Not enough stars available, 22 Nov 2008

This review is from: A Passion Play (Audio CD)

I saw Tull at Wembley on the APP tour and was stunned by what I saw. I had never seen them before, yet was totally mesmerized by the album and all the theatrics.

Yes, we all know about how Ian was disappointed to the point of quitting after the music industry seemingly slated 'A Passion Play', but it has stood the test of time as a remarkable piece of music. Everything blends so well, it is has some of the most incredible interplay (Anderson particularly on soprano saxophone is a brilliant alternative to the usual Jethro sound).

I have loved this album since first hearing it, and could never understand why, it seemed that, everyone else hated it. I'm just glad that time has caught up with me for once!! Okay, it's not an easy listen, but then all good music demands your time. Buy a copy and be enthralled.
