It's nearly impossible to discuss the history of rock music without
praising the monumental quality, impact, variety, and boldness of
Britain's Jethro Tull. Named after an eighteenth-century
agriculturalist - and not after their striking frontman Ian
Anderson - the group almost immediately became one of the most
ambitious, and significant acts in two subsections of the genre:
progressive rock and folk rock. Officially formed in 1967,
mastermind Anderson and company initially forged a blues course
before veering in a more diverse, and expansive direction. Their
early 1970s period - which is often considered their peak-took them
close to progressive rock via iconic album cuts like `Aqualung' and
lengthy narrative suites like Thick as a Brick and A Passion Play.
Moving album by album, this book will examine the behind-the-scenes
circumstances and motivations for each release via a track-by-track
analysis to acutely observe why Jethro Tull were - and always will
be - of invaluable benefit to rock music.
