2447 Jethro Tull - Two Fingers

From: War Child; Year: 1974; Genre: Progressive Rock
I had this song running through my mind this morning and, as I usually do, I thought I would pick it.
This one's kind of a light-hearted, tongue-in-cheek take on the on what happens in the afterlife. Ian is as cynical as always, but for me the music and its arrangement is the main draw; I love Ian's saxophone playing on this one as well as the thumping bass line.
Interestingly enough, this one is a rewrite/re-imagining of a song titled Lick Your Fingers Clean, which was originally recorded for the Aqualung album three years prior, but was left off the final release for some reason. You can hear Lick Your Fingers Clean here on YouTube.
