Our Take

Ah, Jethro Tull's "Benefit" - a veritable feast for the ears, and possibly the eyes if you fancy a bit of flute action on stage. Famed for their unique fusion of rock and folk, Tull has delivered another solid effort with this album.

Ian Anderson's unmistakable vocals soar above the intricate melodies and complex rhythms, drawing listeners in with his enigmatic storytelling. The band's instrumentation is top-notch, with Martin Barre's guitar work shining brightly throughout the record.

From the hauntingly beautiful "With You There to Help Me" to the rollicking "To Cry You a Song," each track on "Benefit" showcases Tull's unparalleled musicianship and distinctive sound. But let's not forget the real star of the show - Anderson's iconic flute solos that take the listener on a journey through the English countryside.

While some may dismiss Tull as a relic of the past, "Benefit" proves that their music is as relevant and captivating as ever. So sit back, pour yourself a nice cuppa, and let the sounds of Jethro Tull transport you to a realm of musical excellence. Cheers, lads!

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.
