The Thin Ice
One of the only covers ever?! Not counting classical pieces... or jazz, I suppose. But other than those. Here's Ian with some Pink Floyd!
-
Night in the Wilderness
Thank gourd this is the last song on the album. I don’t think I could take another sad, sorrowful, but somehow sweet song! Not sure I could’ve taken another one.

When Jesus Came To Play
A second coming story? Some hippy rocking out in a bar? Allegory that falls somewhere in between? Most likely the third, if we know anything about Ian, right?

Gold-Tipped Boots, Black Jacket and Tie
What can be said about this song? …seriously though, what can be said? There’s not a whole lot of substance here. Is it just a song about a very specific type of fashion? Not the best fashion, mind you, but very specific all the same. Then Omen comes in with the save, as usual.

Customer Reviews
Glad to hear you talking about Tull
Started late to the show, and enjoy it very much! My introduction to Jethro Tull was a review of Thick as a Brick in our high school newspaper. I was hooked from there. (This was 1972, so yes I’m a boomer that listens to podcasts) Just recently heard your review of Son, and was curious why there was no reference to the line of “ten days for watching the Sun-set” Enjoy the podcast very much and am looking forward to my favorite albums Aqualung to A, plus the ones that follow.

Too Old to Rock & Roll, Too Young to Quit Listening
While I just recently found you two, I have been listening too, and attending JT concerts since 1973. I, and others like me consider Thick as a Brick to be a work of art, a masterpiece, not just a great album. At this time, I am only up to Aqualung in your series, and have enjoyed your thoughts every time I walk my daughters dog. Some have made me laugh out loud, some, not so much. I have learned a few interesting tidbits about our favorite band along the way, and hope to learn more. My fondness for the band album wise quit with Stormwatch, but maybe you’ll change my mind. Keep it up guys. Just wish you would play more of the song your featuring that week. Mitch in Michigan
Ian is probably embarassed by these two
There is several constants that these two do in their podcasts.
Most of it is asking for money. Yes, they keep hoping to rob unsuspecting dupes by telling them that they are greater fools our there. I would not pay a penny for this podcast.
The "discussions" amount to these two "LOVE"ing any comment, and thoughtless one word responses.
They have painfully little to say about the richest songs, and the ones they do speak at length they do include some Tull trivia, but they are more about gay sex jokes, which are really tiresome. After a while you get the impression they think Jethro Tull is for gays or maybe they're just too concerned about their gay viewers. Sometimes they are such drama queens you wonder if they really like a song or not. They are afraid to voice any negative opinion, or to hear anyone else do likewise. Podcasts like that are not really worth listening to, at least regularly. I think 2/5 is fair.
