Free Music Notes for Best of Acoustic
Free Music Review: "Songs from the wood" &"Minstrel in the Gallery" a bit forgotten here!!
Hit: 3 Stars
By focusing on the acoustic stuff by Jethro Tull you need to listen also to the best unplugged material by Ian Anderson in his fine solo albums...here a couple of songs from his solo works are well represented - and of course it could be the controversial aspect of such a self-tribute album concerning J.T. only, talking about their long career ...actually the most orginal song is not a typical J.T. tune, because for me the track dedicated to the famous Isle of Sky in Scotland, entitled "Dun Ringill", was written for the "Stormwatch" album in 1979 (not their most known album) usually not performed live! Moreover the track performed live in Denmark, entitled "Pastime With Good Company", has been already executed by Blackmore's Night in a better manner and such a controversial consideration prevents me to give this "The Best of Acoustic J.T" an high score..nevertheless I like to mention the "poor" tribute to their important folk prog/classic rock album such as "Songs from the wood" and "Minstrel in the Gallery", here represented by a couple of songs only!!
Anyway you can add another half star at least
Free Music Review: Hoping for more
Hit: 3 Stars
When I heard that Jethro Tull was coming out with an all acoustic CD, I could hardly wait. I was hoping for a nice flow of some re-mixed and/or updated acoustic material. But alas, the quality is as if the songs were taken right off the "older" albums and put directly on the CD. It's nice to have a lot of my favorites on one CD, but I just can't get past the fact that I was "hoping for more crispness" in the guitar strings.Free Music Review: The "Best" (sic) Acoustic Jethro Tull...and yet they left off the 4 very best - sad
Hit: 1 Stars
I rate this one star so the curious will read and know what they are missing.
I love all of their music...almost to a song.
This "acoustic" CD has a list of 24 songs that people, even for the first time, will enjoy for years.
Sadly, the four best acoustic songs ever recorded by Jethro Tull were on the same album/cd that "Fat Man" was taken from....Stand Up (still my all time favorite Tull album/cd.) Buy this one TOO, and listen to:
Look Into The Sun
Back To The Family
Reasons For Waiting
We Use To Know.
Sue me if I'm wrong.
