Our Take

Martin Barre's latest album "Roads Less Travelled" is a sonic journey through the winding lanes of rock and roll, with plenty of unexpected twists and turns along the way. As the longtime guitarist for Jethro Tull, Barre is no stranger to pushing musical boundaries, and this album is no exception.

From the opening track "Lone Wolf," Barre sets the tone with searing guitar riffs and catchy hooks that immediately draw you in. With each song, he takes you on a different path, exploring everything from bluesy ballads to hard-hitting rock anthems. It's like a musical road trip where you never know what's around the next bend.

One standout track is "Out of Time," a haunting ballad that showcases Barre's emotional depth as both a guitarist and a songwriter. The delicate interplay between his guitar and the mournful lyrics creates a sense of melancholy that is both beautiful and heartbreaking.

Throughout the album, Barre's virtuosic guitar playing shines, reminding listeners why he's considered one of the best in the business. His solos are blistering and precise, weaving effortlessly in and out of each song like a master storyteller.

Ultimately, "Roads Less Travelled" is a testament to Barre's unwavering passion for music and his willingness to explore new sounds and styles. It's a wild ride that is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. So buckle up, roll down your windows, and hit the road with Martin Barre. You won't regret it.

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.
