Our Take

JETHRO TULL's "A Passion Play" gets a sparkly makeover in this new Steven Wilson mix, and boy, does it shine brighter than a pair of leather trousers under a disco ball. Wilson, whose magic touch has rejuvenated classics from the likes of Yes and King Crimson, works his wizardry on this prog rock masterpiece, giving it a fresh coat of paint that screams "I'm ready for my close-up!"

From the haunting flute solos to the epic guitar riffs, every note on this album feels like a rollercoaster ride through a psychedelic dreamscape. Ian Anderson's vocals sound crisp and clear, like he's whispering sweet nothings in your ear while doing a jig on one leg (yes, the man truly is a legend).

The mix itself is as clear as a freshly polished mirror, allowing each instrument to shine through without overpowering the others. It's like stepping into a time machine and being transported back to the glorious heyday of 70s prog, complete with all the bells and whistles (literally, there are bells and whistles on this album).

So put on your finest velvet cape, pour yourself a goblet of mead, and let JETHRO TULL's "A Passion Play" take you on a mystical journey that will leave you wondering why you ever doubted the power of prog rock. This mix is a masterpiece, and Wilson deserves a round of applause for breathing new life into an old classic. Bravo!

About the artist

Jethro Tull

JETHRO TULL: The Flute-Wielding Wizard of Prog-Rock If you ask any music aficionado to name a band with a flautist as their frontman, chances are the first name that pops into their head is Jethro Tull. Led by the enigmatic Ian Anderson, Jethro Tull has been pushing the boundaries of rock music since the late 1960s, infusing their sound with folk, blues, and a healthy dose of whimsical storytelling. Anderson himself is a true musical polymath, effortlessly switching between flute solos that will make your jaw drop and vocals that can range from a gentle whisper to a full-on rock scream. And let's not forget his signature move of standing on one leg while playing the flute - a feat that has left many a fan scratching their heads in wonder. But it's not just Anderson's musical prowess that makes Jethro Tull stand out. Their albums are a masterclass in storytelling, with concept albums like "Thick as a Brick" and "Aqualung" taking listeners on a journey through surreal worlds and thought-provoking narratives. And let's not forget their epic live performances, complete with elaborate stage setups and Anderson's iconic stage presence. So, whether you're a die-hard prog-rock fan or just someone looking to expand their musical horizons, Jethro Tull is a band that should be on your radar. With their unmatched musicianship, whimsical storytelling, and one-legged flute-playing frontman, Jethro Tull is a force to be reckoned with in the world of rock music.
