Format:Audio CD
This is a compilation of live performances from all over the world. For the most part though, it hangs together well - although I was personally disappointed that they included a few heavier songs to the otherwise very polite and (like it says on the front) 'light' collection. This is all that loses the album that 5th star though - and that's hardly fair, is it?

The material was recorded while Ian Anderson was having real voice problems, resulting in lots of extended musical interludes and more of the instrumental versions of classic songs than had ever appeared on tour before. Something which of course makes this CD all the more worth having. A typical problem with the songs on live albums from bands with wrinkles is that most fans have the studio recording, at least one or two older live recordings, probably a remastered version and maybe even a DVD version too. On a little light music, you'll buy really very different versions of Living in the Past, Pussy Willow and the like.

In summary then, a must-have for Tull fans and a good introduction to others who might find this an easy way in to Tull's music.

Jethro Tull's 1992 live album A Little Light Music finds the band later into their career than their more famous live album Bursting Out. It may not be the most famous of Tull releases but is worth checking out for existing fans who want something they haven't heard a hundred times before as the band are largely playing quieter tracks with the selection of songs taken from various locations around the world as opposed to from a single complete concert.

This album does feature a few exceptions to the lighter/quieter formula however, such as 'Rocks On The Road,' and 'Locomotive Breath,' (albeit with reduced speed and distortion) but overall the release is not about big riffs, unbridled energy and rock fury but rather laid back entertainment, hence the album title.

The tracks can have a very different feel than their original studio versions, with many more instrumental sections and solos, in some cases extending their overall length by minutes such as the completely instrumental but utterly enjoyable rendition of 'Living In The Past,' which is basically a five minute flute solo or the very different version of 'A New Day Yesterday,' which takes the fan-favourite song in a few unexpected directions.

In addition to most of the songs having a different feel, the track listing includes a lot of tracks that wouldn't just be on every Tull live album or hits-compilation, adding some extra level of interest to fans. Tracks like 'From A Deadbeat To An Old Greaser,' 'One White Duck,' 'This Is Not Love,' 'Nursie,' and 'Under Wraps,' aren't going to be on many other releases and that gives the record a little uniqueness at least.

Overall, This is not really the first Jethro Tull album you should buy, not even the first Jethro Tull Live Album that you should buy (the aforementioned arguably Bursting Out holds that honour) but there is certainly a lot of worth on the record and it is something that Tull fans will find enjoyable, even the fact that the tracks aren't from one single concert doesn't detract from the album's quality, balanced and smoothly flowing as it is.
