Free Music Notes for Bursting Out

Free Music Review: Jethro Tull's first proper live album is still a must own, 30 years after its original release
Hit: 5 Stars

English prog rockers Jethro Tull's double live album Bursting Out was released in September of 1978.
The Bursting Out album was recorded on the band's 1978 European tour in support of their excellent but underrated album Heavy Horses. This album captures the lineup of lead singer/songwriter and flute player Ian Anderson, guitarist Martin Barre, keyboard player John Evan, drummer Barriemore Barlow, orchestrator/keyboard player David Palmer (now known as Dee Palmer) and bass player the late John Glascock at the top of their game.
We begin with Introduction By Claude Nobs who was one of the top music promoters in Europe. We follow with a stellar intro which gives way to a rocking version of the Heavy Horses album track "No Lullaby" which is a superb version. We follow with "Sweet Dream" which rocks alot harder than the studio version. We then have an acoustic portion starting with an excellent reading of "Skating Away On The Thin Ice". Next is an excellent version of "Jack In The Green" which is always one of my favorite Tull tunes. We then end the acoustic set with another track from the Heavy Horses effort being "One Brown Mouse".
The second side of the album start with an excellent version of "A New Day Yesterday" which has a harder edge than the studio version. Next we get to hear Ian's impressive flute playing on "Flute Solo/God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen/Bouree" and proves why he is rock's greatest flute player. We then have a short but powerful version of "Songs From The Wood". We end the first disc of this stellar two disc album with an excellent but condensed version of "Thick As A Brick". This version rivals the live version from Madison Square Garden found on the TaaB remastered CD from 1998.
The album's second disc and third side starts with an Introduction By Ian Anderson which then goes into a powerful version of the Songs From the Wood album cut "Hunting Girl" which is a killer rocker. Next is an excellent version of the title cut to 1976's Too Old To Rock and Roll To Young to Die. Next is the instrumental called "Conundrum" which is the drum solo spot from virtuoso drummer Barlow proving why Barriemore is an excellent drummer and Martin Barre's riff here showed why he is a great, yet underrated, guitarist. The title cut to 1975's Minstrel In The Gallery is next and is a great version.
The album's last quarter begins with an excellent and heavy version of "Cross Eyed Mary". Next is another exclusive instrumental "Quatrain" which is driven by a killer riff by Barre. We then follow with a killer version of the title track to 1971's Aqualung and is the best version I ever heard though the version from the 1981 video Slipstream (which is a bonus DVD on the remastered re-issue of 1980's A album/CD). Next is a great version of another classic "Locomotive Breath" which just rocks. We end with "The Dambusters March" which gives way into an instrumental which rocks and a reprise of Aqualung to end the album.
Bursting Out upon release reached the US Top 20 and went Gold immediately and rightfully so as this live album just kicks arse beginning to end.
The original US 1990s CD release wrongfully and inexplicably deleted Sweet Dream, Conundrum and Quatrain and much of the stage bantering to fit the album on one CD but this remastered 2-CD set released in 2004 restores the full album to its full length and how one first heard it when they either owned the LP or cassette or 8-track cartridge issue. If you want one live Tull album in your collection, Bursting Out is where to go for the best live Tull performance available.
HUGELY RECOMMENDED!

Bursting Out Poster

In 1978, Having Already Recorded a Decent Bunch of Interesting and Varied Albums, the Members of Jethro Tull Embarked on a Full European Tour, Deciding to Record Each Show in Order to Select the Best Performances from their Best Nights and Create an Album which Would Mark the Breadth of their Output to that Date. The Album was "Live Bursting Out" and it Fully Represents their Cataloge from the Start with "a New Day Yesterday" Through to "Songs from the Wood" which was Released Just a Year Before this Recording, and Much in Between Including "Aqualung", "Conundrum", "Minstreal in the Gallery" and a Reprise of Thick as a Brick". This Time around the Album Will Be Packaged in a Brillant Box with Added Liner Notes and Extra Photos from the Era.
