The perfect follow-up in the trilogy and Songs From The Wood and Heavy Horses could have easily made a double album with the material that was written for both of them. Another one of my fave Tull albums and I might very well give this a BLAST! tonight.
Thank you for watching - enjoy - Phil :)
Hi Phil,very good new shoes,, a best album ,indeed [for me] à nice day for you 🤗
`I just discovered these videos yesterday. I'm loving them. My introduction to Jethro Tull was with Aqualung when it was released, i was 15 at the time. But my all time favorite Tull album is Songs from the Wood, as well as Heavy Horses and Stormwatch.
Hi Brian, welcome to Now Spinning Magazine. So pleased you like these videos. I hope they help others to discover the band and these fantastic box sets. Phil
One of the best band in the history, if not the best.
100% agree with you about Martin Barre. What a splendid guitarist.
Heavy Horses was my first Tull album, bought on release due to Moths being played on South African radio back then. A radical choice for a teen devouring Blondie, The Police, Elvis Costello etc at the time. After that, I was scouring the record shops for their back catalogue.
Probably my favorite Tull album. Songs from the Wood being my second favorite 👌
One Brown Mouse, Moths, Heavy Horses - this is Tull's animals album. Love it. 🙂
And thank God they included " Bursting Out" without the irritating BLEEPING. That actually put me off listening to that album .
Love this and all the other Jethro Tull box sets 😂❤
Another excellent Tull set. Probably my fave of the albums after TAAB. Overall this set is as equally excellent as many Tull sets. Lots of bonus stuff but more of a mixed bag due to some slightly unfinished material
This was my second JT album on Vinyl since Songs From the Woods being my first . .. My third JT album was than Bursting out double Album live all when it was literary released ..
Hi Dominic, thank you for watching. Bursting Out is a fabulous live album! Phil
i missed most of these now am schelling out big bucks for these now i need 5 to complete all of them
Great set, this one. And so nice to have the Berne gig included. I agree, Phil, it would be brilliant to have a deluxe edition of Bursting Out including a few more nights from this incredible tour. Tull at their absolute best!
Hi Clive, thank you for watching. I am sure a live deluxe set is on the list somewhere! Phil
The live album was the first Tull album I had and heard in December 78. It totally blew me away. I never had the album, but have the set now. It's a good album.
Hi Robert, thank you for watching. I can imagine a box set with all the different concerts being made available from this period. Phil
@@NowSpinningMagazine I was very happy with the 75 one included with Minstrel In The Gallery.
Great stuff Phil, really enjoying your insights to these excellent albums, I've managed to snag every edition of these rereleases and I have a shelf dedicated to them on my bookcase, I'm looking forward to see what your thoughts are in regards to the imminent release of The Broadsword & The Beast: Monster edition as it seems like its a treasure trove and a half!
Another great book set, Phil. I bought the Steven Wilson remix on vinyl and it's superb - got a good book with it as well, not as much content as this though (no info on the live tapes, for instance). Let's hope they do reissue these sets. Cheers, Ian
Hi Ian, thank you for watching. I shall be promoting these reviews everywhere once the last one rolls out on Saturday. I do hope it raises awareness of how many music fans still want them! Phil
Hey again Phil, Yes Martin Barre is one of the most underrated , versatile GTR-ists. I really miss his presence on the recent I.A./Tull albums. As you probably know, he does have several solo albums and has been touring (playing a lot of Tull tunes), I have still not heard of the reason on why he left, besides working on his "own projects"?? ...I would guess it was possibly a matter of $$$ also ??, Oh well, his work has been captured, for all of us to enjoy on these discs.
Re Martin Barre ... awesome guitarist .... however, if memory serves from a fairly recent interview with Ian Anderson, I think Ian appeared to have reached the point of being a bit [i.e. totally] frustrated (my interpretation) re Martin's failure to respond to emails in a timely manner, being on time, etc ... just a basic failure to make things as easy, simple and straightforward as possible, logistically, for Ian re running / operating [controlling ?] a band ... it sounded like Ian just got too frustrated one time too many and moved on to working with future [Ian Anderson solo] band members that made his life easier ... clearly it would have had nothing to do with Martin's majestic musical ability ... there may have been other reasons (Ian just fancying a change) but the "too much hard work / hassle" component might have been the catalyst ... at least all of the foregoing is my [potentially inaccurate ?] understanding .... anyway, awesome band, and the era from Sings From the Wood through Broadsword is superb ... pity I missed out on the deluxe Songs From the Wood box set though .... sloppy ....

@@calummcgregor3662 Thanks for the info., getting along with people. both professionally and personally, has its difficulties, especially as the years add up, not to mention the crazy world of show-biz...nothing lasts forever :(...S.F., So. Calif. USA
Hi Stan, thank you for watching. I just started to realise as I have spend most of this month listing to Jethro Tull how amazing Martin Barre is ! Phil
I was late-ish to the Tull box set gig (a failing on my part) but started to get the deluxe sets from Heavy Horses onward ... [pity I missed out on Songs From the Wood - bugger] ... Re Heavy Horses, the re-mix of the studio album is, genuinely, just fabulous and, after repeated listens, has become, I think, my favourite Jethro Tull album ... just superb (then its Broadsword, Songs From the Wood ... closely followed by Stand Up, Thick as a Brick and Crest of a Knave) .... the track Journeyman is a classic example of lesser known Tull tune from Heavy Horses that is just wonderful ... great great album .... the extra tracks in the set are excellent and the concert is a nice complement to Bursting Out ( ... agree that a deluxe version of Bursting Out would be very welcome) ... although I don't have a "fancy" set up I can totally reccomend the modest outlay to allow you to play the BluRay / DVD HiRes version of the studio album on a BluRay pr DVD player then taking the HDMI signal into a video / audio splitter gizmo thingy to get HiRes audio into a DAC to hear the audio in all its glory ... it is worth the effort to hear the album, pretty much, as if in the recording studio ... just fabulous. This has led me to exploring / enjoying other HiRes music on DVD or BluRay without fussing about with 5.1, Dolby Atmos, etc. (Qobuz is also great) ... Great set of videos in this series - thanks ....CMcG, Aberdeen, Scotland ... p.s. looking forward to the reissue of the Thick As A Brick set due in next wee while ... here's hoping a successful reissue sets a precedent for the others ...
Hi Calum, thank you for watching and sharing your in-depth review and thoughts on this album. I am also a fan of Crest of a Knave. The 5.1 mixes are just fantastic. Phil
You KNOW Martin Barre is underrated because his name doesn't even show up in a majority of the "Most Underrated Guitarists of All Time" lists..
What else can you say about Tull.And the sad part is there not in the HOF and you look at who's in it and you just have to shake your head.But anyway I've just been playing Tull day after day driving my wife crazy lol
Hi Thomas, thank you for watching. I have really enjoyed doing this series and the house has been full of Jethro Tull music for weeks now! Phil
Phil. I am ignorant and do not know the work of Jethro Tull. Apart from the Christmas song. How is it that such effort was put into creating these treasures when other bands efforts are so thin in comparison?!
Hi Mr Smith, thank you for watching! I have no idea but I have not met a fan of another band who does not wish their favourite bands had not done a similar thing to their back catalogue. Phil
Any News when Broad Sword is going to be released ???
2023… it’s going to be huge!
Agree Phil. Time for reissues and at least it's about to happen with Thick As A Brick. The insane online prices certainly demonstrate the demand that's out there. The problem might be that they are presumably very low profit sets, in terms of the production costs. I don't think anyone would blanch at £60 a pop for these, maybe even a bit more. Certainly a lot better than the frightening prices these are going for on EBay/Discogs etc. Also agree that Martin Barre is absolutely amazing. When I saw Tull live that was absolutely reinforced.
Hi Chris, thank you for watching. The original pricing and even the reissue price is amazing for what you get. Some labels still don’t get it and with the financial pressures now being felt world wide need to look at pricing and quality. Phil
If you listen to the live disc's you'll hear how good Martin 'Lancelot' Barre is...I rate him above Gilmour by a mile...I've said it now....
Hi Peter, thank you for watching and you are fine to say that! I have been thinking the same since doing this video series. Phil
