Please don't crucify me on this one folks, but DON'T SAVE A PRAYER on high head headphones sounded awesome back in the day. Listening to it now on YT, I can still hear John Taylor's smooth bass runs on this classic ballad.

Try and enjoy ;)

Great call - was just going to mention Taylor.

Particularly love his work here:

John Glascock a great bass player and a major part of the driving force behind the Jethro Tull rhythm section for a good few years. Died tragically young in 1979.

Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick (Live)


About 2min 44seconds the tempo change is classic the bass is ace. :cheers2

I just made a video of my favourite bass lines. Hope you like it (as much as I, bass player, do). :D

That's why I want to buy that Rickenbacker bass. Brilliant sound!

Well, all those cuts and finding pictures took me about 30 minutes, so not that long.
