Our Take

JETHRO TULL's "Warchild" (40th Anniversary Theatre Edition) is a delightful romp through the whimsical world of Ian Anderson and his band of merry minstrels. From the opening notes of "War Child," you can tell this album is something special. Anderson's flute playing is as nimble as ever, weaving in and out of Martin Barre's crunchy guitar riffs like a mischievous sprite in the forest.

The songs on this album are a mix of heavy rock, folk, and prog, creating a unique and captivating sound that is unmistakably JETHRO TULL. Tracks like "Bungle in the Jungle" and "Skating Away on the Thin Ice of a New Day" showcase the band's knack for combining catchy melodies with intricate arrangements.

The 40th Anniversary Theatre Edition of "Warchild" includes a treasure trove of bonus material, including live recordings, unreleased tracks, and a beautifully remastered version of the original album. It's like unwrapping a present from a distant relative who always knows exactly what you want.

If you're a fan of JETHRO TULL, or just a lover of good music, then "Warchild" is a must-have addition to your collection. It's a timeless classic that has only gotten better with age, much like a fine wine or a really stinky cheese. So sit back, relax, and let the music take you on a journey through the imagination of one of rock's greatest storytellers.

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.
