6765. Jethro Tull - The Lyricon Blues

| From: Stormwatch (2019 40th Anniversary Force 10 Edition); Year: 1979; Genre: Progressive Rock/Blues Rock |
It is another one of those days where I had an album playing in my mind whilst getting ready to make the day's song pick; guess which one?
I'm really getting close to running out of tracks to choose from Stormwatch; if it wasn't for all the "dusted down forgotten recordings" remastered and released a number of years ago, I surely would've by now.
This is an instrumental piece that was left on the cutting room floor that did not make it on to the record or any of the "rare and unreleased" discs in the time between. Whilst it's okay, it definitely is not amongst my favourites from that recording session, but still has that hard, bluesy folk rock sound from the late 1970s. Although, to my ears it sounds as if some instruments were more recently added or dubbed over some of the original tracks; I could be wrong. However, hearing some instruments having that analogue sound and other shimmer as if digitally recorded is quite noticeable, but again, that is wot I hear. Still good and all, but just something that pulls you out of a good listening experience.
