2567 Jethro Tull - Working John, Working Joe

From: A; Year: 1980; Genre: Progressive Rock/Electronic Rock

Oh noes! I'm picking yet another band from the Jethro Tull! Oi vay, what a huge surprise.  :P
Anyway, as per usual this song was running through my mind, so I picked it; no other surprise there. I don't know why, but I've always loved the A album where most 'Tull fans despise it; while it's by no means their bast effort, it's still a great record that I usually listen to all the way through. This song is one that heralds back to the economic problems of the late 1970s and early 1980s a tells the trials and tribulations of a working class Joe Schmoe and an upper class individual; a very neat track and the music is great too albeit with a lot of electronica.
