A weathercock is the same as a weather vain on the roof of the house most of the times are made in the shape of a rooster. That's why he mentions the black smith because that's who usually made them.
I love this song as a conclusion song to the album: straight through, each song about an element of life in the country on a farm. The weathercock sits atop it all, seeing all.
To me, "Songs from the Wood" seems like expectation/fantasy, whereas "Heavy Horses" seems like reality. It's the same environment having a different affect on a more mature man.
"Tell us what the blacksmith has done for you..." The blacksmith was central to rural life for centuries and was often believed to have some sort of magical powers, the ability to turn inert metal into all kinds of useful, almost living objects ... including weathercocks.
Weathercock is something like an anticipation of what's on Stormwatch for the thematic of weather and climate. The ending of this song with the flute and guitar "dueling" together in a dance is probably one of my favourite moments in all their discography.
Bullshit. 🥴🙄 Weathercock was just another 'animal' on Ian's farm, so to speak... 🫣 This Ian Martin thing runs through Martin's 43 years of involvement. This was particularly evident live. Weathercock's live versions in were just fantastic... 🥹
Classic Tull album completed. Stormwatch is an underrated album but has great tunes such as North Sea Oil, Orion, Dark Ages, Dun Ringill, Flying dutchman and the Dee palmer composed Elegy.
Did you notice North Sea Oil is in 5/4 time and features claves (tic-tic tic-tic tic) like an homage to Living in the Past? It took me a decades or so to notice that.
I can't wait for you to check out Tull's 1982 album "Broadsword and the Beast." It's pretty underrated but I think it has some of their best compositions, along with the two singles recorded during it but released separately, "Jack Frost and the Hooded Crow" and "Jack-A-Lynn." Definitely worth a listen.
It's sad that so many reaction videos that care about prog miss this album. I love my Genesis and Yes but, for some reason, I always come back to albums like this
I'm happy again Justin and I always love the smile on your face when you hear a Jethro Tull song for the first time. It's so easy to feel good after listening to their music as well as being entertained. ❤
Jethro Tull is such an underrated band, but is one of my favorites, aqualung and Thick as a brick are two masterpieces. Btw are you planning on reviewing more Frank Zappa albums? If so I heavily recommend "The Grand Wazoo", one of the best Zappa's albums and probably my favorite. Also, if you love Zappa's composing style you should listen Mr Bungle, specially the California album.
I told you Jethro Tull would become your new favorite pop group. 😄 Tull's non-album tracks from this era are real gems and really worth listening to. Maybe you can do a bonus tracks marathon someday. Paradise Steakhouse, Good Godmother, Rainbow Blues, Saturation, Summerday Sands, Strip Cartoon, Old Aces Die Hard, Beltane, Crossword, King Henry's Madrigal. It's incredible to have so much great material that didn't even make it on to the albums and sat mostly unreleased for so long.
I always love the slip-beat in the ending which just jolts you out of the standard 4/4 each time through. So glad you enjoyed the album (which is probably my favourite JT album). And yes, rurality is a word :)
I thoroughly enjoyed this journey. Absolutely one of my favorites I put it on from first song and let it play through to the end all the time it's really not that long of a listen and so much to enjoy I'm really glad you found it as enjoyable as I have over the years I've listened to this hundreds of times I just get things stuck I'm not like you who appreciates so many different things I find things I like and stick with them... Thanks again for all you do and for sharing this. I look forward to playing this through a playlist of yours one day soon
loved this man. Ive said it before but its very satisfying to recommend something and see you finally enjoy it as much as i thought you would. This may be PEAK TULL. I'm not as big a fan as some about the storm watch album although i still respect it as well as the cover art ! I have the actual album, but Heavy Horses is the most consistent front to back album they have. I think that 1995's ROOTS TO BRANCHES album is worth exploring next. Ian's voice is very different, but so is his flute play (and its better! unlike his voice unfortunately)
Now that you've finished Heavy Horses, I highly recommend you check out the album, Stormwatch. It's the next album after Heavy Horses and it's the last one to feature Evans, Palmer and Barlow as well as the final recordings of John Glasscock, who passed away during the recording of this album. It's just as good as the last few before it, but it has a unique feel to it. The album cover is indicative of the music, icy cold and beautiful. It's the end of an era for Tull as the next album to come was drastically different.
I don't know which song I like better on this album, the title track or this one. I'm not sure if that's a piccolo or a tin whistle, but whatever it is, I like it.
Barlow's drumming, making it sound like a march, is so important to the overall sound of this track. Sadly, Barlow was not with Tull when they recorded their Christmas album, and his presence is missed on that version of Weathercock. Heavy Horses is my favorite Tull album, and hard to pick a favorite from it.
Or the neglected “Living in the Past”. Although it contains a few tracks from other LPs it has at least a full album of previously unavailable tracks that are some of Ian’s finest.
I agree I saw the Warchild concert extravaganza at MSG / NYC with all the special effects, string section .etc They started the concert just like the album . With sirens, search lights moving all over MSG & explosions coming from theses huge spheres hanging from the ceiling of the Garden . Every minute there was something going on ,what a incredible show . 😎👍
@geneleonard4368 I envy you mate. Being born in '66 i had to wait for the "Broadsword And The Beast" tour. At least i saw the last of the big stage productions! ✌️
War Child is truly an excellent album. It still retains sonic elements from the two previous albums (Thick as a Brick and A Passion Play) such as the saxophone, which Ian Anderson will subsequently stop using, but in a format of short pieces.
Helps to understand the song to know that "weathercock" is the same as the American "weather vane" -- the rooster-shaped iron artifact on the roof that shows you what direction the wind is blowing. ETA: I can't rebut your notion that this is a more mature Songs from the Wood -- as much as I love love love SFTW, this is a tighter album. These 2 are, for me, Peak Tull.
I love those moments when you have a notion of what a word means or refer to and then find out it's a complete other thing 😅 I love this entire album, best one by JT IMO. Closely followed by my first meeting with them (and indeed prog rock), "Songs from the Wood". They hit all here, with excellent rural nostalgia, amazing composing and tremendous musicianship 👌🏼 Have it ofc on original vinyl, and my personal fave I guess must be... impossible to choose 😄
Told ya you'd like it! Weathercock is almost like a prelude to Stormwatch, which is themed around climate, weather and whatnot. While I like the album, I find it to be somewhat of a let down after Heavy Horses, but it does have some gems (particularly "Something's On the Move", "Dark Ages" and "Dun Ringill").
You've definitely stimulated a rediscovery of this album - it's been a neglected one in their catalog for me. Maybe I've seasoned since my last listening, as Ian had by the time of Heavy Horses...
Great album, great review JP!! Also, whilst I'm not usually a fan of bonus tracks, this album has 2 special ones in "Living in These Hard Times" and "Broadford Bazaar" - check 'em out!!
It's Stormwatch after this which a lot of people consider the weak link in the "trilogy," but I like several songs on it (plus the 2004 bonus tracks). There is a bit of a pall over it, it doesn't have the Tull festiveness. John Glascock died. Things fell apart after Stormwatch, culminating in Evan, Palmer and Barlow's departures, and followed by the dreadful A album in 1980.
Martin Barre - the sniper of lead guitarists! Always seems to instinctively just add the perfect little lick when its needed. Genius. Just waiting for your reaction to Flying Dutchman from Stormwatch (Heavy Horses darker & younger sibling). IMHO Stormwatch was the last of the 'classic' JT LPs.
A gem of a song to end the 2nd of the trilogy from the late 70s. Thank you for doing the whole album, love that. I love thé 3rd Stormwatch. You should do that one.
Most important one for you would be *The Mouse Police Never Sleeps* ? (Because you got a mouse police patrolling by you there.) As far as I'm concerned, there's plenty more Jethro Tull from the years that follow, but it's different yet again (just as the prog albums are a change from the blues phase, and the rural albums move on to something different to the prog). I don't think it would do you any harm to listen to *Strange Avenues* out of turn, just to make sure that you've at least heard it once in your life, for instance. ruclips.net/video/MV66IScAik4/видео.html
I see in comments that people are saying Stormwatch, Justin. Broadsword is also a good listen. Both have their merits. I forget when it happened but soon the band will start swapping out members and the music will suffer for it. The difference becomes between being still good and what was once brilliant. There are still some great albums you have skipped over, if you want to go backwards. Jethro Tull will keep you busy. : D Pleased you were jazzed by this album.
Justin, just let me tell you, if I ever meet you, I will give you a massive slap in the face. Ever since I watched your review of "Heavy Horses" it has been going round and round nonstop in my head and is now driving me mad. I love the song but enough is enough. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 PS: A weathercock or weathervane is a metalic object, generally in the form of a cock (male hen, not the other) which sits on the top of a building and turns according to the direction of the wind, thereby indicating the type of weather one might expect.
Very pleasant but my least favorite song on the album due to it being so mellow and straight forward, but all the other songs were a very hard act to follow. Hope you'll check out "Beltane" which was left off the original album for some reason, but very catchy.
@@Owlstretchingtime78 Some fans have poo-pooed Broadsword, I guess because it wasn't from the "glorious '70s". But IMO, it's a wonderful album. Ian has said it contains some of their best work.
“Weathercock” is my least favourite song on the album. It's classic Jethro Tull but it doesn't really resonate with me. My favourite tracks on Heavy Horses are "...And the Mouse Police Never Sleeps", "Acres Wild", "No Lullaby", "Rover" and the title track. Justin, for a next Jethro Tull album, I suggest the excellent War Child (1974), Stormwatch (1979) or A (1980), Each with a different line up !
I'm trying with JT, JP. I'm trying. As a kid I can remember watching Burstin Out on TV and thinkin Wow They Rock. But then the tights and the Flute and Catweazel Posturing put me off. Hearing these songs give off Trad Folk vibes coupled with sophisticated rockist cultured musicianship - so really it's a Non Starter from the Getgo. ... Yet I respect the sincerity of the songwriting with it's yearning for traditional county lifestyles. Ultimately though it comes down to "Does the singin get on my wick?" and also the darn flute....all scurry scurry flurry flurry. Stereotyped Tull I know, but in the end dem the ingredients. But some good heartfelt songs on here. I'd buy it if i saw it in the bargain bin. Diolch. Why not Try some 1979 Judie Tzuke for string soaked anthems of similar sophistication , starting with "Welcome To The Cruise".
@@Owlstretchingtime78 when I was a kid only BBKing made the blues sing. I thought it was really monotonous. I've grown to see the array of styles & personalities that make it refreshing. Frank Marino being my fave. When JP does "this was " I'll give it 100%attention and I'll try to be fair. I played Stand Up a lot in the car but now use my bike!

Heavy Horses is not only one of Jethro Tull's best albums, it's one of the best albums in the history of progressive rock!
Just below Songs From The Wood
To me, "Songs from the Wood" seems like expectation/fantasy, whereas "Heavy Horses" seems like reality. It's the same environment having a different affect on a more mature man.
Great point Hellkat! I agree
"Tell us what the blacksmith has done for you..."
The blacksmith was central to rural life for centuries and was often believed to have some sort of magical powers, the ability to turn inert metal into all kinds of useful, almost living objects ... including weathercocks.
Weathercock is something like an anticipation of what's on Stormwatch for the thematic of weather and climate.
The ending of this song with the flute and guitar "dueling" together in a dance is probably one of my favourite moments in all their discography.
Same here. I never, ever get tired of listening to it.
Bullshit. 🥴🙄
Weathercock was just another 'animal' on Ian's farm, so to speak... 🫣
This Ian Martin thing runs through Martin's 43 years of involvement. This was particularly evident live. Weathercock's live versions in were just fantastic... 🥹
Oh I love that part, so damn epic! Always kind of bummed me out that it feels so short.
Brilliant evocative ending to a Classic album.
Classic Tull album completed. Stormwatch is an underrated album but has great tunes such as North Sea Oil, Orion, Dark Ages, Dun Ringill, Flying dutchman and the Dee palmer composed Elegy.

Oh how I hate this 'underrated album' crap... 🤫
And Steven Wilson did a good job remastering Stormwatch.
A somewhat flawed album with lesser vocals and bland music overall.
As a bass player I still miss John Glascock. But Ian did some great bass work on Stormwatch
Its a weathervane that you have on a roof to tell the wind direction.
Yes, often on the top of a church spire. Although wind direction has never been an issue for me

A Weathercock was the wind direction pointer on any farm building roof. The head of the Cockerel would point the way the wind was blowing.
First Tull album i ever bought. First Tull concert i ever saw. What a way to start! It will always be #1 for me. Live Bursting Out is also top notch.
The weathercock is the rooster on the top of the weather vane, is made by the blacksmith and sees all weather and seasons.
Barlow's drumming, making it sound like a march, is so important to the overall sound of this track. Sadly, Barlow was not with Tull when they recorded their Christmas album, and his presence is missed on that version of Weathercock. Heavy Horses is my favorite Tull album, and hard to pick a favorite from it.
One of my favorite albums from waaaaaaaaayy back! Sometimes being old is not bad. And yup, the weathervane 😊
This was the first Tull album I bought, and still a favorite. As you said, consistent quality throughout.
JT for ever the best.
Joining you for this album reaction has been a true pleasure.
The pleasure is mine Glenn! Ty
Before you move on to their next album, i believe it would be a good idea to take in "Warchild" first. Just a personal opinion Justin! 🤞
Agreed! It's such an underrated and undermentioned album. It's one of my favourites, a seamless mesh of prog and folk.
Or the neglected “Living in the Past”. Although it contains a few tracks from other LPs it has at least a full album of previously unavailable tracks that are some of Ian’s finest.

I'll vote Weathercock as No.1. It's always been my favourite, especially Ian's woodwind parts...

I have bought every Tull album (excluding Passion Play) and have never been disappointed. Amazing tunes, musicians, and themes.

My favorite Tull album, and I definitely place it in my top ten list.
Gorgeous album. Enjoyed going through this fave of mine with you, JP.
I ❤️ HH, but it's still just part of the BEGINNING of your TULL-journey, Justin.
So carry on, my friend... 🙏🏻
Hyped for this one too! Weathercock is in my top 3 favourite Tull songs of all time. I'll comment again after I've watched it. :)

While I like the album, I find it to be somewhat of a let down after Heavy Horses, but it does have some gems (particularly "Something's On the Move", "Dark Ages" and "Dun Ringill").
My personal favourite Tull album is Broadsword and the Beastie which is a bit more synthy but still rocky and proggy. I love it!
Slow Marching Band...great song... say no more
You've definitely stimulated a rediscovery of this album - it's been a neglected one in their catalog for me. Maybe I've seasoned since my last listening, as Ian had by the time of Heavy Horses...

A weathervane that looks like a rooster
If you really like the album Heavy Horses, try a song that was supposed to be on the Lp, but was left off.
It’s called Botanic Man.
