Right behind you!
Re: Jethro Tull

Honestly, I only like Aqualung (the song). Other than that, I haven't found anything they put out that interested me. But Aqualung is great, especially that killer guitar solo in the middle. That guitarist did it in one take!

At least you like One of Tull's albums PF,,,I have noticed over the years that people either really enjoy Ian Anderson's vocals/songwriting a lot or not at all, sort of like Yes a very polarizing band.

I will post the next album tomorrow morning, I got sidetracked the last couple of days.

Re: Jethro Tull

There was issued a limited edition cassette for "Steel Monkey" together with a small badge and a competition form - you had to complete a crossword to win.
