Our Take

JETHRO TULL - Minstrel In The Gallery

Ian Anderson is back with his band of merry musicians in Jethro Tull's latest offering, "Minstrel In The Gallery." This album is like a whimsical journey through a medieval castle, complete with jousting knights and jesters playing lutes.

Anderson's signature flute playing is on full display here, weaving in and out of intricate guitar riffs and pounding drums. The title track is a rollicking good time, with Anderson's vocals soaring to new heights as he tells the tale of a minstrel who just can't seem to catch a break.

But don't let the medieval theme fool you - there's plenty of modern rock sensibility to be found here. Tracks like "Cold Wind To Valhalla" and "Black Satin Dancer" showcase the band's ability to blend folk and rock influences seamlessly.

Overall, "Minstrel In The Gallery" is a delightful romp through Anderson's fantastical imagination. While some may find the medieval motifs a bit cheesy, others will revel in the whimsy and charm of Jethro Tull's latest musical adventure. So grab your goblet of mead and give this album a spin - you won't be disappointed.

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.
