Songs From The Wood

Jethro Tull

Chrysalis Records, 1977

REVIEW BY: Riley McDonald

ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED: 07/29/2004

In 1977, Tull was pretty much a folk-rock band. They had slowlybeen progressing away from the prog-rock genre, and Songs From The Wood would galvanize their position as afolk-rock band.

This is quite possibly Anderson and co.'s most "fun" album todate. Songs like "Jack-in-the-Green" and "The Whistler" are laidback folky tunes that still retain a powerful melody.

Anderson's flute is used quite liberally throughout the record,adeptly showcasing his talent on it. While not as up-front oraggressive as some of his passages on Aqualung, they're beautifulin a whole different way.

However, for all the good found on this album, it has someshortcomings. The one that I find most obvious is the lack ofMartin Barre's electric guitar assault. The only song where it canbe heard in abundance is on the eight-minute "Pibroch (Cap inHand)," which I find to be a disappointing song. While we do get ataste of Barre's guitar prowess, the actual track is very slow anduninteresting.
