Our Take

Martin Barre’s latest album, 'Order of Play', is a playful romp through the world of rock and roll, showcasing Barre's undeniable skill and charm. From the opening track to the closing notes, Barre effortlessly weaves intricate guitar solos with catchy hooks, creating a sound that is uniquely his own.

The album kicks off with the infectious "Bad Man," a song that sets the tone for what's to come. Barre's vocals are smooth and soulful, perfectly complementing the driving guitar riffs that are sure to get your head bobbing.

Tracks like "Skating Away" and "Sweet Dream" showcase Barre's versatility as a musician, effortlessly transitioning between bluesy ballads and hard-hitting rock anthems. The standout track, however, has to be "Happening All Over Again," a fast-paced tune that will have you dancing in your seat.

But what truly sets 'Order of Play' apart is Barre's ability to seamlessly blend genres, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and fresh. This is an album that will appeal to fans of classic rock, but also to those looking for something new and exciting.

Overall, 'Order of Play' is a triumph for Martin Barre, proving that he is not just a talented guitarist, but a formidable songwriter and performer. So grab a pint, put on your dancing shoes, and get ready to rock out to this fantastic album. You won't be disappointed.

About the artist

Martin Barre

Martin Barre, the legendary guitarist best known for his work with Jethro Tull, is a true maestro of the strings. With his distinctive blend of blues, folk, and rock, Barre has cemented his place in rock history as a virtuoso musician with a flair for the unexpected. Born in Birmingham, England, Barre began his musical journey at a young age, honing his craft in local bands before joining Jethro Tull in 1969. Over the next four decades, he helped shape the band's sound, contributing iconic riffs and solos to classic albums like Aqualung and Thick as a Brick. Despite his vast experience in the industry, Barre remains refreshingly humble and down-to-earth, often joking that his guitar playing is just a "nice distraction" from his true passion of gardening. But make no mistake, when Barre picks up his trusty Gibson Les Paul, he transforms into a rock god, unleashing blistering solos that leave audiences in awe. In addition to his work with Jethro Tull, Barre has released several solo albums that showcase his eclectic musical tastes and innovative approach to the guitar. Whether he's shredding through a heavy blues riff or delicately plucking a folk melody, Barre's playing is always engaging and unpredictable. With his trademark blend of technical prowess and artistic vision, Martin Barre continues to captivate audiences around the world, proving that age is just a number when it comes to rocking out. So grab your air guitar and get ready to be blown away by the one and only Martin Barre.
