Thank you so much for the info. There are so many bands to Remember then band members then songs... it's a lot. Thank you for being graceful and informative. You rock.
This is such a tremendous album, one of my faves. It was recorded in a short break in their 'Warchild Tour' and they just added the new material to their set-list when they picked up touring again. That is part of the feel of it, it's very responsive to what they were going through on tour, in real life, dealing with having become one of the biggest bands in the world and all the adulation and scrutiny that brings. Ian's marriage was falling apart, so there are songs and content on this album that are more overtly personal - if not still a bit convoluted - than on previous albums, such as One White Duck, etc. The final song on the album, Baker Street Muse, is easily one of my favorite songs of all time. Thanks very much for reacting to this whole album, it's a treasure.
Baker st muse was absolutely awesome. The way they brought it all together at the end was INSANE lol. I love these guys. I am full on Tull head now haha Thanks for watching bro!! I appreciate it.
@@L33Reacts I'm chuckling .... Many say that the cord progression in Hotel California was lifted from Tull's 'We Used To Know'. Anderson has said that there is a limited number of cord progressions and you're going to run into similarities eventually.
Oh, the absolute BEST part of my Thanksgiving day! I woke up groggy, snarling at the world and irritated by life itself - God have mercy! And in His infinte wisdom He sends an ultimate comfort and treat - You, L33, listening to a Tull album, one of their best, with completely undivided attention - and the band played on! Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope side 2 is arriving soon. But I shall receive gratefully the massive improvement in mood this gift has brought me and count my blessings. If I am to wait, well, it will be that much sweeter on arrival! God bless you Lee!
This album was my introduction to Tull in the mid 1970s. The station played the first track and I was hooked. Up until then the only song I had heard from them was Bungle In The Jungle on FM radio. This entire album is a hidden treasure, every track a priceless gem. BAKER STREET MUSE (side 2) is one of their very best efforts. Enjoy!
I was floored at the end of baker st. I didn't know what to say almost... it was just something you bask in while it lasts and relay it back later. So damn powerful.
@L33Reacts And it's one of those kind of complex tracks that just gets more and more enjoyable the more you listen to it and memorize the sections. I envy you right now just beginning that journey..
Thanks bro . My second son's name is Jethro. Tull and Yes have been the biggest musical influence since I was 13. Hitting 50 soon. Prog on. Passion Play next😁👍
My favourite progression of Tull albums is Minstrel in the Gallery(75) > Too Old to Rock n Roll Too Young to Die (76) > Songs from the Wood(77) > Heavy Horses (78). I like all Tull but these 4 one after the other show a vein of superb imaginative songwriting that really hits home with me.
Great choice for an album reaction! 👏 this album has so much variety and is definitely among their best. As usual I like you talks, and it's obvious you're geniune, man 🤙 you're like my new favorite youtuber. I'd help a brother out and donate if I wasn't broke myself 😓 Eager to hear your final thoughts in the next part!
The drummers in Tull are some of the best in prog...Clive Bunker and Barrymore were/are BEAST ...Their beats are intense as hell! The solo on side two of Thick as a brick is testament to that...
Dude. Thanks for this awesome reaction. Your take is refreshing. Your view on music is great. Oh, btw, your chest hair is great. Don't worry about showing it. You make me smile.
In my humble opinion, this is Tull at their zenith, their swan song. Ian was lyrically at his peak. The band were playing at their peak and this album proves what a genius Ian is. It's a progressive masterpiece right up there with Fragile by Yes. Baker Street muse is flawless
I must have this album in over a dozen different versions , whether its vinyl , CD , cassette , or box-set. I just think it represents the pinnacle of what a progressive-folk album should sound like. Top performances from each member of the band... I've played it to death over the years. Can't recommend it highly enough.....I can't get out !!! Happy Thanksgiving from the other side of the pond. 😍
I think the descending chords in Black Satin Dancer may be reminding you of 25 or 6 to 4 by Chicago, although it's been done in other songs like Babe I'm Going To Leave You by Zeppelin and probably many more.
A lot of bands claim that they were inspired by Jethro Tull. If you notice, Ian Anderson is one great acoustic guitar player, you won't find many that are better. If any. A martin Barre It's such a great guitar player. He has his own band and he does mostly all Jethro Tull songs. If you get the chance to see Martin's band don't Don't miss it, he is phenomenal.
That descending bass line in the middle of "Black Satin Dancer" is reminiscent of Led Zep's "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You" from their 1st album. It's a very basic descending minor motif.
Ians work is vast . Starting with Standup in 1969 and ending with The Zealot Gene 2022 JT has put out 49 albums including live records spanning 53 years. On august 18th 2023 Ian Anderson announced The start of Jethro Tull's Seven Decades Tour.Unfortunately that last show was earlier this month. ( i just found out tonight about it. Damn) But no worries somewhere in the world the Mad Minstrel is still working his magic. Ian will turn 77 next year . Still writes and sounds amazing. On a side note. You said something in the 2nd half reaction ( which for some odd reason i listened to first) about Barlow not drumming on this album .But he in fact did play all the drum parts for this album. Just thought you would want to know. Great reaction Lee . It does this old rockers heart good to know that in 2024 there are still young people willing to take the time to explore and connect to the great artist of the past. Great music should live forever.
Very nice reaction. By the way, answering your questions about what reminds you on Black Satin Dancer. By the middle of 1975 Ian Anderson gave an interview and said he was listening a lot Led Zeppelin and Chicago while driving (mainly the only bands he was listening at the time). So, the main riff on this song was probably taken from Led's "Stairway to Heaven" and Chicago's "25 or 6 to 4", and a little Beethoven here and there also.
Ian Anderson doesn't drive. But... there was a time he enjoyed a nice wind-whipped dirt bike ride 'round his Oxfordshire Manor. Also... Tull had toured with Led Zeppelin early in their career. But I really don't see them or Chicago as an influence here. Minstrel is 100% Tull. Cheers! -dugair PDXtc "Ah... David's back! Did you give it a good shake?" "Oh God Dee... You shook it clear off!"
Thank you so much Andrew! I loved this album. These guys are absolute musical geniuses. I love how intimate and detailed every track is. I wish music was still this good.
Its actually Barlow and Jeffery Hammond Hammond, drums and bass. Ironic thing is, Jeffery couldn't "play bass" and had to learn on on the fly. As far as I'm concerned he was a great bass player, this in particular, is incredibly complex and hard to play.
That always amazed me that they claimed he couldn't play bass. As complex a player as he was---how was that even possible?? Talk about natural ability and learning on the fly! I still think that was possibly one of Ian's little sly commentaries /bits of Brit humor ( like him saying 'Gerald Bostock' wrote Thick As A Brick...lol) T @@samuelecallegari6117
As far as I know it wasn't that he couldn't play (as we can all hear) but that he was not a natural bassist in the sense that he had the bass parts written for him and a *lot* of practice was needed for him to learn them. His super power was that he was such a great guy.
@@chefren77 In an interview with Ian Anderson, he said Jeffery couldn't play bass nor was he a musician. Anderson taught him during the Aqualung session. Ian said he was good at mimicking what he was taught. By 75, 4 years later he was a good bass player as you can hear on Minstral
The main point is that if you just listen to a song or two, you aren't going to enjoy the album as it was intended. I think Lee should go back to the beginning to better understand the origin of the band, and how everything happened, the different eras of the band, and how Ian crafted everything. I think during album reactions Lee should have some resources open (wikipedia, lyrics, etc.) so he can answer his own questions (who's playing what). I knew he had done the title song, and enjoyed it, so I wanted him to finish the album, to see that it was a complete work of art, not just a song. Back in the ancient past, when we first listened to these masterpieces we listened to the entire album, Lee should do the same. This is album oriented Rock, after all 🙃.
Im totally down to go back to the beginning and go from there. I tried the Wikipedia thing but people complained that I wasn't paying attention... there's no winning on the internet. Just compromise after compromise 🤣🤣 thank you so much for your support my friend. Part 2 will be out tomorrow morning :) I enjoyed sitting down and listening to the whole album. It was definitely a better experience then bits and pieces.
@@L33Reacts You could read the first paragraph of the wiki (the overview), and then skip down to the listing of musicians, before you start the music. That would be helpful to some listeners, I'm sure.
Happy Thanksgiving to you & yours too,Lee! Thanks for all the cool reactions,bro! Keep 'em coming (especially the Neal Morse related stuff!). Cheers, T
@@L33Reacts Yes on the "25 or 6 to 4", but it's definitely "Babe....." by Zep. Take a listen, you'll see. It IS a fairly basic descending minor pattern, but I don't know of any other Zep song that uses it. The end of "Stairway..." doesn't fit that pattern. Cheers!
@@L33Reacts Love your reactions . I too am a drummer from way back , raised in the Big Band Jazz era (Peter Erskine biggest influence , along with Buddy Rich , Gene Krupa et al...later Billy Cobham , Dave Weckl , Vinnie Colauita , Carl Palmer , Virgil Donati , Jack Dejohnette , Tony Royster Jr. , Gary Novak , Virgil Donati...& So many more...) .

no, it didn't all sound like this. Ian Anderson was THE GREATEST ROCK MUSICIAN OF ALL TIME. No one REMOTELY comes close to his excellence. You also don't know a drummer like Barrie Barlow
A wonderful experiment. One take, no edits...
Ian Anderson, amazing guy...Self taught Classical Guitar and Flute.
One of a kind.
Barriemore Barlow was a monster drummer from that Tull lineup.
My favorite Tull album by far.....brilliant lyrics and musicianship.
Sorry forgot to mention the live version on Bursting Out is outstanding.
So many great Tull albums
Top 5 Tull album for me. Flippin' great.

This & A Passion Play are two of my favorite lesser played Tull Albums

This is such a tremendous album, one of my faves. It was recorded in a short break in their 'Warchild Tour' and they just added the new material to their set-list when they picked up touring again.

Black Satin Dancer: "Where have I heard that bass line before?" I'll tell you where: Chicago's "25 or 6 to 4"!
Is it really?? Someone else said stairway to heaven or something. Maybe it's both lol
@@L33Reacts I'm chuckling .... Many say that the cord progression in Hotel California was lifted from Tull's 'We Used To Know'. Anderson has said that there is a limited number of cord progressions and you're going to run into similarities eventually.
