Song 245 (Jethro Tull--"Beltane")
Happy Beltane, or May Day as it be; for this reason I decided on picking this song today. This was originally recorded in the late 70's during the Songs From The Wood/Heavy Horses period, but did not make the final cut. It was later released on the 20 Years of Tull boxed set and as a bonus track on the remastered version of the "Songs From The Wood" album. It gives some of the imagery of the earlier Gaelic Beltane Festivals. The musicianship, as with most other 'Tull song is extremely good and quite brooding.
Here is the studio version on YouTube.
