's for best heavy metal/hard rock performance, beating out favourites Metallica. This of course led to widespread criticism of the Academy for being out of touch with the real world as JT obviously did not belong in either category.

I'm not surprised. Tull were such a distinctive group that they were bound to generate as much dislike as liking. Plainly they were extremely popular in the 70s, because they made a stack - Ian Anderson used his to buy a big spread on the Isle of Skye, so I was told by a postie yonks ago on my first visit to the place, though I don't know if he's still there. Kudos to them for mixing folk with 'progressive rock' and becoming a supergroup. Sadly, I couldn't bear them in the 70s, and still can't. IMHO the only decent thing they did was the newspaper cover to their album Thick as a Brick, which was a very funny satire on tabloid papers.

Nice song from a nice album. When I say nice I actually mean more than nice. That is a rating of 7 or more.

Many things seem to be "nice" for you!
Is "nice" a 5? Or is "nice" an 8 or even a 10?

Can't you vary your comments a bit?
Just for me....?

Tull always takes me on an adventure with every song. I've never heard this one - but it's very good (and my adventure promises to be pretty interesting as well.) Thanks to whoever uploaded this.  And, as always, thanks to Bill and Rebecca for providing us with music that moves us (sometimes it moves some denizens to throw up, but still - movement is a GOOD thing, right?) {#Lol}

I just love RadioParadise. {#Sunny}

Yo yo kind of morning here in the U.S. on RP.  Bouncing from good to bad with every track.  Please keep JT in dust jacket next time.  Although the hand claps are an interesting touch.  And dirty guitar is a welcome blast from the past.  Ok, I'm upping my rating a bit.
