My Dad owned this.
The album sleeve had a full on newspaper folded up inside - the front page is shown on this video. Completely fictional nonsense news.
I had that CD, all 45 minutes of this song, while in college in the 90s. I love this song and the rock flute. I lost the CD.
I had been married about a year. My wife was laughing about how I know all the lyrics to every song she'd ever heard of. She came in excited one day that she finally found a song I wouldn't know the lyrics for. She had bought this CD at a record store and put it in the player smiling.
She walked away after the first five minutes, but I finished singing along to the entire song. She walked into the room on occasion over the next 40 minutes rolling her eyes.
I really don't mind if you sit this one out.
They won the Grammy award for best hard rock band. Suck it Metallica.
I legendary album. I binge this stuff on the daily. You have good taste
Tull released a studio album every year from 1968 to 1980. The music they released over the ten year period from 1969 to 1979 is probably my all time favorite music. Sadly, many people overlook them today.
And the sand castle virtues are all swept away.
In the tidal destruction, the moral melee
The elastic retreat rings the close of play
As the last wave uncovers the newfangled way
But your new shoes are worn at the heels
And your suntan does rapidly peel
And your wise men don't know how it feels
To be thick as a brick
Such a fantastic piece of music.
My dad owns the LP, and used to be my favorite as a child aged 6-10.
