| Jethro Tull – Jack-a-Lynn Lyrics | 4 years ago |
| Ian Anderson is a Celtic folk rock poet. His lyrics lend themselves to many possible meanings. That, plus the brilliant music to which they are an accompaniment, is what makes them so unique, original, and memorable. Jethro Tull are one of very few Rock bands whose music is instantly recognisable. Ian Anderson created a niche for himself with his genius, and there is literally no-one like him in the field of rock music. One thing you will never be when listening to Tull is bored, because of the variety, complexity, depth, and range of their music. No one writes like, or sounds like, Ian Anderson. He shunned the American monopoly on vocal sound and phrasing, and created his own, distinctly English (and Scottish) diction, syntax, and poetry. Don't get too analytical about musical genius. Just enjoy it; be enriched by it; and tell your friends. | |
